The rise of couch co-op games has been a fascinating trend in recent years, and Hazelight Studios has consistently delivered some of the best experiences in this genre. Their latest project, *Split Fiction*, continues to spotlight the joy of co-op play. But can you dive into *Split Fiction* solo?
Can You Play Split Fiction By Yourself?
Like all other titles from Hazelight Studios, *Split Fiction* is designed with cooperative gameplay at its core, whether you're playing online or enjoying couch co-op. Unfortunately, this means that solo players won't be able to experience the game on their own. There's no AI companion to assist, and even with multiple controllers, the game's need for precise timing and coordination makes solo play nearly impossible.
However, there's a convenient solution for those seeking a partner. The Friend’s Pass allows for both local and online co-op and is cross-platform compatible. This means that friends on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC can join the fun together, as long as one player owns a copy of *Split Fiction*.

If you own *Split Fiction* and are looking for a partner since solo play isn't an option, you can invite someone from any platform to join you. Here's how it works:
- Own *Split Fiction* on any platform.
- Ask your partner to download the Friend’s Pass on their chosen platform.
- Send an invite for your session to your friend.
- Enjoy the entire game together.
The Friend’s Pass is compatible across platforms, so whether you're connected via PlayStation Network, Xbox Live, or through Steam, Epic Games Store, or the EA app on PC, you can team up with someone for this new adventure. Even the EA Friends list can be used to send an invite.
Hazelight's consumer-friendly approach remains one of the best aspects of gaming. If your friends are hesitant about trying *Split Fiction*, the Friend’s Pass offers them a chance to experience the co-op gameplay before making a purchase.
That’s all you need to know about playing *Split Fiction* solo. Remember, *Split Fiction* releases on March 6 on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.
