How Does Split Fiction’s Friend’s Pass Work?
Split Fiction is designed exclusively for co-op play, with no single-player option. You can enjoy it through couch co-op on a single screen or online co-op with just one copy of the game, and it supports cross-platform play. This means you and your friend can team up even if you're on different consoles or PC platforms.
To play online with a friend, have them download “Split Fiction - Friend’s Pass” from their preferred digital marketplace once the game releases on March 6. This pass is free and allows your friend to join you in the game after you send them an invite. Hazelight Studios has successfully implemented this feature in their previous games like It Takes Two and A Way Out. The only condition is that your friend can't play without partnering with someone who owns the full game.
What Is Split Fiction?
Split Fiction is a two-player co-op action-adventure game where players control a pair of writers—one crafting sci-fi and the other fantasy—who find themselves trapped within their own fictional universes. Together, the players must combat enemies and solve puzzles in environments inspired by their respective genres. You might ride Tron-style motorcycles and manipulate gravity in one level, then transform into mythical creatures in a magical forest in another.
The game also features portals to "side stories," which are minigames offering unique experiences, such as riding a "sand fish" through deserts reminiscent of Dune, or water skiing behind a drone over the sea.
