Mar 4, 2025Split Fiction could very well be the best cooperative game I've ever played. At the very least, I firmly believe it sets a new standard for the genre. And yet, it's more than that. Split Fiction is a love letter to creativity--to stories, games, and the people who make them. It is funny, dark, joyous, childish, tender, cheesy, thrilling, and remarkable. All this combined with gorgeous environments, fantastic gameplay, and sheer spectacle make Hazelight Studio's newest release an early contender for the best game of 2025.

Mar 24, 2025Ultimately all of its component parts come together to make a game that needs to be played primarily because of how it feels. How it feels to play and how it feels to discover the bits of joy both big and small. There's no other way to do it justice.

Mar 4, 2025Split Fiction is one of the best narrative co-op games available. Hazelight once again proved that they are the masters of the genre by eliminating virtually all the shortcomings of their previous game, It Takes Two. At the same time, the developers have managed not to lose their distinctive style, delivering a title that is fun, at times challenging and above all, bursting with creativity.

Mar 17, 2025Split Fiction feels more like a 9-hour movie than a true co-op game. Interaction is limited, and the multiplayer experience is among the worst. Compared to its predecessors, it lacks depth and creativity, making it repetitive. While its PC optimization is solid, it ends up being a forgettable game rather than a truly remarkable experience.
