**Split Fiction** immerses players into the diverse worlds crafted by two fiction writers, offering a groundbreaking co-op adventure where two players can enjoy the game even if only one owns it. Launched in March, the game quickly became a hit, selling over two million copies within just one week. It's also set to be a launch title for the Nintendo Switch 2, as Hazelight begins work on their next project.In addition to its gaming success, Split Fiction is being adapted into a movie. Story Kitchen, the studio behind the Sonic films, is currently assembling a team of writers, a director, and a cast that will feature Sydney Sweeney.
IGN's review of Split Fiction praised it as "an expertly crafted and absorbing co-op adventure that pinballs from one genre extreme to another." They noted that the game offers "a rollercoaster of gameplay ideas and styles that are usually discarded as quickly as they’re introduced. This keeps it fabulously fresh for its full, 14-hour duration."
