Split Fiction, the new game from It Takes Two developer Hazelight Studios, doesn’t do anything particularly new. The game is a straightforward co-op adventure that strings together disparate sci-fi and fantasy games like links on a chain.

Split Fiction” pushes the limits of genre and co-op gameplay in an imaginative adventure through two wildly different worlds.

Hazelight Studios follows up It Takes Two with another stellar co-op experience, delivering genre-bending fun in Split Fiction.

Playing through Split Fiction's mix of fantasy and sci-fi worlds is a refreshing experience in the often-lonely world of gaming.

After a quick turnaround from a game reveal in December 2024 to full release in March 2025, Hazelight is back again with another entry into their rich two-player history with Split Fiction. Let's just get this out of the way early — Split Fiction does look and feel like It Takes Two in more ways than any of the studio's previous games before.

Split Fiction is one of the most innovative couch co-op games to come from Hazelight Studios, knocking it out of the park once again.

Writers Zoe and Mio must learn to work together while surviving the unfathomably creative worlds born out of their own imagination.

Split Fiction is pure gaming brilliance. The type of experience only this medium can afford and only true masters can cultivate.
