Hazelight Studios continues to distinguish itself in the gaming industry with its unique approach to cooperative gameplay. Their innovative feature, where only one player needs to purchase the game for two to play together, remains a rare gem in the market, securing Hazelight's niche. However, their earlier titles faced a significant limitation: the absence of crossplay, which seemed a perfect match for their co-op focus.
Exciting news for fans: the upcoming title, Split Fiction, will finally introduce crossplay. The developers have officially confirmed this eagerly awaited feature. Additionally, the game will retain the beloved Friend’s Pass system, allowing two players to enjoy the game with just one copy purchased, though both will need an EA account.
Hazelight is also rolling out a demo version of Split Fiction, enabling players to experience the game together before committing to a purchase. What's more, any progress made in the demo can be seamlessly transferred to the full game, ensuring a smooth transition for those who decide to buy.
Split Fiction is set to immerse players in a diverse array of settings, all while delving into the core theme of simple yet profound human relationships. Mark your calendars, as the game is slated for release on March 6 and will be available on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series.
