Split Fiction Reviews
One of this year's most anticipated offerings was, without a doubt, Split Fiction, a new game that could only have come from the mind of Josef Fares and his entire team at Hazelight Studios. After what we saw with It Takes Two, the bar was set pretty high, and it's time to talk about everything […]

Split Fiction is truly a blast to play and is one of the only games this year that I recommend to everyone. Needless to say, 2025’s Game of the Year discussion just got even more complicated with Split Fiction.
In the end, you won't even know how the 15 hours of Split Fiction have flown by as you immerse yourself in worlds of boundless imagination. Perhaps no game has ever offered so many ideas at once. Yes, not everything works 100%, and occasionally something could use a little more attention, but it's still an experience you'll enjoy and return to again and again.

Split Fiction is fantastic. The story and characters are great thanks to the nuance sprinkled throughout to give everything and everyone some unexpected depth. The constant switching of various genres keeps the game fresh, since none of the tales linger for too long, and the same can be said for the various gameplay additions in conjunction with the solid platforming. Combined with the cross-platform play and accessibility features to ensure that everyone can get through the title, the only reason to not pick up Split Fiction is if you despise co-op play. For everyone else, grab this early contender for "Best Of" lists for 2025.
Cooperation at the highest level with interesting stories of the main characters and a bit silly main plot, but.... how it all comes together well. The finale will make you want to play again. At least a second time.

Split Fiction goes beyond just another great co-op game from Hazelight; it reignites the importance of couch co-op. It's a reminder that truly memorable co-op experiences are built in the living room, sharing laughter, brainstorming, and emotional moments together. This game is a grand spectacle of co-op.
A game that proves, once again, Hazelight's undisputed skill with cooperative dynamics: who knows if there will ever be a limit for this studio.

With a story that mixes fantasy and science fiction, varied mechanics and a more challenging difficulty, Split Fiction manages to innovate within the genre without losing the essence of Josef Fares. Its visual beauty, the depth of its characters and the unique gameplay make every moment special. It is not only a tribute to the studio's previous titles, but an evolution that shows that the coop mode still has a lot to offer.

Whether you're being propelled through the air with the power of pig farts or tearing up thanks to an emotional reveal, Split Fiction is so densely packed with hilarity, heart, and hectic action that you'll never forget every moment you spent playing it with a friend. 📚
Split Fiction is the fruit of years of experience in co-op gaming, and the Hazelight team, led by Joseph Fares, once again proves that they are the best in this category. Each level of the game is stunningly creative, both visually and in terms of puzzle design, requiring focus and cooperation with your partner to progress through the adventure.

Being able to play a co-op game with someone else feels right as it provides a sense of togetherness that is rare to come across these days. Split Fiction reiterates this need to tell stories that can be experienced and enjoyed alongside others.
If this is your first time playing Split Fiction, this is a great entry point. Everything that made the original work is intact, and the portability adds a lot if you’re planning on co-op sessions in short bursts. If you already played the game elsewhere, though, this version doesn’t bring new content or technical upgrades. It’s the same game, rebuilt to run smoothly on a smaller screen. That might be enough for a second run with someone new, but it won’t feel fresh if you’ve seen it all before.
Split Fiction is pure joy for two players: a heartwarming, hilarious, and entertaining adventure that oozes creativity with its myriad mechanics. While there are some downgrades, the Switch 2 version is visually very competent and is a must-have for console owners looking for new multiplayer experiences.

Split Fiction on Nintendo Switch 2 doesn’t quite hit the same technical highs as its Xbox debut, but the story, tension, and gameplay are top-tier.
