Split Fiction is Hazelight’s next co-op adventure

Split Fiction is the latest co-op title from Brothers and It Takes Two‘s Josef Fares and Hazelight.

The title puts you into the shoes of two aspiring writers — one with a fantasy background, and the other a sci-fi one.

“They meet this new tech company that can simulate their stories to life. They are amateur writers that get their hope to get their stories published. But once they get there, shit goes a bit sideways, and they get stuck in the same simulation. And they’re total strangers,” Fares told VentureBeat.

“They don’t know each other. It’s kind of a buddy movie (story), you could say,” Fares continued. “It’s about two total strangers that end up in the same simulation. But the thing is, one of them writes sci-fi, while the other one writes fantasy. So you’re going to be jumping between a fantasy level and a sci-fi level and you play their own written stories.”

As per usual, two friends can play after purchasing only a single copy.

Expect Split Fiction from 6 March 2025 on Windows PC, Xbox, and PlayStation.

About the author

Steve Wright

Steve's the owner and Editor-in-Chief of Stevivor.com, the country’s leading independent video games outlet. Steve arrived in Australia back in 2001 on what was meant to be a three-month working holiday before deciding to emigrate and, eventually, becoming a citizen.

Stevivor is a combination of ‘Steve’ and ‘Survivor’, which made more sense back in 2001 when Jeff Probst was up in Queensland. The site started as Steve’s travel blog before transitioning over into video games.

Aside from video games, Steve has interests in hockey and Star Trek, playing the former and helping to cover video games about the latter on TrekMovie.com. By day, Steve works as the communications manager of the peak body representing Victorians as they age.
