Split Fiction: Co-op Adventure Nears 4 Million Sales

Hazelight's beloved co-op adventure, Split Fiction, has surpassed nearly four million copies sold, marking a significant milestone for the game. Publisher EA highlighted this achievement in their latest financial results, describing Split Fiction's launch as "hugely successful" and attributing it as a key factor in the strong financial close to the 2025 fiscal year.

"4 MILLION SOLD!!!!" Hazelight celebrated on social media, expressing their gratitude and excitement. "So many of you have picked up Split Fiction already, it’s amazing… Seeing the fun you have with our game and the love you show for Mio, Zoe, and each other warms our hearts here at Hazelight. And so many hot dogs made…"

Split Fiction immerses players in the diverse worlds of two fiction writers through a groundbreaking co-op experience that allows two players to enjoy the game even if only one owns it. Launched in March, the game has proven to be another triumph for Hazelight and its visionary designer, Josef Fares, selling over 2 million copies within its first week. The game is also set to be a launch title for the Nintendo Switch 2, as Hazelight continues to develop its next project.

Adding to the excitement, a film adaptation of Split Fiction is in development with Story Kitchen, the studio behind the Sonic movie franchise. They are currently gathering writers, a director, and have confirmed Sydney Sweeney as part of the cast.

In our IGN review of Split Fiction, we praised the game as "an expertly crafted and absorbing co-op adventure that pinballs from one genre extreme to another," noting that it 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."
