The rise of couch co-op games has been a notable trend in recent years, with Hazelight Studios leading the charge with exceptional titles. Their latest venture, Split Fiction, continues to champion the co-op experience. Here's the scoop on whether you can dive into Split Fiction solo.
Can You Play Split Fiction By Yourself?
Consistent with Hazelight Studios' previous releases, Split Fiction focuses heavily on cooperative gameplay, either online or via couch co-op. Unfortunately, this means solo players are out of luck. There's no AI companion to assist, and even with multiple controllers, the game's precise timing and coordination requirements make it nearly impossible to progress alone.
However, if you're keen on playing, there's a simple solution. The Friend’s Pass allows you to enjoy both local and online co-op across platforms. Whether your friends are on PlayStation, Xbox, or PC, as long as one of you owns Split Fiction, you can all play together.

How Does the Friend’s Pass for Split Fiction Work?
If you own Split Fiction, inviting a friend to join you is straightforward, regardless of their platform. Here’s how:
- Own Split Fiction on any platform.
- Ask your partner to download the Friend’s Pass on their platform of choice.
- Send an invite for your session to your friend.
- Enjoy playing the entire game together.
The Friend’s Pass is cross-platform compatible, so whether you're connected via PlayStation Network, Xbox Live, or through Steam, Epic Games Store, or the EA app on PC, you can easily team up. You can even use the EA Friends list to send an invite.
Hazelight's consumer-friendly approach with the Friend’s Pass is a standout feature in the gaming world. It's an excellent way for friends to try out Split Fiction in co-op before deciding to purchase.
That’s all you need to know about playing Split Fiction solo. Remember, Split Fiction releases on March 6 on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.
