Author:Kristen Update:May 16,2025

Hazelight's beloved co-op adventure, Split Fiction, has achieved an impressive milestone by selling nearly four million copies. Publisher EA highlighted this achievement in their latest financial report, describing the game's launch as "hugely successful" and crediting it as a key factor in their strong finish to the 2025 financial year.

In a jubilant social media post, Hazelight celebrated the news, stating, "4 MILLION SOLD!!!! 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…"

Play**Split Fiction** immerses players in the diverse worlds crafted by two fiction writers, offering a groundbreaking co-op experience where only one player needs to own the game for two to play. Launched in March, it quickly became another hit for Hazelight and designer Josef Fares, selling over two million copies within just one week. The game is also set to be a launch title for the Nintendo Switch 2, as Hazelight begins work on their next project.

Additionally, a movie adaptation of Split Fiction is in development, with Story Kitchen, known for their work on the Sonic films, currently assembling the writing team, director, and cast, which will include Sydney Sweeney.

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