The rise of couch co-op games has been a notable trend in recent years, and Hazelight Studios has consistently delivered some of the best experiences in this genre. Their latest title, Split Fiction, continues to champion co-op gameplay. Here’s the scoop on whether you can enjoy Split Fiction solo.
Like all previous titles from Hazelight Studios, Split Fiction is designed with cooperative play at its core, whether that's online or through couch co-op. Unfortunately, for those hoping to go solo, Split Fiction does not support single-player mode. There's no AI companion to assist, and even with multiple controllers, the game's need for precise timing and coordination makes it nearly impossible to progress alone.
However, if you're looking for a co-op partner, there's a convenient solution. The Friend’s Pass system allows both local and online co-op, and is cross-platform compatible. This means players on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC can join in, as long as one person owns Split Fiction.

If you own Split Fiction and are seeking a partner, you can easily invite someone from any platform to join the fun. Here's how it works:
The Friend’s Pass is cross-platform, so whether you're connected via PlayStation Network, Xbox Live, Steam, Epic Games Store, or the EA app on PC, you can team up with someone for this new adventure. Even the EA Friends list can be used to send an invite.
Hazelight's consumer-friendly approach continues to be a highlight in gaming. If you have friends who are hesitant about purchasing the game, the Friend’s Pass offers them a chance to experience Split Fiction in co-op before making a decision.
That covers everything you need to know about playing Split Fiction solo.
Split Fiction is set to release on March 6 on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.
