Hazelight Studios continues to stand out in the gaming industry with its unique approach to cooperative gameplay. Their innovative feature, where only one player needs to purchase the game while two can play together, remains a rare gem that has helped the studio carve out its own niche. While previous titles from Hazelight were highly praised, they missed one key element—crossplay, which seemed like a perfect match for their co-op focused games.
Exciting news for fans: Hazelight's upcoming game, Split Fiction, will indeed feature crossplay, and the developers have officially confirmed this feature. In line with their tradition, the Friend’s Pass system will be implemented, allowing two players to enjoy the game with just one copy purchased, though both players will need an EA account to play.
In a move that's sure to drum up even more excitement, Hazelight has also announced a demo version of Split Fiction. This demo will let players experience the game's cooperative play firsthand, and the best part? Any progress made in the demo can be seamlessly carried over to the full version of the game.
Split Fiction promises to immerse players in a variety of intriguing settings while focusing on the essence of human relationships—simple yet profound. Mark your calendars, as the game is set to launch on March 6 and will be available on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series, offering a rich co-op experience to gamers across different platforms.
