Hazelight's beloved co-op adventure, Split Fiction, has achieved a remarkable milestone by selling nearly four million copies. Publisher EA highlighted this achievement in their recent financial report, describing the game's launch as "hugely successful" and crediting it as a significant factor in their strong performance at the end of the 2025 financial year.
In an enthusiastic social media post, Hazelight celebrated the news, exclaiming, "4 MILLION SOLD!!!!" They expressed gratitude to the community, stating, "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 crafted by two fiction writers, offering a groundbreaking co-op experience where two players can enjoy the game even if only one owns it. Launched just in March, the game quickly became another hit for Hazelight and designer Josef Fares, achieving over two million sales within the first week. It's also set to be a launch title for the Nintendo Switch 2 as Hazelight begins work on their next project.Additionally, a film 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's "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."
