Hazelight has been teasing that it was working on its highly-anticipated follow-up to It Takes Two and at 2024’s Game Awards, it revealed all about what’s next from the EA Origianl studio. Split Fiction, a title that clearly aims to take what people loved about It Takes Two and take it to the next level. Even better, the wait between the full reveal and Split Fiction’s release is a relatively short one.

Split Fiction builds on It Takes Two in some seriously impressive ways.
Split Fiction will be released on March 6, 2025, on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. No mention of a Nintendo Switch release, nor will Hazelight’s next game be coming to last-gen consoles. Pre-orders are already starting to go live for the co-op game, and everywhere you can commit to a copy so far, along with everything else you need to know about placing your pre-orders, can be found below.
Where To Pre-Order Split Fiction
As it stands, there is only one edition of Split Fiction. No deluxe or collector’s editions to choose between which on the one hand is a little disappointing for those who would have been willing to spend a little more to get some extras, but on the other hand, it keeps things simple. Just place your pre-order and sit tight until March 6 gets here and you can start playing.
The price of Split Fiction might be the best part of its reveal and is possibly a detail that passed you by until reading this. Hazelight’s next game costs just $50, a full $20 cheaper than what has become the industry standard during this generation. Naturally, there’s no word yet on just how much game you’ll be getting for that, but I feel fairly confident that Split Fiction will comfortably be $50 worth of game.
Split Fiction
Split Fiction is a unique action-adventure experience that keeps you on the edge of your couch with unexpected moments. It’s weird, it’s wild, and it’s designed to be shared, so grab your co-op partner and get ready to overcome any obstacle thrown your way.
One Copy Of Split Fiction Between Two People
Okay, the $50 price tag for Split Fiction isn’t the very best thing about the game, although the only thing better is price tag adjacent. One of the biggest reasons It Takes Two has been such a huge success is you only need one copy between two people. Even if you are on opposite sides of the world, you can play It Takes Two with someone without both of you needing to own the game.
Hazelight has retained that very popular feature for Split Fiction. It appears its co-op will function the same way as It Takes Two. You will be able to play it with someone in person via couch co-op or online with someone even if they don’t own the game. All of that to look forward to and not long to wait as Split Fiction will be released on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC on March 6, 2025.
