Split Fiction: Co-op Adventure Nears 4 Million Sales

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

"4 MILLION SOLD!!!!" Hazelight jubilantly announced on social media. "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 in an innovative co-op adventure. Notably, the game supports two players even if only one owns the copy. Launched in March, it quickly became another triumph for Hazelight and designer Josef Fares, selling over 2 million copies in just a week. The game is also slated to be a launch title for the Nintendo Switch 2 as Hazelight progresses on its next project.

Adding to the excitement, a movie adaptation of Hazelight's game is in development. Story Kitchen, known for their work on the Sonic films, is currently assembling a team of writers, a director, and the cast, which will feature Sydney Sweeney.

In our IGN Split Fiction review, we described 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."
