Split Fiction will be the first Hazelight game with crossplay support

Hazelight Studios continues to stand out in the gaming industry with its unique approach. One of their signature features is the Friend's Pass system, where only one player needs to purchase the game, yet two can enjoy the co-op experience together. This innovative system has not been widely adopted by other developers, allowing Hazelight to maintain a distinct niche. However, a notable limitation in their earlier titles was the absence of crossplay, which seemed like a perfect addition to their cooperative gameplay model.

Exciting news for fans: Hazelight has confirmed that their upcoming game, Split Fiction, will include crossplay. This means players on different platforms can join forces, enhancing the cooperative experience. The Friend's Pass system will return, allowing one player to buy the game while both participants play, provided they both have an EA account.

In a move to further engage the community, Hazelight has announced a demo version of Split Fiction. This demo offers players the chance to experience the game's cooperative mechanics firsthand. Importantly, progress made during the demo can be transferred to the full game, ensuring a seamless transition for those who decide to purchase.

Split Fiction aims to explore a range of diverse settings while keeping the focus on meaningful human connections. Set to launch on March 6, the game will be available on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series, promising an engaging experience for players across these platforms.
