Solo Play in Split Fiction: Is It Possible?

In recent years, couch co-op games have seen a remarkable resurgence, and Hazelight Studios has consistently stood at the forefront of this trend. With their latest title, *Split Fiction*, the studio continues to shine a spotlight on cooperative gameplay. But what if you're eager to dive in solo? Here's everything you need to know about playing *Split Fiction* alone.

Can You Play Split Fiction By Yourself?

True to Hazelight Studios’ signature style, *Split Fiction* is designed as a co-op experience from the ground up—whether online or via local couch co-op. Unfortunately, this means there’s no solo mode or AI-controlled partner to assist with the challenges. The game demands precise timing and coordination between two players, making it practically unplayable alone. Even if you try using multiple controllers, the level of synchronization required will likely prevent meaningful progress.

However, there's good news for solo players looking to find a partner. Hazelight includes a convenient solution through the Friend’s Pass system, which supports both local and online co-op. Better yet, it’s cross-platform enabled, allowing friends across PlayStation, Xbox, and PC to play together seamlessly—as long as one person owns the game.

The Friend’s Pass supports cross-platform play, so whether you’re connected via PlayStation Network, Xbox Live, Steam, Epic Games Store, or EA app on PC, you can team up effortlessly. Additionally, invites can be sent directly through your EA Friends list, making the process even smoother.

This consumer-friendly feature remains one of the standout elements of Hazelight’s games, offering a low-barrier entry point for friends who are curious but not yet ready to commit to a full purchase.

That’s all you need to know about solo play in *Split Fiction*. If teamwork makes the dream work, then this game is definitely best enjoyed with a partner.
