At the 2024 Game Awards, Hazelight revealed Split Fiction, the studio’s follow-up toIt Takes Two. The co-op game, which combines sci-fi and fantasy, will once again be published under EA’s Originals Label. It launches on March 6, 2025, for PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC.

Like Hazelight’s previous games, Split Fiction is a narrative adventure game built exclusively around co-op play. It follows Mio and Zoe (named after director Joseph Fares’ daughters), two aspiring writers who join a publishing company that can bring their writing to life. One is a sci-fi writer, while the other specializes in fantasy, so both worlds come to life in a clash of styles. It’s similar in structure toIt Takes Two, but with more spectacular production value and a wealth of surprising side missions. Buying a copy of the game will grant that owner a Friend Pass that will allow one other person to download it as well.

Ahead of its reveal, I sat down with Fares, who took me on an eclectic tour of Split Fiction. The wide demo showcased the game’s genre-hopping co-op action, which once again gives each player completely different abilities to play with in each chapter. It’s an impressive step up from It Takes Two considering its three-and-a-half-year development cycle and ambitious tech. What’s the secret to Hazelight’s success?

“We f**k sh*t up without f**king up,” Fares tells Digital Trends.
