The world of couch co-op gaming has seen a remarkable evolution in recent years, with Hazelight Studios leading the charge with exceptional titles. Their latest offering, *Split Fiction*, is set to continue this trend by focusing intensely on cooperative gameplay. Here's what you need to know about playing *Split Fiction* solo.
Can You Play *Split Fiction* By Yourself?
As with all Hazelight Studios' previous games, *Split Fiction* is designed with cooperation in mind, whether through online play or couch co-op. Unfortunately, this means that solo play is not an option for *Split Fiction*. There is no AI companion to assist you, and the game's mechanics require precise timing and coordination that would be nearly impossible to manage alone, even with multiple controllers.
However, for those eager to dive into *Split Fiction* but lacking a partner, there's a convenient solution. The Friend's Pass feature allows you to play with a friend, either locally or online, and it supports cross-platform play. This means that if you own *Split Fiction*, you can invite friends on PlayStation, Xbox, or PC to join you, even if they don't own the game themselves.
How Does the Friend's Pass for *Split Fiction* Work?
- Own *Split Fiction* on any platform.
- Ask your partner to download the Friend's Pass on their chosen platform.
- Send an invite for your session to your friend.
- Enjoy playing the entire game together.
The Friend's Pass is compatible across platforms, so whether you're connected via PlayStation Network, Xbox Live, or through Steam, Epic Games Store, or the EA app on PC, you can team up with friends on different systems. Even the EA Friends list can be used to send an invite.
Hazelight Studios' consumer-friendly approach with the Friend's Pass is a testament to their commitment to enhancing the gaming experience. For those unsure about purchasing *Split Fiction*, this feature offers a risk-free way to try the game in co-op before making a decision.
That's all you need to know about the possibility of playing *Split Fiction* solo. Remember, *Split Fiction* releases on March 6 on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.
