Split Fiction Preorder Bonus

How Does Split Fiction’s Friend’s Pass Work?
*Split Fiction* is designed for co-op gameplay only, with no single-player option. You can enjoy it in couch co-op split-screen mode on one display or connect with friends online for a seamless experience across different platforms, including PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.
To play online with a friend, they simply need to download the free "Split Fiction - Friend’s Pass" from their preferred digital marketplace on or after the game's release date, March 6. After receiving an invite from you, your friend can dive into the game without any additional cost. This feature echoes Hazelight’s previous titles, *It Takes Two* and *A Way Out*, where a non-paying player can join the fun but must always play alongside someone who owns the full game.
What Is Split Fiction?
*Split Fiction* is an action-adventure game where two players, each embodying a writer—one specializing in sci-fi, the other in fantasy—are drawn into their own narratives. Teamwork is key as you combat foes and tackle puzzles in diverse settings inspired by both genres. Imagine racing on Tron-like motorcycles and navigating gravity plates in one level, then transforming into fantasy creatures in an enchanted forest in another.
The game also introduces "side stories" accessible through portals within levels. These are engaging minigames, such as riding a Dune-inspired "sand fish" through deserts or water skiing behind a drone across the sea.
