Hazelight Studios continues to stand out in the gaming industry with its unique approach to cooperative gaming. Their innovative feature, where only one player needs to purchase the game for two to play together, remains a distinctive aspect that sets them apart. While this "Friend's Pass" system has not been widely adopted by other developers, it has allowed Hazelight to carve out a unique niche. The only notable limitation in their previous titles was the absence of crossplay, which seemed like a perfect match for their co-op focused games.
Exciting news for fans: Hazelight has officially confirmed that their upcoming game, Split Fiction, will support crossplay. This means players on different platforms can enjoy the game together, enhancing the cooperative experience. The Friend's Pass system will return, allowing two players to enjoy the game with just one purchase, though both will need an EA account to play.
In addition to crossplay, Hazelight has announced a demo version of Split Fiction. This demo offers players the chance to experience the game's cooperative gameplay firsthand, and any progress made in the demo can be carried over to the full version of the game.
Split Fiction is set to take players on a journey through diverse settings, but at its heart, the game will explore simple yet profound human relationships. Mark your calendars: Split Fiction is slated for release on March 6 and will be available on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series, promising a deeply engaging co-op experience.
