- Split Fiction cannot be played solo as the game is meant to be experienced by two players together.
- There is no option to turn your AI companion into another player as well.
- If you are seeking another player to play, you can join Hazelight’s official discord server to meet new players.
If you are a gamer who loves to play co-op games, then I bet you must have played A Way Out and It Takes Two. The GOTY award-winning studio, Hazelight, is returning after four years with another blockbuster co-op title called Split Fiction. However, not everyone has a friend or partner ready to dive in once the game releases tomorrow. Thus, if you are wondering whether you can play Split Fiction solo, keep reading to find out if you can finish the co-op game all on your own.

If you are curious whether you can join a co-op session with random players online in-game akin to Elden Ring: Nightreign , then the answer is the same: No. Split Fiction can be played by two friends or partners locally offline or online by inviting the other.

Hazelight Studios proved why they are one of the best and gamer-friendly studios by presenting the gamers worldwide with a “ Friend’s Pass .” All you need is a single copy of the Split Fiction game and invite your friend/partner with the pass.
After you both have downloaded the game, you can start your kick off your adventures together on any platform.
If your friends are too busy or you don’t have anyone to play with, there is a helpful solution. Ahead of the game’s release, the studios joked about shipping a real human friend along with a copy of the game. Fortunately, they have started a separate channel, “ sf-looking-for-player ,” on the official Hazelight Studios Discord server to help players who are looking for one more player to enjoy their latest game.

Hazelight Studios’ latest co-op game, Split Fiction, is a masterpiece packed with easter eggs and surprises. It’s been some time since the game came out, and two players have discovered an ultra-secret level that is extremely hard to beat. After successfully overcoming the secret challenge, a big surprise awaited the players from Josef Fares, the director of Hazelight Studios.
Many gamers (including myself) failed to uncover the secret as the developers cleverly hid a binary code puzzle at the Isolation level. However, players ”sharkOvO and E1uM4y” cracked the puzzle and unlocked the secret challenge level called “ Laser Hell .”
As the name implies, this level features exceptionally difficult platforming across lasers which can make your journey hell. You can watch the challenge in this uploaded video by the players:
Upon completion, the players were rewarded with a special clip of Josef Fares congratulating the players in-game. Josef remarked that this is the hardest level of Split Fiction yet, saying, “ You have to understand this challenge. There are barely any people on our team that can make it. It took us a lot of time to finish it, and I’m telling you, this is a crazy, crazy achievement you have done.”
At the end of the clip, Josef promised to take the first players to Hazelight Studios in Sweden and give them an exclusive look at their next game if they can prove they were the first people to complete this secret level. Staying true to his words, Josef tweeted on X, congratulating the players once again and confirming he would be fulfilling his initial promise.
Therefore, players sharkOvO and E1uM4y will soon be flying to Hazelight Studios to test the upcoming game. Josef has also promised that they will be awaiting more surprises at the studios.
