New Co-op Game 'Split Fiction' by Hazelight Studios Promises Innovative Screen-Splitting Gameplay
October 22, 2024Known for their focus on cooperative gameplay, Hazelight's previous titles, including 'A Way Out' and 'It Takes Two,' required two players with no single-player option.
Reliable dataminer billbil-kun has leaked the title 'Split Fiction,' suggesting it will feature dynamic screen-splitting gameplay.
The game is expected to include innovative split-screen mechanics, allowing for horizontal, vertical, and diagonal divisions.
The development of 'Split Fiction' has been underway for at least two years and is being published by EA Originals.
Creative director Josef Fares recently confirmed on social media that the project is a new intellectual property and expressed excitement about revealing more soon.
Hazelight Studios plans to unveil more details about 'Split Fiction' during their 10th anniversary celebrations in November.
In a past interview, Fares promised that the next game would be a positive surprise and something truly impressive.
'It Takes Two,' released in 2021, has sold over 20 million copies and won multiple awards, including Game of the Year at the 2021 Game Awards.
Additionally, a feature film adaptation of 'It Takes Two' is in development at Amazon Prime Video, with Dwayne Johnson involved.
Hazelight Studios is developing a new co-op game titled 'Split Fiction,' following the success of their acclaimed title 'It Takes Two.'
The success of 'It Takes Two' has established Hazelight as a leader in cooperative gameplay.
Fares previously described the new project as a 'surprise in a good way' and indicated it would be 'something really cool.'
