Hazelight's beloved co-op adventure game, Split Fiction, has achieved a remarkable milestone by selling nearly four million copies. This impressive figure was confirmed by publisher EA in its latest financial results, highlighting the game as a key contributor to a strong finish for the 2025 financial year. EA described the launch of Split Fiction as "hugely successful."
In response to this news, Hazelight took to social media to express their excitement, posting, "4 MILLION SOLD!!!! So many of you have picked up Split Fiction already, it’s amazing… Seeing the fun you have with our game and the love you show for Mio, Zoe, and each other warms our hearts here at Hazelight. And so many hot dogs made…"
Split Fiction immerses players in the diverse worlds crafted by two fiction writers, offering a unique co-op experience where two players can enjoy the game even if only one owns it. Launched in March, the game quickly became a hit, selling over two million copies within its first week. It's also set to be a launch title for the Nintendo Switch 2, as Hazelight begins work on their next project.
Adding to the excitement, a movie adaptation of Split Fiction is in development, with Story Kitchen, known for their work on the Sonic films, currently assembling a team of writers, a director, and a cast that will include Sydney Sweeney.
In our IGN Split Fiction review, we praised the game as "an expertly crafted and absorbing co-op adventure that pinballs from one genre extreme to another," noting that it's "a rollercoaster of gameplay ideas and styles that are usually discarded as quickly as they’re introduced. This keeps it fabulously fresh for its full, 14-hour duration."
