The rise of couch co-op games has been remarkable in recent years, and Hazelight Studios has consistently delivered some of the best experiences in this genre. Their latest title, *Split Fiction*, continues to champion the spirit of co-op play. If you're wondering whether you can enjoy *Split Fiction* solo, here's the scoop.
Can You Play Split Fiction By Yourself?
As with all Hazelight Studios' games, *Split Fiction* focuses heavily on cooperative play, either online or through couch co-op. Unfortunately, this means that solo play is not an option. There's no AI companion to assist you, and even if you have multiple controllers, the game's need for precise timing and coordination makes it nearly impossible to progress alone.
However, there's a convenient solution for those seeking a partner. The Friend’s Pass allows for both local and online co-op and is cross-platform compatible. This means that friends on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC can join the fun, as long as one player owns a copy of *Split Fiction*.

If you own *Split Fiction* and are looking for a partner, you can invite someone from any platform to join you. Here's how it works:
- Own *Split Fiction* on any platform.
- Ask your partner to download the Friend’s Pass on their chosen platform.
- Send an invite for your session to your friend.
- Enjoy playing the entire game together.
The Friend’s Pass is compatible across platforms, so whether you're connected via PlayStation Network, Xbox Live, or through Steam, Epic Games Store, or the EA app on PC, you can team up with someone for this new adventure. You can even use the EA Friends list to send an invite.
Hazelight's consumer-friendly approach remains one of the best aspects of gaming. If your friends are hesitant about trying *Split Fiction*, the Friend’s Pass offers them a chance to experience the game in co-op before making a purchase.
That’s all you need to know about playing *Split Fiction* solo. Remember, *Split Fiction* releases on March 6 on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.
