Hazelight's beloved co-op adventure, Split Fiction, has achieved an impressive milestone, selling nearly four million copies. This news was confirmed by publisher EA in its latest financial results, highlighting the game as a "hugely successful launch" and crediting it as a key factor in their strong financial performance at the end of the 2025 fiscal year.
"4 MILLION SOLD!!!!" Hazelight proudly announced on social media. "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, delivering a groundbreaking co-op experience that allows two players to enjoy the game even if only one owns it. Launched in March, the game has quickly become another hit for Hazelight and its designer, Josef Fares, selling over 2 million copies in just a week. It's also set to be a Nintendo Switch 2 launch title as Hazelight begins work on its next project.
Additionally, a movie adaptation of Split Fiction is in development. Story Kitchen, the studio behind the Sonic films, is spearheading the project and is currently assembling a team of writers, a director, and the cast, which will include Sydney Sweeney.
In our IGN Split Fiction review, we described the game as "an expertly crafted and absorbing co-op adventure that pinballs from one genre extreme to another," noting that it "is 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."
