The world of couch co-op gaming has seen a remarkable rise in recent years, with Hazelight Studios leading the charge with their innovative titles. Their latest creation, *Split Fiction*, continues the studio's tradition of emphasizing cooperative gameplay. But can you dive into *Split Fiction* solo?
Can You Play Split Fiction By Yourself?
In keeping with Hazelight Studios' signature style, *Split Fiction* is all about teamwork, whether it's through online or couch co-op. Unfortunately, this means that flying solo through *Split Fiction* isn't an option. There's no AI companion to assist you, and even if you have multiple controllers, the game's demand for precise timing and coordination makes solo play nearly impossible.
However, for those eager to experience the game, there's a convenient solution. The Friend's Pass feature allows you to play with a partner, either locally or online, and it's cross-platform compatible. This means that whether your friends are on PlayStation, Xbox, or PC, you can all enjoy *Split Fiction* together, as long as one person owns the game.

Hazelight's consumer-friendly approach with the Friend's Pass is a testament to their commitment to enhancing the gaming experience. It's an excellent way for your friends to try *Split Fiction* in co-op mode before deciding to purchase it themselves.
That's all you need to know about playing *Split Fiction* solo. Remember, *Split Fiction* is set to release on March 6 on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.
