In recent years, the allure of couch co-op games has grown, and Hazelight Studios has been at the forefront with their exceptional titles. Their latest offering, *Split Fiction*, continues to emphasize cooperative play. Here's the scoop on whether you can enjoy *Split Fiction* solo.
Can You Play Split Fiction By Yourself?
Like all other Hazelight Studios games, *Split Fiction* is designed for teamwork, whether you're playing online or engaging in couch co-op. Unfortunately, solo play is not an option. There's no AI companion to assist you, and even if you have multiple controllers, the game's requirement for precise timing and coordination makes solo play nearly impossible.
However, there's a great solution for those looking for a play partner. The Friend's Pass feature supports both local and online co-op and is cross-platform enabled. This means that friends on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC can join in the fun together, as long as one of you owns a copy of *Split Fiction*.

If you own *Split Fiction* and need a partner since solo play isn't available, 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 the entire game together.
The Friend's Pass is compatible across platforms, so whether you're connected via PlayStation Network, Xbox Live, Steam, Epic Games Store, or the EA app on PC, you can easily team up. Even the EA Friends list can serve as a way to send invites.
Hazelight's consumer-friendly approach remains one of the best aspects of gaming. If your friends are hesitant about trying the game, the Friend's Pass provides an easy way for them to experience *Split Fiction* in co-op before making a purchase.
That's all you need to know about playing *Split Fiction* solo.
*Split Fiction* is set to release on March 6 on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.
