Split Fiction doesn’t need to be original when the co-op play is this good

Split Fiction is a straightforward co-op adventure that strings together disparate sci-fi and fantasy games like links on a chain.

The overarching narrative that connects them all is a pretty heavy-handed parable about the rapaciousness of generative AI tools and the creative bankruptcy of the executives that develop them.

The game takes so many little gameplay elements that I've seen and done before and executes them with brilliance and polish .

While Split Fiction’s story is largely forgettable, we both enjoyed its telling.

The game is littered with references to so many other games, and it was fun pointing them out.

The gameplay was simple but required a level of cooperation that was deeply satisfying to pull off.

Split Fiction launches March 6th on Xbox , PlayStation , and PC.
