The rise of couch co-op games has been a fascinating trend, and Hazelight Studios has consistently delivered some of the finest experiences in this genre. Their latest endeavor, *Split Fiction*, is poised to continue the studio's tradition of spotlighting cooperative gameplay. But can you enjoy *Split Fiction* on your own?

Can You Play Split Fiction By Yourself?

Consistent with Hazelight Studios' previous titles, *Split Fiction* places a strong emphasis on teamwork, whether through online or local couch co-op. Unfortunately, for those hoping to go solo, *Split Fiction* does not offer a single-player mode. There's no AI companion to assist you, and even with multiple controllers, the game's requirement for precise timing and coordination makes it nearly impossible to play alone.

However, if you're eager to dive into *Split Fiction* but lack a partner, there's a straightforward solution. The Friend’s Pass feature supports both local and online co-op and is cross-platform compatible. This means you can team up with friends across PlayStation, Xbox, and PC platforms, provided one of you owns the game.

How Does the Friend’s Pass for Split Fiction Work?

If you own *Split Fiction*, inviting a partner to play with you is simple, regardless of the platform they use. Here's how to do it:

• Own *Split Fiction* on any platform.
• Ask your partner to download the Friend’s Pass on their preferred platform.
• Send an invite to your friend for your game session.
• Enjoy the full game together.

The Friend’s Pass is versatile, working across PlayStation Network, Xbox Live, Steam, Epic Games Store, and the EA app on PC. You can even use your EA Friends list to send an invite.

Hazelight Studios' consumer-friendly approach with the Friend’s Pass remains a highlight in gaming. It's an excellent way for friends who are unsure about the game to try it out in co-op before making a purchase decision.

That covers everything you need to know about playing *Split Fiction* solo. Remember, *Split Fiction* is set to release on March 6 across PlayStation, Xbox, and PC platforms.
