Split Fiction Hits 2 Million Sales After Just 1 Week

Hazelight Games' latest co-op adventure, Split Fiction, is enjoying a phenomenal start, selling 2 million copies in its first week. Released on March 6th for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S, the dual-protagonist story quickly became another triumph for the studio. Hazelight celebrated this strong launch on social media, expressing their amazement at the overwhelming support from both new and returning fans.

Just 48 hours after launch, Split Fiction had already sold 1 million copies. An additional million copies were sold in the following five days, showcasing the game's remarkable momentum.

The game's co-op nature means the actual player count is significantly higher than the number of copies sold. Further boosting its appeal is the Friend's Pass feature, allowing one player to purchase the game and grant free access to a friend. With continued positive social media buzz, the 2 million sales figure is expected to climb even higher.

Hazelight's previous title, the 2021 Game of the Year winner It Takes Two, saw similar success, selling approximately 1 million copies within weeks of its March 2021 launch. This number soared to 10 million by February 2023 and an impressive 20 million by October 2024.

IGN's review of Split Fiction praised it as "an expertly crafted co-op adventure that pinballs from one genre extreme to another."
