Split Fiction Hits 2 Million Sales After Just 1 Week

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

Just 48 hours after launch, Split Fiction had already sold 1 million copies. The remaining million were sold in the subsequent five days, showcasing incredible momentum.

Given Split Fiction's co-op nature, the actual player count significantly surpasses the number of copies sold. This is further amplified by the game's Friend's Pass feature, allowing one player to purchase the game and grant free access to a friend. With continued social media buzz, the 2 million sales figure is expected to climb.

This success echoes Hazelight's previous title, It Takes Two, the 2021 Game of the Year winner. It Takes Two sold approximately 1 million copies within weeks of its March 2021 launch, eventually reaching 10 million by February 2023 and an astounding 20 million by October 2024.

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