Split Fiction Garners Universal Acclaim Across Review Platforms

Impressive Aggregate Score of 91 from Diverse Critic Reviews

Split Fiction Achieves a Stellar 91 on Metacritic, Marking EA's First 90+ Score in Over a Decade

Hazelight Studios' latest masterpiece, Split Fiction, has captivated both critics and players alike, securing a remarkable 90+ average score across multiple review platforms. This achievement marks the first time in over a decade that an EA-published game has reached such heights, the last being Mass Effect 3 back in 2012, which boasted a 93 on Metacritic.

Since then, other notable EA titles like Battlefield in 2016, It Takes Two in 2021, and Dead Space in 2023 have come close but failed to break the 90+ barrier. In contrast, Split Fiction has not only achieved a 91 score on Metacritic, earning the coveted Metacritic Must-Play tag and universal acclaim from 84 critic reviews but also secured a 90 on Open Critic, labeled as "Mighty" by the platform.

Here at Game8, we've given Split Fiction an outstanding score of 90 out of 100. The game's captivating levels, engaging storyline, and the sheer joy of exploring its world with friends have left us thoroughly impressed.
