Split Fiction is a co-op action game for two players that has a unique twist: you can always see what your companion is doing. Moreover, the gameplay will constantly shift between a sci-fi environment and an alternative one, with one player playing frequently in one and their partner in the other.

With the game’s launch just around the corner, there is no official news announcement stating that Split Fiction will be unavailable on Xbox Game Pass. However, the absence of mentions of Game Pass in the trailers and the lack of Game Pass eligibility information on the Split Fiction Xbox Store page almost confirm that Split Fiction will not be available on the Game Pass.

It has become a common trend in the gaming industry to delay the launch of games for subscription services, primarily to boost the game’s initial sales. For example, It Takes Two was released in March 2021 but was unavailable for Game Pass until November 2021. Similarly, Hazelight Studio’s upcoming title, Split Fiction, is expected to be dropped for Xbox Game Pass later in the year. Keep an eye out for the official announcement for more information.

Also, Split Fiction supports cross-play and features a co-op mode. Therefore, if you purchase the game, another player can download it via the friend pass at no extra cost.
