Some of my fondest childhood memories revolve around playing cooperative games with friends during summer vacations. As an adult, the magic of summer somehow feels different - whether it's the pressures of adult life or the scarcity of quality couch co-op experiences, I can't quite tell. But occasionally, a remarkable game emerges that recreates that unbridled happiness from simpler times.
Split Fiction (PS5)
Originally $49.99 | Save 30% | Now $35.00 at Amazon
Split Fiction, the newest release from Hazelight Studios (creators of It Takes Two), debuted earlier this year with another extraordinary co-op adventure built exclusively for two players. Remarkably, just months after launch, the PS5 and Xbox Series X|S versions have dropped to only $35 during Prime Day. Act fast though - this sale concludes tonight at midnight PT.
Following in the footsteps of It Takes Two (winner of Game of the Year at The Game Awards 2021), Split Fiction appears destined to become another instant classic. Maintaining the studio's signature approach, this split-screen adventure supports both local and online cooperative play, complete with a Friend Pass system that lets you and a partner play with just one purchased copy.
The game delivers unforgettable moments that demand careful teamwork as players navigate between sci-fi and fantasy realms. Our review awarded it a 9/10, praising how "Split Fiction masterfully maintains engagement - it evolves so dynamically that boredom never sets in." Its excellence has already secured a spot on our Best Games of 2025 list.

Should I play It Takes Two first?
While both games share DNA, Split Fiction stands completely on its own with an original narrative and characters. Newcomers can dive in without prior experience, though series veterans will appreciate clever references and callbacks.
