Split Fiction Earns 91 on Metacritic - EA's First 90+ Rated Game in 12 Years
Split Fiction has shattered expectations, becoming EA's first title to break the 90+ barrier in twelve years. Discover why critics are raving about this groundbreaking release and what Hazelight Studios is saying about their creation.

Critics Universally Praise Split Fiction

Metacritic Consensus Scores 91 - A Rare Feat for EA

Split Fiction Achieves Rare 90+ Rating on Metacritic
Hazelight Studios' innovative co-op adventure has taken the gaming world by storm, achieving the prestigious 90+ average score across major review platforms. This marks the first time an EA-published game has reached such critical heights since Mass Effect 3's 93 rating back in 2012.

Recent EA heavyweights like Battlefield (2016), It Takes Two (2021), and the Dead Space remake (2023) came close but couldn't crack the elusive 90+ threshold. Split Fiction now joins that exclusive club with its sterling 91 Metacritic rating, earning both "Universal Acclaim" and a "Must-Play" designation from 84 professional reviews. OpenCritic echoes this sentiment with a 90 score and "Mighty" rating.

At Game8, we awarded Split Fiction a well-deserved 90/100. The game dazzles with imaginative level design, a compelling narrative, and pure cooperative joy that makes every discovery feel special with friends. Want our full take? Check out our in-depth review below!
