Hollywood Eyes Split Fiction for Movie Adaptation

Exciting news for fans of the acclaimed co-op action adventure, Split Fiction! According to Variety, the game is set to be adapted into a film. The report indicates that multiple top Hollywood studios have been vying for the movie rights, leading to a package being assembled by Story Kitchen, a media company known for its expertise in adapting games and other non-traditional properties into film and television projects. This same team previously worked on the upcoming film adaptation of Hazelight Studios' game, It Takes Two. Story Kitchen, formerly known as dj2 Entertainment, has also been involved in high-profile projects such as the Sonic the Hedgehog films and Netflix's Tomb Raider: The Legend of Lara Croft. Currently, no further details about the Split Fiction film adaptation are available.

The buzz around Split Fiction continues to grow, especially after it was confirmed earlier this month that the game sold over two million copies within its first week of release. This stellar sales performance underscores the game's popularity and the high demand for its unique co-op experience. IGN's review praised Split Fiction as an unmissable co-op adventure that remains fabulously fresh throughout its full 14-hour duration, further cementing its status as a must-play title.

Adding to the excitement, Hazelight director Josef Fares recently announced that the studio is already hard at work on its next game, promising more innovative and engaging content for fans to look forward to.
