Split Fiction is the highest rated game of 2025 so far
Split Fiction is the next big game from Josef Fares and Hazelight Studios. Known for their work on co-op focused titles such as A Way Out and It Takes Two, the upcoming Split Fiction appears to be an early game of the year contender if critics are anything to go by – receiving universal acclaim and becoming the highest rated game of 2025 so far.
With a Metacritic score of 91 and an Opencritic rating of 90, Split Fiction is officially the highest rated game of the year so far – just beating out Monster Hunter Wilds and Kingdom Come Deliverance II for the top spot.
Once again, it seems that Hazelight have managed to elevate the co-op space, quickly becoming one of the premiere studios for inventive and new cooperative experiences.
Given its success, it will be interesting to see whether Split Fiction winds up on any Game of the Years lists later on in 2025. While the team’s last title It Takes Two managed to snag the GOTY back in 2021, 2025 could be a much more competitive year, with GTA VI still expected to launch sometime this calendar period.
Regardless, it is exciting and encouraging to see Hazelight continue to succeed in what has become a relatively niche space within the games industry. Hopefully they continue to thrive for years to come.
