Exciting news for fans of Split Fiction—a film adaptation is in the works! According to Variety, the game's movie rights have attracted offers from multiple top Hollywood studios, prompting a swift response. Story Kitchen, a media company renowned for its expertise in transforming games and other non-traditional properties into film and TV projects, is currently assembling a package deal for the film. This includes securing writers, a director, and cast. Notably, the same team successfully handled the upcoming film adaptation of Hazelight Studios' previous game, It Takes Two. Story Kitchen, formerly known as dj2 Entertainment, has a track record with high-profile projects like the Sonic the Hedgehog films and Netflix's Tomb Raider: The Legend of Lara Croft. While further details remain under wraps, the anticipation is palpable.
Adding to the buzz, Split Fiction recently celebrated a major milestone, having sold over two million copies within its first week on sale. IGN's review hailed it as an unmissable co-op adventure, commending its ability to remain fabulously fresh throughout its full, 14-hour duration. Moreover, earlier this week, Hazelight director Josef Fares announced that the studio is already hard at work on their next game, keeping the excitement alive among fans.
