According to Variety, the acclaimed co-op action adventure game, Split Fiction, is set to be adapted into a film. The news comes as multiple top Hollywood studios have been vying for the movie rights, prompting a package deal to be assembled by Story Kitchen, a media company renowned for its work on film and TV adaptations of games and other non-traditional properties. This same team successfully handled the upcoming film adaptation of Hazelight Studios' previous game, It Takes Two, and has been involved in other notable projects such as the Sonic the Hedgehog films and Netflix's Tomb Raider: The Legend of Lara Croft.
At this point, further details about the Split Fiction film adaptation remain undisclosed.
The excitement around *Split Fiction* continues to grow, especially after it was confirmed earlier this month that the game had sold over two million copies in its first week on sale. IGN's review praised *Split Fiction* as an unmissable co-op adventure that remains fabulously fresh for its full, 14-hour duration. Adding to the buzz, Hazelight director Josef Fares recently announced that the studio is already working on its next game.
