"Split Fiction Scores 91 on Metacritic, EA's Highest in Over a Decade"

By BlakeMay 16,2025

Split Fiction has emerged as a groundbreaking success for EA, achieving a remarkable 91 aggregate score on Metacritic, marking it as EA's first game to hit the 90+ mark in over a decade. This impressive feat underscores the universal acclaim that Hazelight Studios' latest title has garnered from both critics and players alike.

The last time EA saw a game reach such heights was with Mass Effect 3 back in 2012, which boasted a 93 on Metacritic. Since then, other notable EA titles like Battlefield in 2016, It Takes Two in 2021, and Dead Space in 2023 have come close, but none managed to break the coveted 90+ barrier until now.

Split Fiction's success is further evidenced by its scores on other platforms. It holds a 90 on Open Critic, where it also earns a "Mighty" rating. Here at Game8, we awarded Split Fiction an outstanding 90 out of 100, praising its exceptional levels, engaging storyline, and the sheer joy of exploring its world with friends.
