Split Fiction has emerged as a landmark title for Electronic Arts (EA), achieving a remarkable 91 on Metacritic, marking the publisher's first 90+ score in over a decade. This high praise from various review outlets underscores the game's universal acclaim among both critics and players.

Developed by Hazelight Studios, Split Fiction has not only captivated audiences but also set a new benchmark for EA. The last EA title to reach such heights was Mass Effect 3 back in 2012, which scored a 93 on Metacritic. Since then, other notable EA releases like Battlefield in 2016, It Takes Two in 2021, and Dead Space in 2023 have garnered high scores but none managed to break the 90+ barrier until now.

With a 91 score on Metacritic, Split Fiction has earned the coveted "Metacritic Must-Play" tag, reflecting its excellence based on 84 critic reviews. Similarly, on Open Critic, the game boasts a score of 90 and a "Mighty" rating, further solidifying its status as a top-tier game.
