Thanks to its innovative gameplay and voice acting, Split Fiction by Hazelight Studios has instantly gained the attention of fans worldwide. So much so that it has already surpassed the peak player counts for the developers’ previous co-op titles, A Way Out and It Takes Two.
Split Fiction doesn’t tell you how much progress you’ve made, and judging where you sit in the large scheme of things can be complex. So, we’ve compiled this list of all the chapters and side stories in the game, which should also reveal how long it would take you to beat the entire thing.
How long to beat Split Fiction

Time and again, you’ll stumble upon portals in Split Fiction that take you to a random goofy world, and these act as side stories in the title. They aren’t related to the main story but help you strengthen your understanding with your teammate and explore a bunch of new mechanics.
If you decide to finish every side story in Split Fiction, it should take you around 15-20 hours to complete the full game. Ignoring them and focusing solely on the main story would cut the time to 10-12 hours.
