Split Fiction has etched its name in the annals of gaming history by setting a new record for Electronic Arts (EA) on Steam among paid games. The developers behind this innovative title have successfully captivated the gaming community with a launch that not only met but surpassed all expectations.
Since its recent release on PC via Steam, Split Fiction has soared to unprecedented heights, outshining other EA titles. According to data sourced from SteamDB, the game achieved a staggering peak player count of over 197,000 users.

Beyond its commercial triumph, Split Fiction has also received widespread acclaim from the gaming community. Reviews on Steam consistently label the game as "overwhelmingly positive," with an astounding approval rating of 98%. This high level of praise not only underscores the game’s commercial success but also highlights its broad appeal and resonance with gamers around the globe.
