PS5
Split Fiction requires a partner, but its platinum mainly rewards noticing optional activities together. Before starting, establish which accounts need trophies and which version each player is using. During the campaign, pause for side stories and unusual interactions; after the ending, chapter cleanup avoids a complete replay. Gameshow requires particular discipline because choosing the right restart matters as much as passing the bomb.
PS5 roadmap for local or online co-op. Friend’s Pass access and trophy eligibility for the full game follow different rules.
- Required difficulty: No hard mode is required; coordination and individual challenges determine the difficulty.
- Missable trophies: Skipped actions can be recovered through chapters; some challenges require restarting their entire activity.
- Online: Local co-op is supported. For remote play, check EA accounts, invitations and platform requirements.
Set up partners and accounts before the story
Friend’s Pass lets a guest join the owner’s campaign, but participation does not automatically grant trophy eligibility. EA’s FAQ reserves unlocks for players who own the full game. Locally, select the intended profiles before starting; online, also check the EA link needed for invitations and cross-play. Resolve that distinction before playing rather than after reaching the ending.
- Confirm which profiles are eligible to unlock trophies.
Enter side stories and sit down together
Side stories form a collection of routes to finish, while the six benches require their own interactions. Keep two lists because completing a detour does not automatically cover a bench in another chapter. When either player notices an optional entrance, wait for each other before advancing the scene. Recording the subchapter is more useful than remembering only whether the setting was fantasy or science fiction.
- Track completed side stories separately from used benches.
Use the Moon Market visit for two objectives
In the market, look for the wand and the recipe stand. Transforming your partner into a chair and sitting on them checks one objective, while brewing and drinking the potions addresses another. Switch roles calmly and compare the recipe list instead of mixing ingredients randomly. These are side-story interactions, not rewards substituted by completing only the main route.
- Check the chair interaction and recipes as separate objectives.
Restart the challenge after a Cold Potato failure
In Gameshow, agree on a simple throw-and-catch call. Do not hold the bomb while discussing the next jump; decide the direction before starting the sequence. If it explodes, reloading a checkpoint alone does not reset the requirement, so restart the side story. This prevents finishing an excellent second half after the run has already become invalid for Cold Potato.
- After an explosion, restart the entire Gameshow side story.
Replay the subchapter and confirm the trophy
After the story, use chapter selection for missing interactions. The phone minigame for You Are Not a Robot has a limited window: if a checkpoint leaves too little time, restart the Gravity Bike subchapter. Accessibility options can speed up travel through previously played sections. Afterwards check both eligible profiles instead of assuming one player’s unlock proves the other player received it.
- Confirm the individual unlock after each targeted cleanup.
