"Discover All Side Story Locations in Split Fiction"

While *Split Fiction* follows a mostly linear co-op adventure, the game is enriched with optional Side Stories that offer some of its most memorable moments. These diversions, though not essential to the main storyline, are highly recommended for players looking to fully immerse themselves in the game’s unique experiences, such as turning into pigs or competing in a deadly game show. Completing all these Side Stories also unlocks a special achievement, making the effort well worth it. Here's a comprehensive guide to discovering all 12 Side Stories spread across Chapters 2 through 5.

How To Find All Side Stories in Split Fiction

In Chapters 2 through 5, you'll encounter 12 Side Stories, with three in each chapter. Not only are these stories entertaining, but they also contribute to unlocking the "Bookworms" achievement. Here’s how to locate each one:

  • Legend of the Sandfish – In Chapter 2, you'll naturally come across this Side Story after completing the Rush Hour section. It's unmissable.
  • Farmlife – Also in Chapter 2, within the Streets of Neon section, find this Side Story after hopping over a small barrier but before using the elevators on the left.
  • Mountain Hike – The final Side Story in Chapter 2 is in the Big City Life section. At the Port-A-Pottys, have Mio enter one, then use Zoe to throw her to a ledge opposite them where there's a small ladder. Mio should drop the ladder for access.
  • Train Heist – In Chapter 3's Lord Evergreen section, while navigating water with a plank of wood, look for this Side Story on a ledge that requires a wall run by Mio and Zoe to reach.
  • Gameshow – In the Walking Sticks of Doom section of Chapter 3, locate this Side Story on a platform after the side-scrolling section, which involves minor platforming.
  • Collapsing Star – The last Side Story in Chapter 3 is in the Halls of Ice section, positioned directly on the main path, making it impossible to miss.
  • Kites – In Chapter 4, within the Toxic Tumblers section, you'll find this Side Story at the end of a long tube.
  • Moon Market – In the Test Chamber section of Chapter 4, after opening the door following the crane sequence, spot this Side Story on a ledge to the left that requires some platforming to reach.
  • Notebook – The last Side Story in Chapter 4 is in the Soaring Desperados section. After acquiring the jetpack, hover over to the left side of the room, avoiding the giant wheel.
  • Slopes of War – The first Side Story in Chapter 5 is in the Water Temple section. After hatching your dragons, solve the lever puzzle on the left to unlock it.
  • Space Escape – In the Craft Temple section of Chapter 5, after defeating the dragon, launch Mio to a ledge using her glide and Zoe’s roll, then have Mio drop a column for Zoe to climb.
  • Birthday Cake – The final Side Story of *Split Fiction* is found in Chapter 5's Treasure Temple section. Complete the soul puzzle, and it will appear on your left.

Once you've completed all 12 Side Stories, the "Bookworms" achievement will unlock automatically, rewarding your thorough exploration of *Split Fiction*.

*Split Fiction* is now available on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC, offering players a chance to delve into these engaging Side Stories across various platforms.
