While Split Fiction is a fairly straightforward and linear co-op adventure, there are plenty of opportunities to go off the beaten path and engage in what the game calls Side Stories. While these are often inessential, they contain some of the game’s best moments, so here’s how to find them.
Within Chapters 2 through 5, you’ll find a total of 12 different Side Stories. There are three located in each chapter, and while they’re technically optional, they contain some of the game’s best moments, like a sequence where you and your partner become pigs or where you both compete in a deadly game show. There is an achievement tied to finding and completing all 12 of these Side Stories, so if you want to experience everything the game has to offer, here’s how to find every last one.
