Split Fiction - Achievement Guide

A guide for getting all achievements in Split Fiction.

Introduction

Split Fiction is designed for split-screen cooperative multiplayer, so the achievements can only be obtained by playing with another player (Or if you are skilled enough, maybe you can do it by your own). Good news is in most cases, both players will earn achievements when one of them has fulfilled the requirements (must have bought the game).

There are 20 achievements in total. 1 story-related achievement, 2 collectible achievements, and 17 gameplay-related achievements.

Even though most of the achievements are missable, you can still earn them in chapter select at any time. You can also enable the accessibility setting to skip checkpoints, so that you can quickly skip to the checkpoint with the achievements.

It's highly recommended to do a blind run with your partner first before looking at any guide.

Story-related Achievements

Automatically earned when you finish the story, cannot be missed.
