Yes — but with a caveat. Split Fiction is not available on the original Nintendo Switch models; Hazelight and EA released a dedicated port for Nintendo’s next system, the Nintendo Switch 2, which launched on June 5, 2025 and brings Friend’s Pass and crossplay to the platform. See the official announcement on EA’s site for the Switch 2 release details. (The game originally launched for PS5, Xbox Series X|S and PC on March 6, 2025.)
The Switch 2 edition was optimized for Nintendo’s newer hardware and includes GameShare/GameChat features, but reviewers noted technical compromises versus high-end consoles — lower resolution and a 30fps target in many modes compared with 4K/60fps on PS5/Xbox — so expect a trade-off between portability and visual fidelity. For practical details like price, Friend’s Pass usage, and crossplay setup, check EA’s release notes and platform storefronts, and read hands-on reviews for performance advice on handheld/tabletop play.
