Split Fiction players have stumbled upon a secret level that fans have dubbed Laser Hell, and its so difficult that Hazelight is rewarding the first pair who managed to beat it.Co-op fans found yet another reason to celebrate the studios latest cooperative story after content creators E1uM4y and Sharkov shared their successful run on Chinese social media platform Bilibili. Their three-minute video showcases not only what a successful run looks like but also the hellish tasks that await inside it. Split Ficitions Laser Hell level is a gauntlet of demanding platforming challenges that see players dodging up and around a series of laser rooms, but it is doable and theres a special video for those who see it through to the end.As demonstrated in E1uM4y and Sharkovs video, reaching the end of Split Fictions hardest level rewards Mio and Zoe with a clip recorded by Hazelights own Josef Fares. After opening the video with applause, he says hes super amazed by anyone who was able to beat the level while joking that his praise isnt for you guys who are looking (at) this on YouTube.Wow. Amazing. You have to understand, this challenge, there are barely people on our team that can make it, Fares says in the video. It took us a lot of time to finish it. Im telling you; this is a crazy, crazy achievement you have done.Its a feat worth celebrating indeed, but wait, theres more! Fares promises that the first pair of players who manage to beat Split Fictions Laser Hell level and confirm their success will be flown out to Hazelight in Sweden for an early look at the studios next game along with a few other surprises. Its a promise that the director personally followed up on and confirmed in a post on X/Twitter.If you and a friend (for some reason) feel like taking a shot at Laser Hell yourselves, YouTuber ItzBytez uploaded a solid look at the whole level from front to back, including the puzzle that needs to be solved to even access it. All you need to do is input a binary code listed under a Skotos label at the location shown, have your partner stand beside you, and youll be taken down to a room where youll surely spend countless attempts trying to see Fares video in person.As for what exactly Hazelight will be showing E1uM4y and Sharkov, those details remain a mystery. Fares recently shared that the studio has been working on its next project for around a month but declined to spill much in terms of its story, name, or release plans. We do know, at least, that the Hazelight team is very excited about it.PlaySplit Fiction launched earlier this month for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X and S and quickly became yet another co-op success for the studio. After securing 1 million sales in just 48 hours, Mio and Zoes story pulled a total of 2 million in just one week. Weve yet to hear any more information about sales stats, but it sounds like Hazelight is very happy with how Split Fiction has performed so far.Michael Cripe is a freelance contributor with IGN.
