Just like It Takes Two and A Way Out, Split Fiction is a co-op game where you have no choice but to play with a partner. This time around, though, the game is fully cross-platform so you can go through this adventure with a friend no matter where they are playing. As if that wasn't good enough, it also brings back the Friend's Pass that lets two players go through the game on their own systems with only one of them having to purchase the game. If you want to take advantage of this great deal, here's how the Friend's pass works.

How to use the Friend's Pass

Considering the fact that Split Fiction cannot be played without a partner, allowing two people to play with one copy despite not being on the same system makes a lot of sense. But that is a bit more complicated than starting up a split-screen game. Here's how to use the Friend's Pass.

Split Fiction | How to Invite a Friend for Free with the Friend's Pass

Step 1: One player must purchase a copy of Split Fiction on any platform.

Step 2: The player who did not purchase the game needs to download the Friend's Pass on their platform by going to the game's store page.

Step 3: Once installed, both players need to launch the game.

Step 4: The player who owns Split Fiction can send an invite to the friend with the Friend's Pass and the two will be able to play the entire game together.

Keep in mind that the player who is only using the Friend's Pass will not be able to play Split Fiction without another friend who owns the game inviting them to a game. There is a free trial for the game, but this only includes the first stages.

How to capture monsters in Monster Hunter Wilds

The goal of Monster Hunter Wilds is, as expected, to hunt monsters using a host of powerful weapons. For the first dozen or so hours of the game, you will be killing all your targets with Power Clashes, Offset Attacks, mounting them, and any other tips and tricks you've picked up along the way. However, you will eventually reach a point where you need to take a monster down without killing it. Like everything else in Monster Hunter Wilds, the game just sort of expects you to either already know how to do this or be able to figure out its mysterious systems on your own. This is a complex mechanic so we will break down all the steps to capture a monster in Monster Hunter Wilds.

Starting in mission 4-1, capturing monsters will start to become a requirement for progressing through the story. The tutorial itself gives you a basic idea of what to do, but it is far from sufficient for new hunters.

There are a lot of unintuitive systems in Monster Hunter Wilds that you need to read a ton of tips and tricks to understand. For example, changing your character's appearance, changing your armor appearance, and editing your character are all different systems. The latter is especially odd since they require a consumable item called Character Edit Vouchers to access. To help you understand what the difference between these are and how you can get these special vouchers, here's a full breakdown of how you can edit your character in Monster Hunter Wilds.

Before we get to the bad news regarding Character Edit Vouchers, let's first go over the situations in which you would even need one. You can change a ton about your character by just changing their appearance at your Base Camp, but not everything. The only options that are locked behind the use of a voucher are:

Those coming into Monster Hunter Wilds after playing one or more earlier games in the series might think there aren't any tips and tricks left to learn. However, this entry changes up a lot of things, like how you play with friends and the new wishlist feature. When it comes to your weapon, you might have a favorite in mind going in, but even those have changed. Offeset attacks are a new mechanic that add a new layer to combat, but it isn't properly communicated and only applies to a few of the game's weapons. This new move can be one of the strongest in the game if you master it, so let's break down how offset attacks work.
