This article answers the question: where are all the bench locations in Split Fiction, and how do you unlock the “Sisters� and “Besties� trophies? The “Sisters� trophy requires finding all 10 benches in the game, while the “Besties� trophy is earned by sitting on a bench with your co-op partner. Below is a complete guide to every bench location, with tips for finding them solo or with a friend.
Formula
The calculator above estimates your bench-collection progress. The formula is:
Completion % = (benches found / 10) × 100
Variables: b = number of benches you have found (0–10), t = time played in minutes (optional, for context). The result shows what percentage of the 10 benches you have located.
Worked Example
If you have found 6 benches, the calculation is:
Completion % = (6 / 10) × 100 = 60%
So you have 60% of the benches, with 4 remaining. The calculator uses the same logic with your inputs.
What Are the Benches in Split Fiction?
Split Fiction is a co-op action-adventure game by Hazelight Studios, released in 2025. The game follows two protagonists, Mio and Zoe, as they traverse a series of sci-fi and fantasy worlds. Scattered across these levels are 10 hidden benches where the characters can sit and chat. Finding all of them unlocks the “Sisters� trophy/achievement, while sitting on any bench with your partner unlocks “Besties.�
All 10 Bench Locations (Sisters Trophy)
Here is the complete list of bench locations, organized by chapter. Note that benches are only available during specific chapters; you cannot return to earlier levels after progressing.
- Chapter 1: The Hoverboard Chase – After the hoverboard section, before the first laser puzzle, look to the left on a small platform. The bench is tucked behind a crate.
- Chapter 2: The Dragon Valley – In the area with the giant dragon skeleton, after the swinging ropes, the bench is on a hill to the right, near a broken pillar.
- Chapter 3: The Cyber Heist – During the stealth section, after you disable the first security camera, the bench is in a small alcove on the left, behind a stack of boxes.
- Chapter 4: The Underwater City – In the bubble-riding sequence, after the first bubble pops, swim to the right and you’ll see a bench on a coral ledge.
- Chapter 5: The Forest of Echoes – After the puzzle with the singing flowers, the bench is near a giant tree root on the right side of the path.
- Chapter 6: The Space Station – In the zero-gravity section, after the first airlock, look for a bench floating near a broken window. Use the gravity boots to land on it.
- Chapter 7: The Ancient Temple – After the wall-climbing section, the bench is in a small room to the left, guarded by a pressure plate puzzle.
- Chapter 8: The Carnival of Chaos – In the funhouse mirror maze, the bench is behind a false mirror. Shoot the mirror to reveal it.
- Chapter 9: The Ice Cavern – After the ice slide, the bench is on a frozen lake, but you must melt the ice with a fire orb first.
- Chapter 10: The Final Tower – In the last level, before the final boss fight, the bench is on a balcony to the left of the main path. It’s easy to miss because it’s dark.
How to Get the “Besties� Trophy
The “Besties� trophy is simpler: you just need to sit on any bench with your co-op partner. Once you find any bench, approach it and press the interact button (default: E on PC, X on PlayStation, A on Xbox). Your character will sit down. Your partner must do the same on the same bench. The trophy pops immediately. If you are playing solo with an AI partner, you can still get this by switching control to the AI character and sitting down – the AI will follow.
Common Problems and Solutions
- Missing a bench because you progressed too far: Benches are missable. If you skip a level, you cannot go back. Use chapter select (available after finishing the game) to replay chapters and find the missing bench.
- Bench not appearing: Some benches only appear after certain puzzles are solved. For example, the Ice Cavern bench requires you to melt the ice. Make sure you have completed all required objectives in that area.
- “Besties� not unlocking: Ensure both players are actually sitting on the bench, not just standing next to it. Also, check that you are not in a cutscene or a scripted event.
- Playing solo: You can still get both trophies in solo mode. Use the character switch (default: Tab on PC) to control the other character and sit on the bench.
How to Use Chapter Select for Missed Benches
After completing the story, you can replay any chapter from the main menu. To find a missing bench:
- From the main menu, select “Chapter Select.�
- Choose the chapter where the bench is located.
- Play through the chapter until you reach the bench location.
- Sit on the bench (or have your partner sit) to register it.
- Exit the chapter – the game saves your progress automatically.
Note that chapter select resets your inventory and upgrades for that chapter, but it does not affect your trophy progress.
Costs and Requirements
There are no in-game costs to find benches. However, to play Split Fiction, you need a copy of the game and either a local co-op partner or an online friend. The game supports cross-play between PC and consoles, but both players need their own copy (or use the Friend’s Pass). The “Sisters� trophy does not require a second player – you can find all benches solo. The “Besties� trophy does require both characters to sit, but you can do that in solo mode by switching characters.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I get the Sisters trophy in solo mode?
Yes, the Sisters trophy (finding all 10 benches) can be earned in solo mode. You just need to find and sit on each bench. The game tracks your progress automatically.
Do I need to sit on the bench to count it?
Yes, you must sit on the bench (press the interact button) for it to count toward the trophy. Simply seeing it or walking past it does not register.
Is the Besties trophy missable?
No, the Besties trophy is not missable because you can always replay any chapter and sit on any bench. Even if you finish the game, you can go back and get it.
How many benches are there in total?
There are 10 benches in total, one per chapter. Each bench is in a specific location, and none are in optional side areas – they are all on the main path, but hidden.
Does the Friend’s Pass affect trophy progress?
No, the Friend’s Pass allows a friend to play with you for free, but trophy progress is tied to the host’s save file. If you are the guest, you will not earn trophies on your account.
What happens if I miss a bench and finish the game?
You can use Chapter Select to replay any chapter and find the missed bench. The game saves your progress immediately when you sit on it, so you can exit the chapter right after.
