PS4 pvz battle for neighborville - not able to split screen or coop with my bro

Hi

We have PS4, I and my brother play coop for Fortnite.

Similarly I want to play coop in 'battle for neighborville' game. 

After I login to game, when my brother presses square button on controller, it says "unavailable".

Could you please assist in solving this problem, thanks.

    @LalitVed,

    If you are planning to play Online, then yes, both Accounts would need PS Plus.

    You shouldn't need PS Plus to access the Split Screen feature itself.

    You can also try restoring the game licenses in your PS4 Settings, and doing a hard reset on your Console:

    Select Settings > Account Management > Restore Licenses, then fully turn off your Console for 30 seconds or so, and turn it back on.

    Try launching the game again, and enabling Split Screen.

    Thanks 🙂

    Can you please detail about "somewhere".

    We didn't change any options.

    Please let me know what options to choose for split screen? Where is the location. Thanks.

    Thanks, both accounts are created on ea.com.

    Still we get "unavailable" when square button pressed on PS4 controller.

    Do we need ps plus to get split screen?

    @iluminatetheskyHi there I have PSP (PS Plus) on one account and I have another account which doesn't have PSP and I can play on that account alone. So I don't know if your wrong or I have a bug.

    I have similar issue. I own EA games subscribtion on PS5, but i dont own any PS Plus. When i am trying to activate co-op/splitscreen, it prompts my second profile to login into EA games… the subscribtion is linked to the first profile, so i have no idea what should i input there to activate coop?
