Re: Cannot Launch Split Screen

@iluminatethesky No game sharing going on here. I've been looking all over for the solution to this and I can't find anything. It's MADDENING since my son asked for this game for Christmas because he wanted to play split screen with me and now we can't get it to work. It was a few easy button pushes in GW2 to get it to work - not sure why things have changed on this game.

    Definitely understandable, I apologize.

    I've raised this issue for you, to see if I can get more information about what's going on. Hopefully we can find a quick solution for you.

    Hi there @Chakan0107,

    When you access the world map, you can select 3 game types (Online Cooperation/ Offline without AI and Offline with AI). If you want to play with a friend, son, etc, locally, and with only one PS plus or Xbox Live account, you need to select one of the offline options, your son will need to sign in with a PSN or Xbox Live for players on Xbox platform  - this will not allow you to play online multiplayer.

    NOTE: If you and a friend / family member want the split-screen online multiplayer, both will need an active PS Plus or Xbox Live Gold subscription. 

    Hope it helps. Happy holidays!

    How was this resolved. I have had the same issue. I did change the mode on the globe icon which seems to work, however how do you then play stuff like team vanquish? Alls the split screen seems to do is allow to walk around without choosing any modes

  • How do you enter the offline mode, I do not get the option of selecting offline, I have play, and then news, updates and future plans
