Warzone is one of the most popular free-to-play titles, that’s best enjoyed as part of a team. Many will squad up with friends to try and be the last team standing, but can you play split-screen?

Here’s everything you need to know about split-screen availability in Warzone.

Does Warzone support split-screen on console or PC?

No, Warzone does not feature split-screen, meaning you can’t play the battle royale on either console (PlayStation and Xbox) or PC. The only way to play with others is individually through the online service.

This may surprise those who utilize MW3‘s split-screen feature for multiplayer, which allows two players to enjoy the game on one console and screen. However, the devs decided not to include this feature for the battle royale despite being on the same application.

They haven’t addressed why this is the case, but perhaps the massive scale and ensuring that matches are fair are two reasons. That’s not to say the feature is never coming to Warzone, as there’s always a chance that could happen somewhere down the line.

If any news regarding split-screen in Warzone is released, we’ll be sure to update this piece so stay tuned.

Also, the battle royale experience requires players to constantly be aware of their surroundings from an audio and visual point of view, which becomes tricky if two players share the same screen.
