Playing Overwatch in the split screen - is that possible?

Even large titles increasingly do without split-screen mode. In this article, we reveal whether this is also the case with Overwatch and how you can play the shooter for two.

Overwatch: is there a split-screen mode?

• As announced before the release, there is no split-screen mode in Overwatch. You cannot play together on one device, neither on the PC nor on the console.
• This is mainly because Overwatch was developed as an online game only. Playing two players on one console in parallel across two accounts would affect the performance and quality of the game.
• Nevertheless, you can play with your friends in online mode. However, please note that only console players compete against console players and PC players against PC players.
