Bo6 updated and now I can’t play split screen

Hi Bo,

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Xbox Community. I'm sorry to hear that you're having issues playing split-screen multiplayer. I understand that it was working prior the patch. There are four requirements to play split-screen in Black Ops 6:

Both players need Activision accounts

Playing Black Ops 6 on PS5 or Xbox One Series X / S (current gen consoles)

You need a second input method, such as an additional controller or mouse and keyboard

Have an active internet connection (with online service subscription)

There are a few restrictions in Black Ops 6’s split-screen mode:

Only available in multiplayer and zombies — you cannot play the campaign in split screen

Multiplayer is limited to matchmaking versus bots

Before you try to play split-screen, make sure you meet all of the aforementioned requirements above.

From there, here’s how to play split-screen in Black Ops 6:

Enter either “Multiplayer” or “Zombies”.

Connect a second controller (or mouse and keyboard) and press “A” in your Xbox controller respectively when the prompt appears in the upper right.

Sign into your Activision account for the second player.

Start your multiplayer or zombies game.

If any of the above is not working, as mentioned, the feature is currently prone to various issues, so attempt restarting your game to see if that helps, or try again following a future patch.

Is it still freezing? We still can’t play split screen it’s so annoying.

Hi. My name is Brilliant, an independent advisor, happy to assist you today.

Please note that split-screen mode is only available for Duos and Squads modes, and has some limitations and restrictions. Players can’t share inventory using split-screen mode, and both players must have the same language settings to play on split-screen. If split-screen mode isn’t working as expected, check your internet connection. Split-screen mode will only work if your connection is stable.

I hope this helps.

I have the same issue, the split-screen option doesn’t work and can’t find a way to make it work…

I play 2 player split screen now
