    Overwatch - No Split-Screen Support


    I would like to request a refund for my purchase of Overwatch on Xbox One. I bought it for the sole purpose of playing with friends at home, and with no multiplayer split-screen support, it's a completely worthless purchase for me.

    I realize the possibility of getting a refund is low, but I'd like to stress 2 feedback points:


    1) Until I bought this game, I had no idea the systemic problem of game companies moving away from split-screen games. Back when I played Xbox 360 years ago, all the multiplayer games had split-screen support, so I just assumed that was the
    industry standard. I am very surprised to find out that companies are moving away from it, and I don't think it's a good idea in general.


    2) I already have Overwatch on the PC, and that's what I use to play online with remote players... so having a console version is worthless to me as I only bought it for the purpose of multiplayer home games. Now I feel cheated.

    :)

    Next Gen Consoles/Games But No Splitscreen?

    Same here however I think Destiny may be split screen knowing Bungie as they made previous Halo games with split screen. Moving on to 343i I think upcoming Halo should support split screen.

    I agree the next gen consoles are powerful enough to support split screen.

  4. Overwatch - No Split-Screen Support

    Hi there,

    Only phone support is able to issue refunds so you would have to see if there is anything they can do. Keep in mind for digital purchases, it's a no refunds after purchase policy.

    You can go to support.xbox.com/contact-us to request a call back from support in your region. If you're in the US you can call 1-800-469-9269.

    Minecraft multiplayer?????

    Some TV doesn't support split screen, you need a HDTV with a Component or HDMI cable required for Split-Screen play. Split-screen functionality works with a VGA connection to a PC monitor as well as HDMI-to-DVI cables to a PC monitor. Up to 4 players can
    play in split screen

    playing co-op (split screen) with son on second controller on Xbox series x

    support for split screen is not universal with games however dual controllers will enable the mode in supported games

    having said that in the old days when consoles were not as available I recall playing quake II in a quad split screen with an ancient PS2

    even games on the PC occasionally feature split screen

    Adding a player

    You need to find games that include support for split screen games or allow you to take turns (eg Pinball FX3). Google "xbox one split screen games" for URL's that can help you find split screen games.

    Good luck!
