    Split screen bo6 not working


    Hello,

    I am trying to play split screen zombies on BO6. I have an Xbox one series S, we both have Xbox live, and we both have an activision account. When I load into a zombies or multiplayer lobby and press (A) nothing happens. What am I doing wrong?

    :)

    Split Screen not working

    Hi there,

    the game itself will determine if splitscreen is available or not, most games don't have that option, but according to the website the game Beach Buggy Racing does and should even support 6 players.

    The one thing that might be required is that each player needs their own profile to be signed in, this would also allow each profile to save their own progress and achievements etc.

    You can also try to sign in a Guest account to see if that also works.

    See this link on how to add addtional profiles to the console, like child accounts etc:

    https://support.xbox.com/browse/my-account/manage-gamertag-and-profile


    Once they are set up, each person can sign in to their own profile and use that etc. If needed privacy and safety limitations for Child accounts can be set up too

    Minecraft issues?

    Are you trying to play split screen? And what kind of TV are you playing on when it doesn't work. Split screen will only work on HDTVs.

    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.
