The explosive gunplay of Halo 5: Guardians, particularly its new Warzone online mode, made a nice showing at this month's Electronic Entertainment Expo, but the game's developers at 343 also disappointed fans with a June backtrack on a prior promise. The game's campaign mode will revolve around four-player co-op play, but players who want to team up with friends in that campaign will need to hop online—meaning, no split-screen campaign options for friends on the same couch.
On Sunday afternoon, the backtracking continued for Halo fans who like to play split-screen versus modes on the same screen. A Halo fan on Twitter, named Ben Van Riper, took a screencap of Halo 5's Xbox One pre-order listing, which currently lists a oneplayer limit on a single console, along with a "2-24 player" count for online multiplayer.
@JoshingtonState @Franklez @PlutonForever @Brav Does this mean that #halo5splitscreen has been removed entirely? http://pic.twitter.com/jnDQkoq9z1
