Multiplayer & Split Screen in Deathground
- Split screen is unavailable: Deathground focuses solely on online co-op multiplayer via Steam. Players cannot share a screen locally.
- Solo or online teamwork: Play alone or collaborate with up to three others in intense missions requiring strategic communication.
Why Local Co-op Isn’t an Option
- The game’s atmosphere relies on tension, limited visibility, and sound awareness—split screen would diminish immersion.
- Reactive AI and dark environments demand steady performance, which split screen could compromise.
- Developers are prioritizing core gameplay improvements in early access, with no current plans for local multiplayer.
Online Multiplayer Features
- Steam integration: Team up through invites or matchmaking for 1-4 player sessions.
- Voice chat is essential: Noise attracts prehistoric predators, requiring coordinated stealth and planning.
FAQs
