Ever wondered how to play Fortnite with a friend on the same PlayStation 5? Well, you’re in luck because we’re diving into the world of split screen in Fortnite on PS5!
So, let’s get right into it – how can you and a buddy share a screen while battling it out in Fortnite on your PS5?
Split Screen in PS5 Fortnite: Here’s How!
First things first, you’ll need two controllers. Yes, both players must have their own controller to navigate through the game. Once you have that sorted out, fire up your PS5 and launch Fortnite.
Here’s the fun part: once you’re in the main menu, have the second player press and hold the X button on their controller until they join the game. Boom! You’re now set to play Fortnite in split screen mode. But remember, this only works in Duos and Squads, not in Solo mode.
