Before virtually every game on the planet included some form of online multiplayer, the only way to either team up with your friends or fight them to the death was by physically meeting up and playing a game on the same television. Sadly, fewer and fewer games include split screen functionality anymore, but on Thursday, the latest Fortnite update brought Split Screen multiplayer to both PS4 and Xbox One players.
As the patch notes for Fortnite Battle Royale v11.30 explain, you can now play Duos and Squads with a friend on the same PS4 or Xbox One console. In other words, you’ll each get half of the screen, but you can sit right next to your friend or your roommate and play as many matches as you like together.
