You can play Outward with up to two players in the same world at the same time.
Outward is designed with co-operative play in mind, allowing players to explore its challenging world alongside a companion. This co-op functionality is available through two distinct methods, catering to different play preferences:
- Split-screen: For players sharing the same screen and physical space, the game supports local split-screen co-op.
- Online Multiplayer: Friends can also team up over the internet using the online multiplayer feature, joining each other's worlds.
Regardless of whether you choose to play locally via split-screen or online, the maximum number of players concurrently active in a single game world is limited to two.
