Three split-screen adventures for two players, on the couch or online. Choose puzzles, changing worlds or a focused story.
Start with It Takes Two for changing tools and puzzles, Split Fiction for fast-changing fantasy and science-fiction challenges, or A Way Out for a more directed dramatic story.
Each selection supports two-player local split-screen and online co-op. For couch play, bring two controllers; for online play, check the game edition, account and subscription requirements. These campaigns require a partner.
A compact selection of two-player campaigns playable on PS5. A Way Out uses the PS4 version through backward compatibility. Player counts do not imply cross-platform play.

A campaign built around two different roles
Cody and May receive tools that must work together. Changing mechanics keep the partnership active across platforming, puzzles and action, making this a clear starting point for a pair seeking variety.
Consider first: It requires two players. Both need to take part in action and platforming rather than having one player simply assist.
Find games like It Takes Two →A two-player adventure that keeps changing worlds
Science-fiction and fantasy settings frame a cooperative journey with changing challenges. Try it when both players want an active role and enjoy learning a new interaction together.
Consider first: It is designed for a pair, not a large group. Expect action and platforming as well as moments of coordination.
Find games like Split Fiction →A shared story with two perspectives
The two protagonists take part in the same escape-driven adventure, sometimes doing different things at once. Choose it when following a dramatic campaign together matters more than building a lasting collection.
Consider first: Two players are required. This is a directed narrative experience rather than an open-ended cooperative world.
