    Does No Man’s Sky Have Split-Screen Co-op? (2025)

    Hello Games’ No Man’s Sky is probably one of the biggest space survival games in history. You travel in the vastness of space, build outposts and manage bases, and explore the universe at your own will. It’s one of those games that needs multiplayer, and fortunately, No Man’s Sky does support multiplayer — it even supports cross-play!

    If you’ve always wanted to play in the comfort of your couch, you might be wondering: does No Man’s Sky support split-screen, or does it have couch co-op feature? You’ve come to the right place as we’ll answer those questions!

    Can You Play No Man’s Sky Split Screen?

    No, No Man’s Sky does not have split-screen multiplayer as of 2025. Despite being a highly requested feature, Hello Games has not yet implemented local co-op play feature. This means you and a friend can’t explore the vast universe of No Man’s Sky together from the same console.

    Why is there no split-screen in No Man’s Sky?

    While Hello Games hasn’t officially stated the reasons behind the lack of split-screen support, several factors likely contribute:

    • Technical limitations: Rendering two instances of No Man’s Sky’s procedurally generated universe simultaneously could be very demanding, potentially leading to performance issues on consoles.
    • Focus on online multiplayer: The developers seem to prioritize online co-op and expanding the game’s online features.
    • Development priorities: With continuous updates adding new content and mechanics, split-screen might not be a high priority for the development team.

    Will No Man’s Sky Ever Get Split-screen?

    While there’s no official word, it’s not entirely out of the question. Hello Games has a history of listening to community feedback and adding features post-launch. Continued demand for split-screen could potentially sway them to consider it for a future update.

    No Man’s Sky is now available on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PS5, Nintendo Switch, and PC.
