343 industries confirmed an update to enhance halo 5 for the upcoming for the Xbox One X. There wasn’t split screen in halo 5 because the studio preferred to push the game to its full potential on the Xbox One.
Could the power of the Xbox One X handle split screen co-op?
Halo 5 never had plans for split-screen during its development. An update - no matter how big it may be - is simply not viable anymore, even with the X’s impressive specs. Best leave your hopes for Halo 6 as it’s essentially confirmed from that point onwards.
Yeah I can see that. It’d be more important to invest time into future projects or even current.
Edit:
It would be nice to see it for at least campaign. I’ve always played halo campaign in splitscreen with family and friends. To not see it in there is a bummer to me, it’s a great story to experience with others.
Feel free to use the split screen thread for this discussion.
