DID YOU KNOW?

Did you know that before online gaming, players enjoyed multiplayer games using the split screen feature in video games? This innovation allows simultaneous gameplay for two or more players on one single television unit. The first examples of split-screen local multiplayer games are the 1997 game GoldenEye and the iconic Super Mario Bros. 3.

Since the launch of Xbox Live in 2002, video games have shifted in focus from local multiplayer games into online gaming. Couch co-op and split screen gaming have fallen into the sidelines, with fewer games being produced with split-screen options. But the genre is not entirely dead. There are gamers who want to stay offline and play split-screen local multiplayer games on their PlayStation 4 and Xbox One consoles. They still embrace the thrill of playing in the same room against friends or opponents. This is especially true about racing games like Gran Turismo Sport or two-man battle games like Gears of War 4. Bigger screens and better quality of consoles gave players the option to improve split-screen features. Players still prefer the ease of playing online and mobile gaming, but these changes set up old school co-op gaming for a timely resurgence.
