Can You Play The Forest in Split Screen?

Not officially. In fact, because the game supports online multiplayer with up to eight others, split screen would make the screen look … not great, if we’re being honest. But, if you’re truly insistent on giving it a try, there are ways to make The Forest split screen on PC. Because these methods are untested, we won’t vouch or endorse them, we’re just letting you know they exist.

It’d seem that The Forest’s primary gameplay loop involves defense and crafting mechanics. According to the game’s official website, players can “explore and build during the day.
