Unfortunately for PC owners, Star Wars Battlefront 2's split-screen co-op functionality will be exclusive to the console versions of the game, meaning only PS4 and Xbox One owners can enjoy its benefits.
While we wait for more information on how Star Wars Battlefront 2 will handle co-op and how it will fit in the game's story, there's a couple of other details we've been given about the feature so far. It's unclear how the co-op mode will tie into Versio's story, if it does at all, but more details should come at EA's E3 2017 press conference in June. Versio then goes on a quest for revenge, which will lead into the events of the ongoing sequel trilogy. Star Wars Battlefront 2's story follows Imperial soldier Iden Versio, who witnesses the destruction of the second Death Star at the end of Return of the Jedi.
Not much is known about Star Wars Battlefront 2's split-screen co-op at this time, but it's likely that it will have some story implications. Star Wars Battlefront 2 sounds like a step up from 2015's entry in every single way, adding many fan-requested features, including split-screen co-op, which will be available at launch this time around. Not only did this year's Star Wars Celebration give fans their first look at Star Wars: The Last Jedi, but it also revealed details on the upcoming Star Wars Battlefront 2.
