The game is regularly updated by Epic to ensure players always have something new to work toward – and you'd be hard-pressed to find a game with as many high-profile collaborations as Fortnite.

It follows the same steps on both consoles and allows for gaming up to 60 frames per second on a single screen. Before you start, however, make sure you have a second account and controller available for your buddy to use. Then, follow these easy steps to get split-screen mode running:

Step 1: Navigate to the Main Menu.

Step 2: Make sure the second controller is connected to your console and is turned on.
