The world of Sanctuary can be a lonely place, unless you count the myriad eldritch horrors and demonic monstrosities as pals. So, it stands to reason that you may want to rope in a buddy to help get your grind on. This throws up an important question: Is Diablo 4 couch co op? Well, for those seeking an answer to that query, you’ve come to the right place. Here’s everything you need to know.
Is There Couch Co-Op in Diablo 4?
Much like its predecessors, yes, there is local couch co-op in Diablo 4. However, there is one caveat: On PC, there is no couch co-op available.
In other words, if you’re playing on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, or Xbox Series X|S, rest assured that you’ll be able to play couch co-op with your friends. For those on PC, however, the feature is not supported.
To be honest, this shouldn’t come as too much of a surprise to fans of the series, as PC platforms very rarely support the feature largely due to the smaller real-estate of PC displays.
How to Play Couch Co-Op With a Friend in Diablo 4
Fortunately, playing couch co-op is pretty straightforward on consoles. For those who’re unsure, simply follow these steps:
- Launch Diablo 4 on your console with Player 1’s save profile.
- At the game’s menu screen, turn on a second controller.
- Then, load into Player 1’s save.
- A prompt will appear in the bottom right-hand corner of the screen asking you to press the ‘Menu’ button on the second controller to connect.
- Next, Player 2 will have to log into a PlayStation/ Xbox account that’s linked to Blizzard battle.net
- Lastly, Player 2 will be given the option to select a playable character to play with.
