Star Wars Battlefront 2 is a popular online shooter game that features characters, locations, and vehicles from the Star Wars universe.

Star Wars Battlefront 2 Local Multiplayer
Split-Screen Multiplayer on PS4 and Xbox One
If you own a PS4 or an Xbox One, you can play split-screen multiplayer in Star Wars Battlefront 2 through the Arcade mode menu. Arcade mode is an offline mode that lets you play solo or with a friend against AI enemies or each other. You can choose from various scenarios, maps, and custom settings to create your own Star Wars battles. To play split-screen multiplayer in Arcade mode, follow these steps:
From the main menu, select Arcade.
Select either Co-Op or Versus. Co-Op will let you team up with your friend against AI enemies, while Versus will let you compete against your friend.
Select a scenario or create your own custom match. You can choose from different eras, factions, maps, modes, and difficulty levels.
Press X (PS4) or A (Xbox One) to start the match.
Press the Options button (PS4) or the Menu button (Xbox One) on the second controller to join the match as Player 2.
Enjoy the split-screen multiplayer action!
Note that split-screen multiplayer in Arcade mode is only available for PS4 and Xbox One versions of the game. PC players do not have this option.
No Online Split-Screen Multiplayer
Unfortunately, Star Wars Battlefront 2 does not support online split-screen multiplayer. This means that you cannot play online with other players while using split-screen with your friend. You are limited to offline Arcade mode play only when playing local multiplayer. This is a disappointing feature for many fans who would like to enjoy the online modes with their friends on the same screen.
No 4-Player Split-Screen Multiplayer
Another limitation of Star Wars Battlefront 2's local multiplayer mode is that it only supports 2-player split-screen. This means that you cannot play with more than one friend on the same screen. This is a downgrade from the original Star Wars Battlefront 2 (2005), which supported 4-player split-screen multiplayer on consoles. If you want to play Star Wars Battlefront 2 with 4-player local multiplayer, you will need to find an original Xbox and a copy of the 2005 game.
Conclusion
Star Wars Battlefront 2 is a fun and immersive game that lets you experience the Star Wars universe in various ways. However, if you want to share that experience with your friends on the same screen, you will have to settle for the offline Arcade mode that offers split-screen multiplayer for up to 2 players on PS4 and Xbox One. There is no online split-screen multiplayer or 4-player split-screen multiplayer in Star Wars Battlefront 2.
