Does Dimraeth have split-screen or local multiplayer?
A direct answer from the official FAQ, plus how to avoid confusing online co-op with couch co-op.
Applies to: Official FAQ · local multiplayer
Quick answer
Not currently. Dimraeth supports online co-op, but the official FAQ says it does not offer local or split-screen multiplayer. Two people on one screen and players joining online are different setups.
Does Dimraeth have split-screen?
No. Mudtek’s official FAQ says Dimraeth supports online co-op but does not currently offer local or split-screen multiplayer. Connecting a second controller to one PC does not create a second local player.
| Feature | Current status | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Solo play | Supported | One player can complete the game from start to finish. |
| Online co-op | Supported | Up to eight players can join online. |
| Local co-op | Not currently supported | Two players cannot share one installation as a local group. |
| Split-screen | Not currently supported | The game does not divide one display into separate player views. |
| Dedicated/private servers | Not currently supported | Online sessions use peer-to-peer hosting. |
Use online co-op for a group
Each participant needs an appropriate online setup and should run the same current game version. One player hosts the peer-to-peer world. Story progress, recruited allies and buildings remain tied to that world, while each hero carries level, equipment, inventory, spells and personal progression between worlds.
For a regular group, choose the main host before building or advancing the story. See the solo and co-op guide and hosting guide for the full setup.
Do not treat requests as announcements
Early Access features can change, but Mudtek has not confirmed a future local mode in the sources reviewed here. A community request, controller icon or generic “co-op” store tag is not proof of split-screen support.
Check the official FAQ and dated Steam news after major multiplayer updates. Until an official statement changes, plan group play as online co-op on separate setups.
