Modern Warfare II (2022) Split-Screen on Xbox Live: Not Supported

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II (2022) does not support split-screen multiplayer on Xbox Live. The feature was omitted entirely from the 2022 release (and Warzone 2.0).

Context

• Split-screen was last available in Modern Warfare (2019) for offline Private Matches only (not online).
• Infinity Ward cited technical constraints (engine rewrite, cross-play parity, performance) for its removal.

Alternatives for Local Co-op

• Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War – 2-player split-screen in Zombies & Private Match (offline).
• Halo: The Master Chief Collection (Xbox) – 4-player split-screen across campaigns & multiplayer.
• Borderlands 3 / Gears 5 – Full campaign split-screen.

For online co-op in MWII, each player needs their own console, copy, and Xbox Live Gold/Game Pass Core subscription.
