Dirt 5 co-op mode on PS4 PS5, Xbox: How to play?
Firstly, you must know that, to play co-op mode in any game on a particular console (PS or Xbox), you need to have at least two controllers with you. If the game allows co-op mode for more than two players, then you must have the same number of controllers as the number of players. For those who don’t know, Dirt 5 allows up to 4 players in the co-op mode.
Let’s assume that you have two controllers and you and your friend are ready to play Dirt 5 co-op mode. Now that you have two controllers, you need to connect the second controller to PS4, PS5, or Xbox. Now, you have to sign in to the secondary profile/Gamertag from the second controller, so that the controller gets assigned to it. If you don’t have an account, you can even sign in as a guest.
After you have logged in to the second profile, launch Dirt 5 on your console and go to the main menu. Here, you will see an option saying Join Splitscreen. Select the same by touching the touchpad on the PS4 or PS5 controller. For the Xbox users, press the View button on the second controller and choose the Gamertag (which must be different from player one). You should see a message saying “A player has joined the game”.
Finally, you must select the mode you want to play in co-op split-screen mode (Free Play from Arcade mode is recommended). If you found this article helpful, share it with your friends.
