Larian is saying the the split screen will be in there for the Xbox-S. They said they are working with Microsoft to get it up to speed.
So you are saying the S has a different cpu, so split screen will not happen?
It HAS to be there due to Microsoft’s multiple requirements, both the X and S both have to be the same game, and Microsoft isn’t going to allow split screen not be in their release as well.
It's slightly slower. It's still not bad (unlike last gen where they came out of the box trash), but it's an extra complication.
If they say they can still do split screen, I'm sure they can, but it's generally something that takes more CPU load, so it's taking extra work to do to their standards.
Larian specifically said they’re working on optimizing for Xbox right now, so it seems like they’re pretty confident in making it happen. They seem like they’ve been pretty on the ball for promised features, so I’m pretty confident it will come out.
