Does GTA 6 Have Split-Screen or Co-op?
GTA 6 is very unlikely to have local split-screen. Playing with friends will almost certainly happen through the online mode, where cooperative activities and heists are expected.
Will GTA 6 have local split-screen?
Almost certainly not. Modern Grand Theft Auto games haven't featured local split-screen, and GTA 6's enormous, detailed world would be extremely demanding to render twice on one console. Local couch co-op simply isn't how the series works anymore. If you're hoping to share one screen with a friend, that's very unlikely to be supported.
How you'll play with friends
The way to play together in GTA is online. GTA Online let players team up across the map for missions, heists and activities, and a successor online mode is widely expected for GTA 6. That's where cooperative play lives — each player on their own console or PC, connected over the internet, sharing the same online world.
What co-op could look like
- Online cooperative heists and missions with friends.
- Shared activities and events across Vice City and Leonida.
- Each player on their own system, connected online (not local split-screen).
The bottom line
If you want to play GTA 6 with friends, plan for the online mode rather than couch co-op. Expect rich cooperative content online, but don't expect to share a single screen locally. Rockstar hasn't detailed the online mode yet, so specifics on co-op activities are still to come.

Local split-screen is very unlikely. Modern GTA games don't support it, and GTA 6's demanding world makes it impractical.
Can you play GTA 6 co-op with friends?
Yes, expected — but through the online mode over the internet, not local split-screen. Each player needs their own system.
