PS5 Games for Two on One Couch: The Ultimate Friendship (and Marriage) Test

PS5 Games for Two on One Couch: The Ultimate Friendship (and Marriage) Test

Quick answer: It Takes Two and Split Fiction are the best two-player stories. EA SPORTS FC is the best competitive couch game. Overcooked-style chaos games and LEGO titles are perfect with kids. You’ll need a second DualSense.

Online gaming is great, but nothing beats shouting at the person sitting next to you. These games are built for one screen and two players.

Best stories for two

  • It Takes Two — a couple shrunk into dolls has to work together to get home. Every level is a new game. Funny, creative, and it will test your teamwork.
  • Split Fiction — from the same studio: two writers trapped inside their own sci-fi and fantasy stories.

Best competitive couch games

  • EA SPORTS FC — classic. Loser makes the tea.
  • Mortal Kombat / Tekken / Street Fighter — fighting games settle every argument.

Best with kids and family

  • LEGO games — drop-in/drop-out co-op, easy for younger players.
  • Astro Bot — mostly single-player, but perfect for passing the controller.

Gear you need

A second DualSense controller and a charging station so neither controller dies mid-match. Read how to keep controllers charged.
