It will soon be enjoyed among friends online using the Remote Play Together Beta, enabling fans to introduce your local multiplayer game to new audiences. This feature is designed to add value to multiplayer games which do not already have native online capabilities. With fast connections, additional players may be supported.
The feature requires a connection between 10 to 30 Mbps for a successful low-latency session, with results depending upon the Internet speeds of everyone playing.
Remote Play Together is built on top of Steam’s existing Remote Play technologies and supports up to 4 players and renders 60 frames per second at a resolution of 1080p. The player hosting the game can also choose to allow or block inputs to their shared keyboard and mouse. Much like a traditional split-screen experience, the host’s computer is running the game, but with Remote Play Together friends can join using their own controllers, voice, audio, and display - regardless of whether they also own the game on Steam.Īny controllers connected to the second player's computer will act as if they're plugged directly into the first computer. When the Friend accepts an invitation to play, it’s as though they’re playing side by side at the same machine. The invitation is just like handing a second controller to a friend. Using the Remote Play Together Beta, a player can simply launch any game with support for local multiplayer, local co-op or shared / split-screen features and then via the Steam Overlay, invite a Friend to join their game for some multiplayer fun.
