Top 10 Offline Multiplayer Games for Endless Fun Without WiFi
In this increasingly connected digital world, many of us still love to play without relying on internet access, especially when on the road or in areas where connectivity can be unreliable. Whether you're with your family, roommates, or just having one close gaming buddy, offline multiplayer games can offer hours — even days — of enjoyment. Whether you’re a PlayStation junkie looking for a solid story mode experience, or curious whether a game like Delta Force is controller compatible, you’ll find the answer — and much more — in this carefully handpicked list of titles.
Why You Still Need to Love Offline Play
- Zero latency compared to online laggy experiences
- No internet? No problem.
- Gather people in real life, not virtually!
- Perfect for LAN parties, trips, and weekend binges.
For gamers in Slovakia, especially, internet stability might be an issue — but you can't put a number on face-to-face couch co-op fun.
All Time Greatest Multplayer Games Without Internet
The following titles represent a mix of genres, difficulty curves, and replay values. All of them are optimized for two or more people. We also looked into how well they integrate local split-screen modes or local hot-seat setups, depending on hardware specs and console availability.
| Title | Main Features | Platforms | # Players |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bloodborne | Dark, gritty story-driven co-op mode; no online multiplayer | PlayStation 4, PS5 | 2 players |
| Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime | Funny spaceship management co-op | Xbox Series, PC | 2-4 players |
| Terraria / Stardew Valley | Sandbox fun / Farm management and romance simulation | Consoles + Switch | 2-4 players |
| Bros. | Fully offline co-op adventure with weird humor and brutal traps | Nintendo Switch, PS4+ | 2 players |
| Rayman Legends | Energetic rhythm-based side scroller | N/A or 2P on screen | 2-4 players |
- Bloodborne isn't an online game, perfect for dark souls fans looking to play offline multiplayer only.
- Terraria and Stardew Valley both allow offline play in splitscreen modes — a blessing on road trips or at student dorm get togethers.
- Rayman is surprisingly well-suited for small hands — great for children or non-hardcore audiences.
Can You Use Controller on Delta Force?
A fair warning for all players considering a controller-friendly military FPS game: the recent Delta Force: Extreme Valor did not natively offer a hotseat local option. In many early titles in the Delta Force saga, such support didn't exist at all. However, if you're on PC or PlayStation and using some modified patches, you might be able to use an emulator. But generally, we do not recommend Delta Force for couch co-op sessions, unlike titles above, which were all tested in local modes.
The Storytelling Giants on PS – Beyond Action
While most multiplayer game experiences are built for action rather than narrative immersion, that's not always true. On PlayStation specifically, games like Journey or the underrated Mother Russia Bleeds deliver a rich story that also offers couch or LAN gameplay features. In contrast, something like Last of Us Part 2, while featuring a gripping story, lacks any offline multiplayer functionality altogether.
Conclusion: Rediscovering Fun Without the Web
You don’t need WiFi to create memories with a friend or family. Titles like Bros, Terraria and Stardew remind us of this in a digital age — when everyone seems plugged into Discord and not eachother.
If you're a fan of story mode experiences on your PS console and also crave offline interactions, look no further. Even though Delta Force doesn't deliver the best local options, other alternatives shine far brighter in offline glory — and in many cases, even include controller-friendly designs, co-op mechanics, or even hotseat gameplay modes for those with fewer systems to go around.
