How to play Luma Island split screen on PC

  1. Get Nucleus Co-op

    Download Nucleus Co-op, free for Windows 10 and 11, and unzip it into its own folder, for example C:\NucleusCo-op. There is no installer.

    Keep it out of Program Files, your user folder and OneDrive.

    Download Nucleus Co-op

  2. Install the Luma Island handler

    In Nucleus Co-op, search the Hub for Luma Island and install its handler, or download the handler file from this page and drop it on the Nucleus window. Then show Nucleus where Luma Island is installed.

  3. Take a seat

    Each player presses a button on their own controller to join and takes a spot on the screen. Pick a layout that fits your players.

    Playing with several keyboards and mice? Press End once everything is in place to give each window its own cursor.

  4. Launch and connect

    Press Launch: Nucleus opens one copy of Luma Island per player and lays the windows out on your screen. Then link them in game, usually one player hosts a LAN or online session and the others join it. The handler notes say how.

  • Thank you so much for your dedicated efforts. My nieces and nephews and I really enjoy this game. It's a pity that the game doesn't natively support local multiplayer, but now we can have fun together on one PC through Nucleus — it feels amazing. Thanks again!

  • Thank you so much, i was waiting for this.
