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.
Launch and connect
Press Launch: Nucleus opens one copy of Wolfenstein: Youngblood 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.

Nucleus links the windows through the game's own LAN or online mode; the handler takes care of it.

Handler notes

Split-screen setup.
IMPORTANT: The game can be very demanding so reduce graphics settings like textures and shadows in your main game before running this. One player must host a public game and start the game, once the host has started the game the other player can press quickmatch to join the game, make sure each player selects a different sister.
Wait until all instances finish setting up, do not alt-tab or click on an instance after that or you will lose focus, if you lose focus in-game press the END key once to get focus back. Gamepads only for now. You can change the FOV in-game if you play in horizontal splitscreen.
Read the FAQ if you have any further questions and want to know more about Nucleus Co-op.
Handler by me Talos91, ZeroFox and PoundlandBacon, special thanks to the Split Screen Dreams discord for all the help and testing and to Mr. Goldberg for the LAN server for this game.
