Poe2 Couch co-op with two accounts.

"
Is couch co-op available in Early Access?
Yes, you can play Path of Exile 2 in couch co-op mode on a single account right from the start. The second player will be able to create a character on that account.


Is that the only way to play couch co-op? I want to play couch co-op with a friend and keep the character on our respective account. Do we have to play on seperate systems for this?

I watched that video multiple times. It sounds like we should be able to play with two accounts on a single system. This is not working on PS5. I haven't tried another system yet.

https://youtu.be/GqYTZHX-QVE?t=213 -> mention of multiple accounts.

Is this a bug or just not in yet?
Any update on this? Facing the same issue.
Bump. Same issue and GGG advertised it clearly in the videos as a possible way to play. Now it's obviously not possible, people are asking about it and GGG doesn't respond. When will this be fixed/ implemented?
Bump as well. I have seen conflicting information on this and am wondering if it is a bug that will be fixed/just not done yet, or is this never going to happen. Couch co op is much MUCH better if a friend can stop by who already knows how to play and you both jump on vs having them start a new character. This way it is pretty much useless.

Hope we at least get a response on the long term plan for this. Not very hopeful to be honest.
