Timesplitters 2 kommer ikke til at indholde online multiplayer funktion. I en pressemeddelelse for nylig meddelte Eidos Interactive at online elementet er blevet trukket ud af Timesplitters 2, grunden til dette er at spillets udvikler Free Radical Design ikke mener at de online muligheder der er for PS2 i øjeblikket er tilfredstillende.
Her er hvad de sagde:
"We had always hoped to include an Internet online component in the PlayStation 2 version of TimeSplitters 2," - "However the infrastructure is not yet in place that will enable us to incorporate an online element and still make the game's proposed release date. We certainly don't want to delay the release of one of the year's most anticipated games and as a result disappoint the many fans who are eagerly awaiting the game."
Timesplitters 2 vil stadig kunne spilles i "link", og det vil sige at op til 16 spillere kan spille imod hinanden i lokalt netværk.
