In the question“What are the best split-screen PS4 games?” Star Wars: Battlefront is ranked 57th while Chariot is ranked 58th. The most important reason people chose Star Wars: Battlefront is:
Battlefront has fast-paced action and large scale battles between The Empire and the Rebels. There's a lot of shooting involved, so expect to see a flurry of laser beams overhead constantly. Most of the battles involve taking or holding a location from the opposing side. You can move around on foot or jump using your jetpack, which is useful for scaling walls and hills. You can enter various vehicles such as the AT-AT walker, which makes for great fun. When you die, you'll respawn after a short delay. This causes it to become a tug-of-war where one side slowly overpowers the other.

Pro Recreates many beautiful movie-like locations
Fight against the Empire or the Rebels in beautiful locations from the films, and visited and recreated by the developers: Hoth, Jakku, Endor and Tatooine.
Pro Split-screen co-op
During a current trend to leave out this feature, Battlefront includes local co-op where you and a friend can fight off waves of imperial troops and walkers. This mode is also available online as well.
Pro Iconic Star Wars characters featured
Play as favorite classic Star Wars characters. Luke, Han, Leia, Boba Fett, Darth Vader and the Emperor are all there.
Pro Gameplay is similar to the original games
The gameplay of Battlefront follows closely with the style of the original games, with fast-paced action and large scale battles for the fate of the galaxy.
Pro Gameplay excels with local co-op
While single-player mode is fun the game excels when playing the local co-op mode where 2 players can bicker and squabble over how best to move the chariot across the stage. This co-op mode definitely makes for a great time trying to figure out the puzzles when two people are both trying their own ideas, which can lead to funnily disastrous outcomes.
Pro Unique focus on carrying an item around each level, over traditional platforming
The goal of each stage it to carry around a sarcophagus to an end point. This can is done by using ropes to help pull the sarcophagus around each stage, which requires more thought over a traditional platformer where jumping from platform to platform is the only concern.
Cons
Con No campaign
There is no single-player campaign; and it seems there never will be. No rich story to go with our current generation Star Wars shooter. Only limited Co-op missions fighting off waves of enemies.
Con Expensive season pass
While some DLC has been free so far, like the Battle of Jakku; EA and DICE set a pricy amount of $50 for the season pass, bringing the total cost to over $100 just to purchase the game and season pass at face value.
Con Enemies feel out of place with the games momentum
A puzzle platformer at heart, when enemies are thrown into the mix the game becomes quite frenzied, which takes the player out of the zone of just traversing stages to now haphazardly avoiding enemies.
