Can we play hotseat?

Subj, can it be played at the same PC? From 2 PCs with the same Steam account? If we can play at the same PC, can we use xbox joystick and keyboard for different players?

You mean splitscreen.
Seems so, you can play co-op with splitscreen, also the screen fuses or splits depending how far your are from each other.
Dunno how it will look between 2 different pcs.

Hotseat means you switch the player on the seat, that you can do with any game, that is a meaningless term used in turn based games playing with 2 or more characters/factions (mostly being a strategy game thing).

Also the game has a friend pass system.

Both players can use that to play the game for free, but it's a trial edition then.
After one player buys it, then both can continue on playing it from where the trial ended.

Also the game supports family sharing, but that won't work at the same time. So the non host has to use the friend pass variant.
It allows up to 6 people play with their own friends, with just 1 copy being bought.

He didn't mean it, he doesn't know the meaning of the word.
If you actually read the text below the title.

Also yes you can hotseat it regardless how many players are playing the game.
You just give the controller to someone else, or when behind the keyboard you switch the person behind the keyboard and mouse.
It's a pointless term, meaning the person who plays with those controls is switched around with someone else.
Done that plenty of time when playing Tekken or Street Fighter or Mortal Kombat at friends place with multiple friends on a couch, who loses or wins gives the controller to someone else.
