Is it possible to utilize more than one basemap in an offline map?  I have two pre-loaded basemaps on a device and would like to provide a basemap switcher to users who have taken a map offline.

You could set the top basemap layer as an 10.2.2 ArcGIS Server tiled map service with export enabled and have it as an operational layer and then use the topo layer as a basemap layer and you can have both right now and download it as one map.

Hi Russ. can you expand on this? We need an offline map showing our assets and imagery. Is it best to bake a single tpk, or can we have an offline asset tpk along with switchable offline basemap tpks?

You can side load both onto the device and if they are within the same extent you can change the basemaps while offline or have one setup as a hosted service and download that with the map and have the other one side loaded and you will see it in the basemap gallery.

Unfortunately we don't have server, can we do this with ArcGIS Online?

Right now you cannot export tiles from a hosted service but this is something we are working on.

Thanks Russ, this is finally working and is exactly what we were looking for to overlay our assets on an imagery basemap.

Would still be good to have multiple, switchable basemaps, hopefully in the next release!
