Ever wondered how to double the fun in Minecraft on your Nintendo Switch by playing with a friend on the same console? Well, here’s a quick guide on how to do split screen on Minecraft Nintendo Switch.
Playing Minecraft with friends is always more fun, but it’s even better when you can do it on the same screen. Let’s break down how you can get into split screen mode on your Nintendo Switch.
Quick Answer to Split Screen on Minecraft Nintendo Switch
First things first, make sure your Switch is docked and connected to a TV. Split screen mode in Minecraft on the Nintendo Switch only works in TV mode.
Next, launch Minecraft and navigate to the game’s main menu. Here, select ‘Play Game’ and choose the world you want to play in. Once the world loads, turn on the second controller and press any button to join the game. Voila! You’re now playing Minecraft in split screen mode.
Why Split Screen on Minecraft is Awesome
Split screen mode allows you to share the adventure with a friend or family member. You can explore, build, and battle together without needing a second console. It’s perfect for a fun evening at home.
Remember, both players can use Joy-Con controllers or the Nintendo Switch Pro Controller. Just make sure the controllers are synced to your console, and you’re ready to go!
