Hooking up multiple controllers to your Steam Deck is a breeze! First, make sure your controllers are either Bluetooth or have a compatible dongle for wireless connection. From the Steam Deck's ‘Settings’ menu, navigate to ‘Bluetooth’ and put your controller into pairing mode. The Steam Deck should pick it up, and you can connect it right away. If your controllers are wired, just use a USB-C hub to plug them all in. You can jump into multiplayer action in no time!

Just use a USB-C hub. Plug and play, literally.

Honestly, Bluetooth is the way to go. Did this with a couple of friends last weekend, and it couldn't have been smoother. Had four controllers connected for some party games and the Steam Deck didn't miss a beat. Remember though, not all games support multiple controllers, so check that first!
