How do I enable the 2nd player controller? Thanks

Hey there SixthDistress71,

Are you having issues connecting the controller to the console or being able to have a second player use the controller to play? Did the other person using the controller sign into their own profile yet? For most games, they need to sign into a profile for
the game to be able to tracks stats as well as earn their own Achievements.

Thank you, I've managed to connect the 2nd controller but I cant seem to find the 2 player option on Minecraft?

Hi you can sync controller no issues and can assign an account to it. But when we go into any game for a 2 player it does not work. Once you sync a 2nd controller how do you get it to actually work in a game?

Try the following.

From the main menu, select PLAY GAME

Select MORE OPTIONS

In there you should see the top option is enabled (ONLINE GAME), un-check/un-tick/un-select this option. If that option is enabled it will be trying to connect to Xbox Live which requires a Gold Account on the console.

Press B to go back

Select LOAD

Once the world loads, it should show a prompt for how the 2nd player can join in (May be A button or the Menu (used to be START) on the 2nd controller)

The screen should go split screen and away you go, enjoy your Minecraft gaming.

Thanks, but no. It still acts as if there is only one controller, both act as primary controller and hitting the enter button takes you back to the first screen. Can't even choose a car for the 2nd player. Have you played 2 player?
