Xbox one 2 person split screen not working

Thanks for the quick response. Just to be clear- my kids wont be able to play “split-screen” server games on the same console. It seems like they can play together, but not online server.

Yes i have the same question.

Hey there,

We will be locking this older thread due to it being revived by a new post. If the issue is
on going, we recommend creating a new thread
detailing the issue at hand and any troubleshooting steps (if any) you’ve tried so far. We will be more than happy to answer any questions.

Thank you!

I have the same question as well! Why cant my kids play online together! If my other son can join in praying on another devise in the same house then why can they not both play on the xbox online together split screen????

Hi JM,

Thanks for reaching out to us here on the Forums! We understand you want to have a split screen on Minecraft so your kids can play together. Split screen requires a screen with an output of 720p or higher, the console's video output needs to be configured
accordingly. The video mode can be checked by going to Settings > System > Console Settings > Display - Make sure this is set to 720p or higher. If it is
not, the split screen option will not work.

Step 1. Select play game and choose to either Create a New world or Load a previous world and make sure you are using 720p video, using a Component or HDMI cable.

Step 2. Make sure to uncheck the Online Game box.

Step 3. After entering the world, press start on the controller you wish to bring into the game.

Step 4. Sign in the player who will be using the controller.

Local split screen can be played with up to 4 players. Also, you can also visit the "Minecraft forums" regarding any in-game questions or concerns.

Let us know if this helps
