Splitscreeen Multiplayer: Second screen disappears immediately

XMLWordPrintable

    • Unconfirmed
    • Nintendo Switch

      The Bug

      It is impossible to join as a second or successive player in splitscreen mode using a second controller. After picking a second user from the menu, the game freezes for a moment, and immediately removes the second player.

      Affects

      Both vertical and horizontal splitscreen modes are affected by this issue. I am unable to confirm if this also happens on similar consoles like the Playstation 4 or the Xbox One.

      How to Replicate

      • Join a singleplayer world
      • On a second controller, join in splitscreen mode
      • Let out a sigh, as couch co-op is broken
