• Console Only: Split-screen functionality is exclusive to consoles (Xbox, PlayStation, Nintendo Switch). PC players are unfortunately excluded.
• Display Resolution: Your TV or monitor must support at least 720p HD resolution, and your console must be capable of outputting this resolution. HDMI connection is recommended for automatic resolution adjustment; VGA connections may require manual configuration within your console's settings.

Local Split-Screen Gameplay (Up to 4 Players):

1. Connect your console: Use an HDMI cable to connect your console to your HD display.
2. Launch Minecraft: Start Minecraft and choose to create a new world or load an existing one. Crucially, disable the multiplayer option in the game's settings.
3. Configure your world: Select your desired difficulty, game mode, and world settings. If loading a pre-existing world, skip this step.
4. Activate additional players: Once the game loads, press the appropriate button to add players. This is typically the "Options" button (PS) or the "Start" button (Xbox), often requiring a double-press.
5. Player login: Each additional player will need to log into their Minecraft account to join the game.
6. Automatic split-screen: Upon successful login, the screen will automatically split into multiple sections (2-4 players).

Online Multiplayer with Local Split-Screen:

While you can't split-screen with remote online players directly, you can combine local split-screen with online multiplayer. Follow the same steps as above, but enable the multiplayer option before starting the game. Then, send invitations to your online friends to join your session.

Enjoy the immersive cooperative experience that Minecraft offers! Gather your friends and create unforgettable gaming memories.
