Minecraft split-screen is exclusively available on consoles (Xbox, PlayStation, Nintendo Switch). PC users, unfortunately, can't utilize this feature. Ensure your TV or monitor supports at least 720p HD resolution, and that your console is capable of outputting this resolution. HDMI connection is recommended for automatic resolution adjustment; VGA may require manual configuration within your console's settings.

Online Multiplayer with Local Split-Screen:
While you can't directly split-screen with online players, you can combine local split-screen with online multiplayer. Follow steps 1-3 above, but enable the multiplayer function before starting the game. Send invitations to your online friends to join your local split-screen session.
