Minecraft Ps3 Edition How to Play Split Screen Offline

Splitscreen is a console-exclusive feature that allows up to four players to play on one screen at the same time. It is supported on the Legacy Console Edition (excluding PS Vita) and console versions of Bedrock Edition. Mini Games, Realms, and peer-to-peer online multiplayer has support for splitscreen. External servers, including the featured servers, do not.

Using Splitscreen requires a screen with an output of at least 720p or higher. On television screens, this can be achieved using either an HDMI or RGB component cable. The render distance is decreased with every additional player, at least on Console Edition.

On Xbox, Local Splitscreen can be played using Local, Silver, and Gold accounts, while Online Splitscreen can only be played using Gold and Guest accounts. Guest accounts can only be signed in at the start of a session; they cannot join existing sessions. They can only be an Xbox Live account.

The PlayStation Vita Edition is the only Console Edition that does not support splitscreen. This is because Vita's native resolution is too low.

Setup [ ]

Because 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 does not work.

Because of the resolution requirement, splitscreen cannot be played through Off-TV Play on the Wii U GamePad in the Wii U Edition. However, the Nintendo Switch version of Minecraft and the old Nintendo Switch Edition do support splitscreen even without a TV, purely because its screen has a higher resolution of 720p over the Wii U Gamepad's 480p screen.
