Apple Arcade - Two players on same TV??

In Apple Arcade, how do you set up two players to play at the same time with two PS Duel sense Controllers?

I thought that LEGO Brawls didn’t support local multiplayer, but instead online multiplayer.

Local multiplayer would indeed mean that multiple players can play on the same device (Apple TV or other).

Online multiplayer means each player uses their own device (Apple TV or other).


Again, for more assistance, contact the game developer’s support staff. What apps can do, is not about Apple, but about each app and how was developed.

Thank you for the response. However this doesn’t answer my question.

my question is how do you set up two players?

My son wants to be one character and I want to be another (specifically on Lego Brawlers). I can not find a player 1 and player 2 option.

I assume local Multiplayer means two people can play each other on the same TV? is that correct or am I misunderstanding something?

In general, it seems to work like this:

  1. Set up one controller before launching the game. This will be the primary controller. It will also have some remote-like capabilities for navigation, even outside the game.
  2. Launch the game.
  3. In-game, connect the second controller (if supported by that game) through the in-app configuration. This will be the secondary controller.


For more assistance, contact the game developer.
