Alright, so I wanted to try out this WWE 2K24 game with two controllers, you know, for some good old couch co-op fun. Figured it’d be a blast to have a friend over and beat the crap out of each other in the virtual ring. But let me tell you, it wasn’t as straightforward as I thought it would be.
First off, I hooked up both my controllers to my PC. One’s a trusty old Xbox controller, and the other one’s a newer PlayStation one. I booted up the game, went into the options, and tried to set up a local multiplayer match. Now, here’s where things started getting wonky.
The game recognized both controllers, no problem there. But when I tried to select a character with the second controller, it just wouldn’t let me. It was like the game was only seeing the first controller and the keyboard. I was like, “What the heck is going on here?”
I tried all sorts of things. I unplugged and replugged the controllers, restarted the game, even restarted my whole damn computer. Nothing seemed to work. I went online, scouring forums and Reddit threads, and it turns out I wasn’t the only one with this problem. Some folks were saying it’s a bug, others were saying you need some third-party software to make it work.
Then after some digging, I found it! I just needed to walk to the left stick, and then set up spots, finally, I can play with my bro! I’m not gonna lie, I was pretty frustrated there for a while. But in the end, I was happy that I could finally enjoy some two-player action. Now, when I can totally kick back, relax, and not worry about trying to win every single match. It’s all about having a good time, right?
Here’s a little breakdown of what I did:
- Connected two controllers to my PC.
- Launched WWE 2K24.
- Faced issues with the second controller not being recognized properly in the game.
- Tried basic troubleshooting steps like replugging controllers and restarting the game/PC.
- Found that it might be a common issue and others were experiencing it too.
- Used left stick to solve this problem.
- Played with my bro happily ever after.
So yeah, that’s my little adventure with getting two controllers to work on WWE 2K24. It wasn’t the smoothest ride, but hey, I got there in the end. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’ve got some virtual wrestling to do!
