How to use second Stadia controller

Jump to Best Response

Hello. Today I received my promotion controller and own two of them now.

If I want to play multiplayer on one screen, do I need a second Stadia Pro account or do I use my current account for the second controller as well?

Thank you.

Hey @GermanBratwurst,

you can only be logged in on Stadia with one account at a time, so technically you both could have each a Stadia account, but on the screen itself you need to decide if you want to log in or your mate/partner.

I guess it's only important depending on which account you would like to collect the achievements when you both play together. Or if the games (Stadia Pro games) are only on one account and you're not in a Google family, then probably best to login with that account that has claimed the games.

I have played Get packed and Mortal Kombat 11 with my BF, so it worked that way. Especially for MK11 we were trying to figure out as well if it's possible to use 2 accounts, but nope.
