How do I add a player to a local split screen game?

On a Nintendo Switch, when you play Rico, how do you add the second player for a local coop game with split screen? I am trying case mode, but can't find out how to add my friend. I don't have Nintendo online, and for local coop with split screen I should not need it.


Solution 1:

Eventually I found out. Disconnect the second controller from the switch via the controller menu. Enter the game and go into the lobby. Reconnect the second controller. It will appear a player called player split screen.
