So when he walks over, using the gamepad as Ben, he ends up controlling Kevin with the gamepad instead.

Is there anyway to get around this?

We have also tried walking over as Ben with KB/M and starting Co-op. In Co-op, Ben is always controlled with KB/M.

Please advice.

Can you please look into this? Shouldn't be all too hard having a choice in what controller player two uses.

Hi!

We are sorry to hear your little one is having this issue to play in Co-Op mode.

We are afraid the game is this way by design. Whenever you enter co-op the keyboard and mouse are always player 1 and the gamepad becomes player 2.
The game considers the keyboard and mouse to always be player 1, so you will always play with Ben when entering co-op. The only way around this is having two controllers connected. If you connect a second controller, the two characters move each with one controller.

We are sorry for the inconvenience.

Thank you.

This must be easily patchable since the player inputs are not hard bound (as a singleplayer game the game pad works fine!)
