Hello, i am not really Nintendo expert but have you tried using the left stick?
Thank you for your report!
However, this issue has been temporarily closed as {color:#ff5722}Awaiting Response{color}.
Do the Joycons normally function correctly in other games and/or when playing solo? Does changing in-game setting have any impact?

Captain yes we tried and it doesn’t help.
Bartlomiej every other game that he has it works fine, it’s just that game. I’ve tried all settings, a new remote, new joy cons, everything. Would it just be the game cartridge thingy?
On the menu screen have you tried going to settings and looking at controls? Maybe the deadzone was set wrong or something?
Also I don't think it's possible that it's the game cartridge's fault. Have you updated the game to the most recent version? (Pressing the Plus button while hovering over the game on the home screen and choosing Software Update)
I will have to check tomorrow. As of right now it is up to date that I last checked.
My son is having the same issue.
Starting the game, in Camp, his character will not move unless he rolls.
The left joycon controller works when opening the map, it can be used to select a mission.
Detaching the joycons from the Switch, and turning them into 2 controllers. Inviting a guest into the Camp. The invited guest moves around fine. My sons character does not.
We started a new game using my profile on the Switch. And the issue is not present. My character can move around without issue in the Camp
Thanks! I’ll see if that helps!
Version 1.16.1.0 was released on October 19th. Is this still an issue in this version?

This is still an issue. 1.16.1.0 has not resolved the problem for my son
In Settings > Controller, you can find Dead Zone settings. Does changing these affect the issue in any way?

yes! Once I got a new game (my son lost the cartridge), it did the same thing so I checked the dead zone settings..fixed those and it works now!
