Adjust game controller settings on Apple TV
If you have a supported game controller that’s connected to Apple TV, you can set up custom profiles and assign specific controls to buttons.
You can also customize controls for specific apps and set up a Buddy Controller so that two game controllers act as one.
Set up a custom profile
Do either of the following:
Press and hold the TV button
on the Siri Remote to open Control Center, then select the General Settings tab 
.Open Settings
on Apple TV, then go to Remotes and Devices > Bluetooth.
Select a connected game controller device.
To confirm the controller by playing a vibration pattern, select Identify Controller.
To add a custom profile, select Add Profile, then enter a profile name and select Done.
Select the custom profile to see a list of customizable controls and a diagram of the game controller.
Navigate up or down to highlight controls in the list.
As you highlight a control, its corresponding button is also highlighted on the diagram for reference.
Select the control you want, then select any of the available options for the control.
To restore default settings, scroll to the bottom of the list, then select Reset to Defaults. To delete the profile, select Delete This Profile.
Add a custom profile to an app
To use a custom profile with an app, first set up a profile as described in the task above.

Set up Buddy Controller
With Buddy Controller, you can combine two game controllers to play games on Apple TV as a single player. This makes it easier for people to learn how to play or get to the next level with some assistance from a friend. Only one controller at a time can be set as the primary controller.

on the Siri Remote to open Control Center, then select the General Settings tab .Open Settings

To turn off Buddy Controller, select Buddy Controller, then select Unset.
