# Multiplayer UI input

Give each local player their own UI on a shared screen, with separate navigation and selection per controller or device.

The Input System uses a [Multiplayer Event System](xref:UnityEngine.InputSystem.UI.MultiplayerEventSystem) so multiple [UI Input Module](using-ui-input-module.md) instances can run at once—one per player. Start with the introduction, then configure components and Player Root hierarchy for your scene.
