Are You Allowed To Use PS4 Controllers?

[Darling-Leech]

I'm thinking about buying the game(But hesitant cuz some peeps are having issues etc) and I was curious if it would be a problem or not to use the PS4 controller on here(I only ever used the ps4 controller so yea lol)?

I always use a Ps4 controller on pc, If you have DS4 drivers for it then the game itself shouldnt matter. Only trouble ive ever had in any game is it showing xbox controller for doing things in game but ps4 still works fine.
Whats more this was a playstation exclusive, id expect ps4 controller working better than KBM when they first started the pc port so it shouldnt still be fine now.

DS4Windows might work.

Can confirm. It does. Need to keep steam input enabled in Horizon's properties though.

I'm using Razer Raiju Ultimate, which is the super high-end PS4 controller. It works perfectly here.

There is PS4 controller support, you just need a PS4 controller adapter that contains the original files. Any other adapter will emulate it as 360 controller.

Just get something like one of these:

I use my switch pro controller to play games and it works great. It converts almost any modern bluetooth controller to xinput to work on PC.

Those just emulate the PS4 gamepad as a 360 gamepad. Something which free programs can already do for you.

Try and get the official PS4 Dualshock bluetooth adapater

It looks like that.

Enable DS4 support in BPM on steam. You may not get icons though.

It looks like that.

Nothing does that without problems for the switch pro controller, I was using them before and they caused me a lot of grief. I had some luck with the steam one but even then.
One cheap $20 plug in play option that works across everything without ever having to mess with it is always nice.

Though if a PS4 specific one exists and that is primarily and only what you plan to use, yeah I would go with that for sure.

I have the first one, while it works it will emulate the controller as Xbox360 type. I even contacted the support and they said it was done correctly. Have not tried the second one. If it can emulate the DS4 controller properly then yeah it could be good.

Otherwise you want the Official PS4 Dualshock bluetooth adapter. It has gone up in price so look around if you can find it closer to you.

Well, why does it matter? Everyone keeps saying that like it's a huge deal, it still works just fine, does it show in games as X instead of A or something when you use the adapter? I mean I've never had a problem with controllers that it ever caused much of an issue.

I looked up that dongle and it costs as much as buying an entire new controller for just the PC, what does the official dongle do that makes it worth that much higher cost?

If you can plug it in and just play with no fuss immediately does it really matter?
