PS4 controller not working?
Keyboard takes over inputs, controller immediately uses gyro for cursor (Then I disabled gyro inputs. Cursor stopped moving, but keyboard still takes over input).
Controller inputs double-press. "Try to disable Steam input in controller settings", doesn't work. Keyboard and Controller icons appear, but switches immediately back to Keyboard.
Please fix this Devs, so I can enjoy your Enhanced Edition :)

I heard controller inputs work on the previous build (non-enhanced version) but I want to enjoy this title with those fancy Ray Tracing upgrades in the Enhanced Edition upgrade.
I'm using Bluetooth btw, if that means anything to those that also have this issue.

I got my DS4 to work after swapping configs about 3x, and rebooting the game. Menus are still questionable. But in game seems to be working fine.

Same issue, I can't even open the door at the start. Disconnecting Keyboard/mouse does not work either. It is almost as if the game is registering that these peripherals are connected AND being used, even they are not.

Go into setting and turn off everything from Steams side about controlling your controller. The game will provide support natively for your controller. You only turn on the Steam controller support when your controller doesn't work. The gyro, is a steam config for the game, which you should have seen when loading the game. If you are in this thread, then do yourself a favor and get familiar with the Controller Settings in Steam.

Settings>Controllers> General Controller settings. Un-check everything.

Also, before you load a game, you can access General Controller settings, and you can see if your controller is working or not. You can un-check everything, and your controller should be registering.

I greatly appreciate the help! Although, it unfortunately did not work for me.

When I do this and launch the game (without Big Picture mode), the "Controller" option in the game's settings is still greyed out. It's the same if the boxes are ticked. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong, maybe it's the Bluetooth support that doesn't let the game detect a controller is in use? I assume wired is the only method that works? If so, meh.

All my controllers are wireless. You shouldn’t be in big picture mode at all. If you are then you get configs loaded and Steam takes control of the controller. Turn all of that off in Big Picture. Also, if you have a fake PS4 controller, that could be your issue, but I doubt it. Turn off all controller support in Big Picture, then access the controller settings at the desktop level, and turn them all off, and see if that works. If not then turn on PS support from settings, not Big Picture. If it doesn’t work at that point then your Bluetooth adapter or something else is your issue.

If you see a config loaded from Steam, then Big Picture still has control of your controller.

bump, same prob with bluetooth DS4 controllers, holding down a button is like pressing it thousands of times per second.

Disable steamcontroller input for the game and download Dualsense X.

That worked for me.

Best way I found if you dont want to download 3rd part software is to disable steam input in big picture mode, and then connect your controller through a cable to your pc. Yeah it sucks to play it wired but the controller will work fine. For me it did at least.
I'm having this issue but when using Remote Play. The controller connected to the PC works fine but the Luna controller is not detected by the game because in Remote Play Steam input is always on.
