PS4 Controller doesn't work.

My PS4 controller doesn't work on Battleblock Theater yet it works on Castle Crashers. Can anyone tell me how to fix this?

Don't know, but google is your friend when it comes to these things

Haven't tested this, but it might work:
Go into Steam Big Picture mode -> Settings -> Controller Settings, there check PS4 Controller Support. Then you can exit Big Picture mode and start the game.

You should go to big picture settings

I had the same issue last night actually Sir Swagalot. I decided to start playing at the same time

The way to resolve this is to launch the game and change the video settings from Windowed to Fullscreen.
Then re-launch the game, your controller should work now.

If this doesn't help then ensure that Steam recognises your controller. This is generally tested by pressing the PS Button within Steam to open Big Picture.
Just to confirm: you don't need to be in big picture for the controller to work. I was using it via Bluetooth via a Steam In-home stream and clicking the game directly in the standard library.

I hope this helps!

That is not a good idea anymore. Ever since Steam officially supported the PS4 controllers, the DS4 driver is recognised as a second controller. So in my case it thought that my PS4 controller was Player 1 and 2

I had to close DS4 to remove this problem.

I just use the “hide controller” feature within DS4 to fix that for most games. Works on Rocket League. I like DS4 windows because of the customizable rumble setting and backlight.

Wasn’t impressed with the PS4 controller rumble out of the packaging so I maxed it out to 150% in the DS4 program. I always use DS4.
