For real? No native Dualshock 4 support?
What's that? How is this even possible? Multiplatfrom 2018 fighting game without native DInput controllers support. And it's not some kind of Microsoft exclusive, you also publish this game on PS4 and made all necessary images and stuff. But there's more. You just forbid to mod this client with Denuvo, so, no way to play it apropriately, without this RB, LT, ABXY stuff. I've played SoulCalibur on Dreamcast and it had ABXY icons exactly, right. But I want PS icons for my Dualshock 4 and Xbox icons for XInput controller, as it's essential for every modern PC game. Especially if we're talking about fighting games with all of that close attention to input devices and latency. Bravo, Namco. Nice work.

Use steam to set up controlller, you have to go into Big Picture mode for a few seconds but once you set it up, you don't have to worry about it again

If the suggestion above has any issues you can use DS4Windows to emulate the PS4 pad as a 360 controller.

That program allows you to disable the LED on the controller which will save a lot of battery life anyway. It also shows you the input lag. Wired is always 4ms, so a polling rate of 250. You'd think it'd be 1000 for 1ms but it's not... so you can actually get lower input lag wirelessly if you're not far from your bluetooth receiver. I get around 1.6ms.

Odd, I have no issues with the standard XB1 controller or the XB1 Hori Fighting Commander.

I can count the number of PC games with native DS4 support on both hands

You don't get it, do you? It's XInput wrapper anyway, whenever I use custom software or it's supplied by Steam itself. I'm talking about native DInput Dualshock 4 support, as if it was on PS4. Take a peek at Batman: Arkham Knight or latest Ubisoft games, for example. Even indie titles like Cuphead or Enter the Gungeon has it. Even MGSV and Dark Souls Remastered.

Will it add cross, square, triangle and circle icons instead of A, X, Y, B? Do you understand, that deadzones and overall behavior of analogue sticks is different between native Dualshock 4 and XInput wrapper for Dualshock 4? And don't forget about input lag.

Just use big picture mode to register your ps4 controller and use it like a xbox pad in every game the feature has existed for years now.

I've tried using big picture for my xbox controller, but it still registers no button presses in the game, can't believe i'm having this problem after waiting for so long for the game to come out.

dinput was depreciated 3-4 years ago. xinput is the standard, now.

Someone's using Steam's built-in xinput wrapper, I think

I use a ps4 controller without ds4 windows and it works just fine. At worst it would default your ps4 controller to use xinput.
