Steelseries Nimbus+ controller
Hello.

I recently bought the Steelseries Nimbus+ controller (Nimbus Plus), hoping I could play my Steam for Mac collection with it. I turned it on, paired it with bluetooth, connected it witch cable... and Steam don't recognise it. The system seems to detect it well, and I can use it out of Steam.

Any help?

Thank you!

Same here. I had the earlier Nimbus controller and it worked in Steam, but steam won't recognize the Plus controller. The Plus works fine on my Mac in Stadia so it seems it is a Steam issue.

reply from the apple team Thanks for your feedback.
Some of these games are built using game engines that access game controllers

in a different way than through the
Apple-provided Game Controller framework,

which knows how to work with the Elite V2 controller. Over time as games and game engines update we expect they’ll begin supporting more controllers.

They are saying you need to report steam until they implement the apple game controller API

This is very disappointing that there is no support for this controller while its predecessor was supported
Any chances for support in a future?

I finally left this controller and use a Xbox 360 one. I can't give any news about the state of this.
