How to connect a PS5 controller to a PC (wired)įor this, you’ll need a USB-C cable to plug into the controller’s data/charging port. You can do this with a wired connection, or over Bluetooth. Speaking of which, you’ll first need to get the PS5 controller hooked up to your PC. It’s basically emulating an Xbox controller, which is why some games will keep showing Xbox button prompts when you have a PlayStation controller connected. You can even connect a pad with no official Windows drivers – like the PS5 DualSense – and Steam will translate inputs so that games can understand them. Unless a game recognises both driver types, your PS5 controller won’t work – unless, that is, Steam steps in to bridge the gap.Īs hard as the Steam Controller flopped, it has left a legacy of some very extensive controller support across Valve’s platform. They may instead use the newer XInput driver, which was created by Microsoft with Xbox controllers in mind. Sony hasn’t produced official PC drivers themselves, and although the DualSense can interface with Windows’ DirectInput driver, a lot of modern games don’t recognise this. As is so often the case with hardware worries, the underlying reason for the PS5 controller’s PC bother is driver software.
