Restart PC

Before anything else, try restarting your PC and relaunch Steam. This can sometimes fix minor issues that may cause your controller to stop working. You can go for a quick restart or make a full shutdown of your PC and let it sit for a while. After booting up your PC again, launch Dynasty Warriors Origins on Steam and see if the problem has been fixed.

Update Controller Drivers

Sometimes, controllers stop working properly if their drivers are not updated to the latest version. You can fix this through the Xbox Accessories app or the PlayStation DualSense Firmware Updater app. Always keep your drivers updated to prevent issues on your controllers in Dynasty Warriors Origins.

Check Steam Input

You can also try and check if there are any issues with Steam Input for your controller. Here is how you can do it:

  • Launch Steam
  • Click the Steam Logo at the top left of the launcher
  • Head navigate to the settings menu
  • Select the Controller section
  • Try to toggle Steam Input for your controller on and off

Steam Input is turned off by default. However, if you have been using a controller for a while now, it should be toggled on so you can keep using an external gamepad when playing games.
