1) Update Your Controller Drivers

One step that many PC gamers tend to skip is updating their controllers. While this happens automatically for console players, on PC, you have to manually check and update your controllers every once in a while. If you are using an Xbox controller, you can do so using the Xbox Accessories app. DualSense controller users can update their controllers via the DualSense Firmware Updater app.

2) Try Enabling and Disabling Steam Input

Steam comes with a built-in feature that lets you connect your non-Xbox controllers to your PC as well. Windows officially supports only Xbox controllers, so other controllers, including PS controllers, need to be used via the Steam Input option. If this is not turned on by default, follow these steps:

  • Launch the Steam application on your PC.
  • Click on Steam on the top left side of the app’s UI.
  • Go to the Controller settings.
  • Scroll down and locate the Steam Input option.
  • Enable Steam Input by checking the box beside the option.

However, make sure to keep this option turned off if you are already using an Xbox controller. Since Microsoft officially supports Xbox controllers, keeping this feature turned on can lead to unnecessary compatibility issues.
