I watched a lot of demonstrations using XBOX controller. Does the EA stage support PS5 DualSense controller? Also, are there any plans for cross-platform archiving in the future?

Man, according to informations console release of this game will be at 1.0 so in a year or so, many things can happen till then.

The steam page for the game says that PS controllers are supported, alongside Xbox controllers. So safe to assume PS5 should work during early access.

I’d hazard a guess that both Xbox & PS5 controllers will be compatible during Early Access. I’d be surprised if heptic feedback is implemented right away though, as not many games on PC make full use of it. The combat in this game looks like it’d feel awesome with it though! Fingers crossed it’ll come in the future.

No offence to the console players but I’m old school (well, old) and always hope a game is optimised to work well with kb and mouse. Happy for you if it works well on controller too, but many conversions from console don’t seem to care if my play style works well. It sounds selfish but I just can’t use a controller to save my life! Guess I shouldn’t have bought that Steam Deck

I asked a similar question to this in Discord and Mikey replied with this.
I always have button prompt issues with my DS4 while gaming in windows so I had to ask.
Seems at least they are aware of the compatibility being lackluster in modern games.

I always thought controller is a inferior way of playing. When i have playstation back in the day i always liked more m&k, dont understand the focus on gamepads i understand console players only have gamepads to choose from but when the game is released on PC it should have m&k support on same level quality as gamepad.

Partial controller support is claimed, even the developers recommend playing this game with a controller. Dualsense and Dualchock are listed in the tags (steam db).
Partial support may vary, there may be no support in the menu or in big picture mode. Let’s not think about the bad stuff. By the way, due to circumstances I have fairly simple controllers and they are usually compatible with both the cloud service and games that support official xbox gamepads at all.
I will also say that it should be so that when using keyboard+mouse you can reassign any buttons, including side buttons, and no closed binds. Because there are games that either partially change not all options, or I can’t put one of the side mouse buttons for map view for example.
Hopefully the game will end up being generally satisfying for everyone, with both keyboard and full controller support, from starting up, being in menus, and the whole combat palette.

My deck has been relegated to CYOA’s and jrpgs, lol. For everything else, I play for about 6 minutes on the deck, and then get frustrated with UI and want to be able to click it, dammit.

I’m using a PS5 controller and I understand the xbox quick tips but it would be awesome if I had been asked what kind of controller I was using and the suggestions auto adjust.

First thing, here are my basic laptop specs,
CPU: 11th Gen Intel(R) Core™ i5-11400H @ 2.70GHz
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 Ti Laptop GPU (4GB VRAM)
RAM: 16 GB
Using this specs, do try to make it run well on this type of system.
Second thing is, the controller. I have a PS5 DualSense controller and I’d like this game to have full support of it, including changing the in-game button prompt from Xbox to PS.
That’s all I have for now. Will try to add more if I find any issues.

Says fully supports PlayStation DualSense yet shows Xbox icons - fix.

Second this! It’s beyond me how new games like this decides not to support DirectInput, especially when the PS5 has dominated the console market this generation; It’s the controller most people have!
This game needs native DS4/5 support!

I’m having the same problem here.
I would love the same thing for Playstation Button Prompt instead of the XBOX one.
Keep the good work.

I am using a dual shock ps4 controller playing through Steam. The game gives prompts for me to press Xbox buttons. I tried for over an hour to configure this correctly.
Tried to disable Steam input from the general tab, tried to disable it for the game specifically, one of two things happens. Either it recognizes my controller as an xbox controller, or the game only allows me to use a keyboard mouse.
Walkin away. If this thread gets responses that can fix the issue, I’ll try it out… but the discord people are saying this is just a thing that we have to get used to.
Dude. I’ve played PS since 1996. Prior to that, I mapped super nintendo ABXY. I’m not going to learn how to map my brain to xbox controller inputs. Colossally frustrating.
If I thought I could get anywhere with it, I’d ask for a refund, cuz this has been the biggest letdown for a game in decades.

Thirded.
And dude… What gets me is the game has been released on PlayStation. So it’s not like the assets aren’t there. Connect the dots dude, what a huge let down. 2024 and I am spending over an hour trying to get a controller configured… Come on…

Is there a plan to address this:
â—Ź Controls - Current UI will only display Xbox buttons for controller bindings. Keyboard and mouse will show correct bindings. (updated)
?
Bought the game and this feature makes a game literally unplayable for me. I’m happy to wait, if someone from the team at LEAST says they’re going to address this. Game looks good, but after a night of trying to figure this out, I am at my wits end.
