How to connect PS5 DualSense Controller to PC?
The PlayStation 5 is impressive, and not just because of its processing power and graphical capabilities. The DualSense represents a huge leap forward for Sony controllers, as it carries a terrific feel and numerous new features. And now, thanks to a Steam update, you can use it to play PC games.
The DualSense’s PC compatibility isn’t perfect. Many features, including haptic feedback and adaptive triggers, don’t translate to PC games. Still, the DualSense controller is a great-feeling gamepad that lets you play Cyberpunk 2077 and other PC games with ease.
Unfortunately, Steam is currently the only simple, somewhat direct way to use the DualSense on your PC. Without a comprehensive input wrapper program, like DS4Windows for the DualShock 4, you’re limited to Steam games. If that’s not a problem, read on to learn how to connect your DualSense controller to your PC.
Pair the DualSense Controller With Your PC
- Open the system tray in the lower-right corner of the screen (the upward-pointing arrow to the left of the time).
- Double-click the Bluetooth icon.
- Click “Add Bluetooth or Other Device.”
- Click “Bluetooth.”
- Put the DualSense into pairing mode by pressing and holding the PlayStation and Share buttons until the lights flash blue (they are the PlayStation logo and the small button to the left of the trackpad with the \|/ symbol).
- Select “Wireless Controller.”
Now the DualSense is paired with your PC. You can, of course, connect the controller to your PC using a USB cable.
