How To Use Ps5 Controller on PC;Complete Guide

1.Connect the PS5 controller to the PC by cable

With the PS5 DualSense the procedure is very similar to that of the Xbox controller with the difference that with the PlayStation 5 controller we can only play titles that we have on Steam , whether they are sold in the Valve store or we have it added as a game from third parties (something that we will explain later in this guide). The reason for this is that Windows 10 as such does not yet have support for DualSense but the Steam program does, so we can use it with all the games that we run through the Valve application.

To use the wired controller it will be as simple as connecting the controller with a USB-C cable to our computer, wait a few seconds and start the game we want to use on Steam.

Connect the PS5 controller to the PC via Bluetooth

In the event that we want to use it wirelessly, the procedure is as follows:

  • Activate the Bluetooth pairing of the DualSenseby pressing the Share and PlayStation buttons at the same time for a few seconds until the light on the controller starts to flash.
  • While the DualSense light is flashing, on your PC go to Startand Settings (the gear button).
  • Here we click on Devices.
  • We click on Add Bluetoothor another device.
  • We click on Bluetooth.
  • After a few seconds the Wireless Controllerdevice will appear .
  • Click on it and we see how it will synchronize after a few seconds.

As before, now we can start the game we want on Steam and use the DualSense.

How to use DualSense on Steam

Most players have their own library on  Steam . On this client, you can use DualSense by following this procedure:

  1. Click on Steam and go to  Settings ;
  2. Go to  Controller ;
  3. Go to  General Settings ;
  4. At this point, connect your DualSense with Bluetooth or using the controller USB cable;
  5. Now that you are done, Steam will detect a new controller. Normally it will ask you to proceed with the configuration, otherwise click on the new device detected in this screen.
  6. Set the buttons as you like.
  7. Save your controller settings and give it any name you like.
  8. Go to Controller Settings .
  9. Check  Generic Gamepad Support and  PlayStation Configuration Support .
  10. Done!
