PC BF5 CONNETING PS4 CONTROLLER

how do you connect a ps4 controller in order to play battlefield 5 on origins

Hey @Jaspermas,

You need to download a Program called "DS4Windows" in order to use your PS4 Controller on PC via USB.

You can download it here: http://ds4windows.com/

Once it's downloaded, you will need to open the program, and plug in your PS4 Controller.

Hope this helps.

Thanks

In order to use a PS4 controller on PC you also need the PS4 controller wireless dongle; you can't just plug it into the USB and have it work like it does for the PC Xbox Controller. After that I'm unsure of the steps, some games recognize it and others make you assign button functions.

Want to know how I fixed this? Its really stupid, and really just shows how lazy EA's origin is.

I added Origin to steam as a game, started steam in big picture mode, used that to start Origin, and then if I start a game from Origin PS4 controller works no problem.

@gabasahbi,

Yes, I have used it a lot, until I started using an Xbox Elite Controller.
