Wondering how to play Genshin Impact on your PC with a PS4 controller? We’ve got you covered with the simplest steps to get you started!

Connecting your PS4 controller to play Genshin Impact on your PC isn’t as tricky as it might seem. Let’s dive into how you can do it and enhance your gaming experience.

Simple Steps to Connect Your PS4 Controller

First, make sure your PC has Bluetooth capability. If it does, press and hold the PS and Share buttons on your PS4 controller until the light bar starts to flash. Next, on your PC, go to Bluetooth settings and add a new device. Your PS4 controller, usually labeled as ‘Wireless Controller’, should appear on the list. Select it, and boom, your controller is now connected!

If your PC doesn’t have Bluetooth, no worries! You can use a micro USB cable to connect your PS4 controller directly to your PC. Just plug it in and most times, Windows will automatically recognize it, letting you jump straight into the action.

Jump Into Genshin Impact with Your PS4 Controller

Now that your PS4 controller is connected, launching Genshin Impact on your PC will let you automatically use the controller for gameplay. The game supports controller input very well, so you’ll have no trouble getting into the heart of the action. Remember, though, to tweak the controller settings within the game if needed to suit your play style.
