Super easy! Just plug your PS4 controller into your PC using a USB cable, and Steam should recognize it automatically. Make sure you've got Steam's Big Picture Mode activated for the best experience. You can customize your controller settings there too!

I've been using my PS4 controller on Steam for ages. Works like a charm both ways, but if you're going wireless, make sure your PC's Bluetooth is up to snuff. Nothing ruins a game like laggy controller input.

Steam? Just get a proper PC controller. PS4 controllers are too much hassle.

Actually, you can also connect your PS4 controller wirelessly. Just hold the PS and Share buttons on your controller until the light starts flashing. Then, go to your PC's Bluetooth settings and pair it with the 'Wireless Controller'. After that, Steam will pick it up!
