Hooking up a PS5 controller to GTA 5 on PC is pretty straightforward! Just connect your PS5 controller to your PC using a USB cable or through Bluetooth. Windows should recognize it right off the bat. Once connected, GTA 5 usually picks up on it without a hitch. You might want to tweak settings in-game for the best experience, but it's plug-and-play for the most part.
Honestly, just stick to keyboard and mouse for GTA 5 on PC. It's way more precise for aiming and driving.
Pro tip: Make sure your PS5 controller's firmware is up to date. Sometimes, connectivity issues to PCs are just outdated firmware. Connect it to your PS5 and check for updates first!
