Key points
- Main difference between the Dualshock 1 and 2 controllers is that the face buttons are pressure sensitive on the Dualshock 2.
- Requires adapter to connect to PC. Not every USB adapter supports pressure sensitive buttons.
- Lacks native XInput support, requiring the use of a XInput wrapper (see Windows) for games that do not support DirectInput or the controller natively.
- PS2 emulators for PC support pressure sensitive buttons. DualShock 2 support is still in progress.
Inputs
- 2 × analog sticks (8-bit precision)
- 8 × pressure-sensitive buttons: △, ○, ×, □, L1, R1, L2, R2
- 4 × pressure-sensitive directional buttons (d-pad): ↑, ↓, ←, →
- 5 × digital buttons: L3, R3, sᴛᴀʀᴛ, sᴇʟᴇᴄᴛ, ᴀɴᴀʟᴏɢ
Controller variations
- The Analog Controller (SCPH-10520) is a variant of the DualShock 2 controller, lacking force feedback.
Use with PC platforms
Windows
XInput wrapping
- Acting as native DirectInput controller, it's possible to use any of the generic wrappers. See the controller article for those.

Steam
- Can be recognized as Xbox 360 controller but after manual assignment. Controller cannot be found in Supported Controller Database, so Steam recognizes it as standard DirectInput device.
Steam Link compatibility
- Works natively over Mayflash PS2 Controller Adapter.[1]
- Buttons are mapped incorrectly and must be remapped manually.
- Works without any drivers on any operating system that supports Steam.
- Can be used just to send input from a controller to a PC. Go into Streaming options, hit △ and disable video and audio streaming.
- Won't work great unless you connect it to LAN or a low latency Wi-Fi.
Hardware
Bliss-Box Gamer-Pro
- Directly compatible with PC. No driver needed, just plug and play. It’s ready to use right out of the box, no special software required with the exception of firmware updates.
- Supports pressure sensitive face buttons.
- Supports vibration (Rumble/Force Feedback).
- Hot swapping capabilities. Auto-pause if controller is disconnected.
- Easily upgradable via firmware update.
- Future proof /expandable (all that is required is a new cable and a firmware update).

Pressure Sensitive Face Buttons
For a list of games, see List of games that support Pressure-Sensitive Face Buttons.
- Pressure-sensitive face buttons are not recognized by PC games yet.
- PlayStation emulators like PCSX2, RPCS3 and Cxbx-Reloaded do not recognize pressure-sensitive face buttons from DualShock 2 yet. Controller will require DualShock 3 emulation to be recognized.
Games with DualShock button prompts
- Please note, that this is only list for games that offer DualShock button prompts.
- Some may require use of DualShock 4 emulation. Refer to game-specific articles for details.
