Steam

Can be recognized as Xbox 360 controller but after manual reassignment. Controller cannot be found in Supported Controller Database, so Steam recognizes it as standard DirectInput device.
Not capable of making full use of Steam Input. LED lights are not configurable and additional buttons are not visible in configuration menu.

Steam Link Application compatibility

Works without any drivers on any operating system that supports Steam.[2]
Can be used just to send input from a controller to a PC. Go into Streaming options, hit 𝗬 and disable video and audio streaming.
Won't work great unless the streaming device is connected to LAN or a low latency Wi-Fi.

Support in games

PC games that support the XInput standard are supported.
