Key points
- Controllers can be used wired (via USB-C) or wirelessly with Bluetooth.
- The support for supplementary features like the internal speaker, headphone jack, gyroscope, lightbar, adaptive triggers and haptic feedback varies between models, type of connection, and games/software.
- Supported natively in some games (see support in games).
- Capable of making full use of Steam Input due to many overlapping features with the Steam Controller.
- Lacks native XInput support, requiring the use of a XInput wrapper in games that don't support it.
General information
Inputs
- Motion sensing: 6 axis motion sensing (3 axis accelerometer, 3 axis gyroscope)
- Dual-microphone array
- 2 point capacitive touchpad with click mechanism
- 2 × analog sticks
- 2 × analog triggers: L2, R2
- 13 × digital buttons: △, ○, ×, □, L1, R1, L3, R3, sʜᴀʀᴇ, ᴏᴘᴛɪᴏɴs, PlayStation, ᴛᴏᴜᴄʜᴘᴀᴅ, ᴍɪᴄʀᴏᴘʜᴏɴᴇ
- 4 × digital directional buttons (d-pad): ↑, ↓, ←, →
Use with PC platforms
Windows
- Connecting the controller should automatically download and install latest drivers for the controller.
reWASD
- Supports the DualSense in both wired and wireless modes, does not require installing drivers manually.
- Microphone and PlayStation buttons can be remapped.
- Can emulate the DualShock 4 for PS4 Remote Play, PS Now or other compatible games. Includes gyro and accelerometer control.
- Can also emulate the Xbox 360 controller to play XInput compatible games.
- Adaptive triggers are partially implemented.
- Haptic feedback unimplemented.
- Custom configs can be found in the Community Configs Library.
DualSenseX
- Supports the DualSense in both wired and wireless modes.
- Allows to use the controller's speaker and headset port as separate audio outputs.
- All buttons can be set to emulate keyboard presses.
- Can emulate the DualShock 4 and the Xbox 360 controller.
- Adaptive Triggers are functional and can be switched to various modes. It is also possible to manually set the values.
- The controller can be hidden while emulating a virtual controller through HidHide to avoid double-inputs.
- Working Haptic Feedback.
- Use of Haptic Feedback disables vibration unless disabled within the app.
- Developers are working on Razer Chroma RGB API support for Light bar.[1]
- Gyro is unimplemented.
- Application is not emulating Xbox One controller, so is unable to emulate their Impulse Trigger Vibration.[2]
- Trackpad as mouse input is not implemented yet.[3]
XInput wrapping
As a native DirectInput controller, it's possible to use any of the generic wrappers under the Controller article.
macOS
- Custom application application unlocks full support for DualSense on macOS devices.
DSM
- Requires macOS 11.3 or later.
- Works with both Bluetooth Connection and USB
- Features:
- Menu Bar Icon with Connection Status and Battery Level Information
- View Battery level percentage
- 20 different Trigger Effects you can set for both L2 and R2
- Set the Touchpad into 2 different modes Static Color or Rainbow
- Enable any of the Player LED's below the Touchpad
- Test both Left and Right motors to make sure they're working
- Adjust strength of the motors
- Set the Mic LED into 3 different Modes: ON/OFF/Pulse
- Enable the Speaker/Headset/Mic (USB Only)
- Adjust Speaker/Headset and Mic volume (USB Only)
- Enable Audio Haptics (USB Only)
Linux
- Controller is natively supported since kernel 5.12.
Steam
Steam Input
- Has rumble, trackpad and gyro support. Can also be used wirelessly.[4]
- Supports the adaptive triggers.
Steam Link compatibility
- Wired or wireless works.[5] Press PlayStation+Share to power up and be detected by Steam Link. All buttons are mapped correctly.
- 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.
- Touchpad and gyro will not be pass through to steam when using Steam Link on android.
Support in games
- Games with generic DirectInput support are supported by the controller, however button placements may be out of place and need to be rebound. Refer to game-specific articles for rebinding support.
Adaptive Triggers and Haptic Feedback
- DualSenseSupport demonstrates how the haptics can be used on PC.
- Requires a wired connection.
- DualSenseX Game Demo demonstrates how the Adaptive Triggers can be used on PC, requires DualSenseX to work.
- Works via USB and BT connection
