Key points
- Uses standard Bluetooth for wireless communication.
- Even though lacking XInput, some games do offer native support for the controller without any extra software necessary.
Windows
- The controller works natively as a DirectInput controller; use DS4Windows to add XInput compatibility.
- You may want to enable the option "Hide DS4 Controller" so that some games don't detect two controllers at once, as well as "Start Minimized".
Using wirelessly
- Works same way with both wired and wireless modes and uses standard bluetooth for wireless mode.
