How to Fix Controller not Working in Space Marine 2
If you were surprised by not working controller in WH40k Space Marine 2, here you will find some simple methods that can help you fix it.
Even though the official release date of Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 has not arrived yet, some fans who bought Gold or Ultra edition of the game can already enjoy it. Truth to be told, not everyone is able to fully cherish this production because, as expected, servers didn’t withstand the influx of players. Despite warm reception (via Steam and metacritic), there are typical issues with crashes, fps drops, and black screens (which isn’t actually a bug). Adding to the list of problems, some fans complain about not working controllers. Fortunately, there is a way to quickly solve this inconvenience, and you are in the best place to learn how.
Fix for not working controller in WH40K Space Marine 2
There is a lot that we can say about technical state of Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2, like the lack of HDR and RT, or features in work consisting of ultrawide support or Steam Deck compatibility. One of the most pressing issues, however, seems to be the inability to use a controller in some specific instances. There are several methods that you can try, depending on the device that you use:
- In case you use PS5 gamepad (DualSense), make sure that it’s plugged in to your computer. In many cases this controller requires wired connection to function properly when used on PC.
- For all other controllers, you should check your Steam Input settings. SM2 might require turning it off to work as intended.
It is worth noting that if you are using Remote Play or Steam Link option this fix is not feasible, as it requires Steam Input to be enabled.
- Some fans state that running the WH40k in Steam’s Big Picture mode makes it possible to use their gamepad. It is also an option worth trying.
- The last solution that you can try is to turn on / plug in your controller after the title has launched.
Hopefully the tips included here will help you enjoy the game using your favorite device. With it working correctly, make sure to look for curiosities like Dataslates. Of course, having your friends to help you will make it a whole lot easier. Have fun!
