How to fix controller not working in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2
While Xbox controller users don’t seem to have any issues with Kingdom Come Deliverance 2, PlayStation, Switch, and other gamepads aren't working for some reason. According to the game's Steam page, it fully supports:
- All Xbox controllers
- DualSense controllers
- DualShock controllers - but only if they are plugged into your PC.
So, if you’re using PlayStation 4 gamepad, you need a wired connection. If it still doesn’t work, the next step is to disable the Steam Input. Here’s how to do it:
- Go to ‘Library’ in your Steam App.
- Right-click on Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 and select ‘Properties’.
- Go to the ‘Controller’ tab and select ‘Disable Steam Input’.
- Relaunch Steam App and open the game.
If you’re still having trouble, some players have reported success by launching the game in Big Picture mode and then turning off the setting.
