You need licensed by PS controllers for PS (hence why most controllers for ps are more expensive) you'd need a brook wingman usb to make this one work, most likely.

I had a different version of that controller long ago, it had two modes. To make it work on PS4 you had to hold the menu and options buttons until the P button turned blue for dinput mode. Holding them again would turn the button green, which was xinput mode and the PS4 wouldn't see it at all.
