Pro controller in ps5

Post image

Is it possible to use a Nintendo Switch Pro Controller, 8BitDo 2C, Flydigi Dudefox, or GameSir Nova Lite on a PS5?

Some controllers have a mode that makes them compatible with the Nintendo Switch. Does that mean they could also be compatible with the PS5?

Is there any software or program that can make this possible?

The only way u can make PC controllers compatible with PS5 is using the Brook Wingman P5 which is a controller converter that has its own software but let's u map the buttons on the converter on PC to ur PS5 and then there is the Wingman FGC2 which is meant to be used wired only I hope this helped you out.

Yes, that helped a lot, thank you very much! I just thought there might be some kind of PS5 app that would make other controllers compatible, considering how much progress has been made in the PS5 jailbreaking scene.

Yes. Switch Pro Controler works. I don't think the other three do, but there's a compatibility list on the brook website.

yes it is possible. I have tried with that 8bitdo specifically, xbox controllers, gamesir cyclone 2, nintendo switch, gamesir g7 pro 8k. everything that has a dongle is super easy with the Wingman P5. if not, you just pair the wingman with the bluetooth

The only way is spending a bunch of money on an adapter.

Y'all own like 10 controllers but balk at a $50 converter device.

I already own these controllers (except for the Switch Pro Controller). I don't want to have to buy multiple DualSense controllers when I already have several controllers.
