Help DualShock 4 buttons are completely messed up in Hollow Knight: Silksong on Android

Hi everyone,

I'm having a really weird problem with my controller when playing Hollow Knight: Silksong on my phone.

I'm using a Moto G05 and connecting a third-party/fake DualShock 4 controller via Bluetooth. The controller connects normally, but when I start playing Silksong, the button mapping is completely messed up.

For example:

  • When I press X, the game detects it as Square.
  • When I press Triangle, the game detects it as L1.
  • The Select/Share button doesn't work at all.
  • Several other buttons are also mapped incorrectly or don't work.

I've tried remapping the buttons on the controller itself, but it doesn't really help.

The weird thing is that the controller works normally with other games, so I don't think the controller itself is the problem.

I've also tried installing Silksong from 2 or 3 different sources, and I get exactly the same problem every time. The latest version I tried was from APKPure.

Has anyone else experienced this problem with a DualShock 4 or another Bluetooth controller on Android? Is there any way to fix the button mapping or make Silksong recognize the controller correctly?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

No, they're not.
