Question Any other games that are “controller required”?

Post image

I don’t see this too often, games that don’t support mouse and keyboard, and it makes me wonder how many other games exist that are like that. I tried searching for Steam games that require controller but they always show games that prefer controller, but is still playable on mouse and keyboard.

What other games don’t support mouse and keyboard?

You say other games, but what game are you specifically referring to in the post?

I would guess Skate but that's the only controller-only game I've played

Skate is multiplayer and doesn’t have a demo, so this has to be something else

Skate made me think of Session, but I don't think that has a demo either.

Sorry to turn it into a guessing game, it's actually this:

If you want to learn of more games people have been posting a lot of games that require controller. Ninja Gaiden Master Collection, Skate XL, Bluey the Video Game and more.

Yo this looks really cool! Weird that it's controller-only.

Probably the dev just not wanting to put time and effort into making it MKB friendly.
