Even nearly four years after its release, COD Mobile remains one of the most popular mobile games on the market. It has surpassed over 700 million downloads and is still receiving new seasonal updates every month.
The content coming to the game has never been more plentiful, and this has resulted in a loyal and growing player base. A part of that growing player base is users that don’t have much experience with mobile games in general. As a result, these players might not be used to the controls that COD Mobile implements. While players can always learn the mobile controls, some are asking if COD Mobile can be played with a PS4 controller.
The PS4 controller is arguably the most popular modern controller, as the PS4 was wildly successful and is still played today in 2023. Players have grown attached to it over the years and don’t want to use another input device.
Playing COD Mobile with a PS4 controller
In 2023, COD Mobile players are fully able to use several different controllers, including the PS4 Dualshock. Players can also use the Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PS5 controllers. The only exception in this regard is players are unable to use the first-generation iteration of the PS4 Dualshock controller.
To get your PS4 controller up and running in COD Mobile, you can follow the steps below:
- Hold down the Share and PS buttons at the same time
- Turn on the mobile device’s Bluetooth setting
- Find the “wireless controller” option when the Bluetooth is searching for a compatible device
- Connect the wireless controller with the Bluetooth
- Open the COD Mobile application and go to the “Controller settings” tab
- Press “Enable Controller support” in the settings
Once you have enabled your controller in COD Mobile, you can use it just as you would on your console.
