I’ve always been a bit of a control freak. When I first found out I could use my PS4 controller to control my Xbox One, I was shocked to discover the same technology that allowed me to play PS3 games at the same time also allowed me to turn on/off the PS4 controller via the PlayStation TV remote. I have since purchased a PS4 cable controller that gives me the same control as my Xbox One controller.
If your controller has a cable, you can use it to control your PS4. For that, you’ll need to get a PS4 controller with a built-in cable, as the Xbox One controller wont allow you to use the built-in cable.
Once again, to play on one PS4, youll need to have a PS4 controller with a cable, as the Xbox One controller wont allow you to use the built-in cable. But if youre like me and already have a PS4 controller, you can make it work with a PS4-specific cable. The cable will fit into the D-pad, and I was able to use it to play on my PS4 controller, too.
This will only work if your PS4 controller is set to use the PS4 controller cable. If you have a PS4 controller, youll need to find a cable that will work with your PS4 controller.
The Xbox One controller does not have a cable, it has a directional pad.
Also worth noting: the Xbox One X controller will work with the PS4 controller, though you can’t use the PS4 controller with the Xbox One X controller.
This is actually a nice little feature that could actually streamline the process of connecting games to your console at home. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve connected a console to my PC and then needed to move my mouse to find the game I’m looking for, only to realize that I don’t have a cable.
This is a feature that is currently exclusive to the PS4, but it does work with the Xbox One X controller. If you are connected to the PS4 via a PS4 dongle, you can use the Xbox One X controller to navigate the menus, but the console has support for the PS4 controller. The Xbox One X controller will work with the PS4 controller on the Xbox One X.
I love that the PS4 console can do both the controller and mouse simultaneously. If you are playing a game with two controllers, you can switch between them while you play, and the controller will still work on the console. If you are playing a game where you have to use both of your controllers at the same time, you can turn off the Xbox One X controller, which will also disable the PS4 controller, making your job easier.
You can use the Xbox One X controller with the PS4 controller on the Xbox One X, or you can use the PS4 controller with the Xbox One X controller. You can’t use the Xbox One X controller with a PlayStation 4 controller of course, but you can use a PS4 controller with the Xbox One X controller.
