Connect PS4 Controller to Wuthering Waves Mobile
Issue: No Controller Support at Launch
Many players are frustrated because Wuthering Waves does not support controllers on mobile devices at launch. Despite connecting PS4 controllers to mobile devices like iPads via Bluetooth, the game only offers mobile joystick options, making it difficult to play.
Understanding the Problem
Lack of Controller Recognition
Even after successfully connecting controllers via Bluetooth, the game doesn't recognize them. This issue is reported across various devices and controller types.
Example:
I have connected my PS4 controller to my iPad via Bluetooth, but for some reason, I cannot select the controller as the controls.
Reports from Other Users
- Players on iOS and Android face similar issues.
- No controller support for mobile at launch is confirmed by multiple users.
- Some users note performance issues and crashes in addition to controller problems.
Example:
Backbone on android doesn't work either. Gargantuan L honestly.
Possible Solutions
Solution 1: Use Wired Connections
Try using a wired connection instead of Bluetooth. Some users report success with wired connections where Bluetooth fails.
Example:
PS5 controller works just fine with me on a wired connection, can't test Bluetooth because for some reason it won't connect.
Solution 2: Third-Party Software
For PC players, using third-party software like DS4 can help make controllers work. This might be a temporary solution for mobile users if similar apps exist.
Example:
I have installed DS4 on my computer and now I can use my PS4 controller. For those who want to use it :)
Solution 3: Wait for Official Support
Keep an eye on updates from the game developers. Controller support might be added in future patches.
Example:
They tweeted that controller is not yet supported on mobile!
