PlayStation 4 gamers sometimes have difficulties when adjusting to PC games. DS4Windows makes up for a perfect transition between the two mediums.

Best controller of the generation now on Windows

Bring your best gaming skills from the PS4 to your computer without missing a beat

Replacing your console with a PC now and then can lead to some exciting video game experiences. Some games are best enjoyed on computers, while others should only be played on a console. However, adjusting from a joystick to a keyboard is a struggle that takes out some of the fun of gaming. PlayStation 4 enthusiasts can make the transition a smooth one by installing DS4Windows. All you need is a DualShock 4 controller, and a port to connect it to the PC or laptop. You pc is connected via a Bluetooth connection, or a cable plugged into a USB port.

This software translates the commands of your PlayStation 4 into an input your computer understands. This software is also easy to use; after you download and install the program, just run it and begin gaming without a mouse and keyboard. If you didn’t have the opportunity to set up the PS4 drivers on your computer, this software would lead you through the installation process as well.

This software has a unique feature of assigning customized controls. You can store these special commands on one profile and only use it for specific games to make playing easier. Moving your fingers across the touchpad is comparable to moving the cursor on the computer. This program is also updated regularly, and these updates tackle issues such as your desktop not responding to Bluetooth signals.

Where can you run this program?

This program runs on Windows. It has compatibility issues with the latest OS but works well on older OS. You must have a PlayStation 4 controller to run this application.

Is there a better alternative?

No. DS4Windows was designed to allow PS4 products to communicate with Windows OS translation. Constant updates that deal with issues specific to that OS and that joystick give the software an advantage over similar products such as Keystick.

Our take

DS4Windows is easy to use and serves its purpose. The chief goal of the app is to play games on your PC/laptop while using a PS4 controller, and the software allows you to do that.

Should you download it?

Yes, this is the software that enables you to have a smooth transition from PS4 gaming to PC gaming. All you need is a PS4 controller.
