Like those other DS4 tools, but sexier.
DS4Windows is an extract anywhere program that allows you to get the best DualShock 4 experience on your PC. By emulating an Xbox 360 controller, many more games are accessible. Other input controllers are also supported including the DualSense, Switch Pro, and JoyCon controllers (first party hardware only).
This project is a fork of the work of Jays2Kings. You can find the old project website at ds4windows.com. Note: The Website Is No Longer Working
- Windows 10 or newer (Thanks Microsoft)
- Microsoft .NET 6.0 Runtime Desktop. x64 or x86
- Visual C++ 2015-2022 Redistributable. x64 or x86
- ViGEmBus driver (DS4Windows will install it for you)
- Sony DualShock 4 or other supported controller
- Connection method:
- Micro USB cable
- Sony Wireless Adapter
- Bluetooth 4.0 (via an adapter like this or built in pc). Only use of Microsoft BT stack is supported. CSR BT stack is confirmed to not work with the DS4 even though some CSR adapters work fine using Microsoft BT stack. Toshiba's adapters currently do not work. Disabling 'Enable output data' in the controller profile settings might help with latency issues, but will disable lightbar and rumble support.
- Disable PlayStation Configuration Support and Xbox Configuration Support options in Steam

My PC game library is not that expansive so there are likely games that will be tested by users that I will not have access to play. There are likely going to be times when I cannot directly test against a game since I will not have access to play it. Most free to play games or games that include a playable demo should be fine for testing. For other games, it might be better if people could test against any game that I have in my library and try to reproduce a problem.
If you would like to send some coin my way, here are some means by which to do so.
