    Hi Lunah Dawn Fournier

    Greetings!

    Thank you for publishing in Microsoft Community.

    We understand that you need help with the Minecraft game on your PC that you want to play it using a contorller. I'd be happy to assist you with your concern.



    To use a controller on your PC when playing Minecraft, you will need to follow these steps:



    1. Connect your controller to your PC using a USB cable or Bluetooth connection. If you're using a wired controller, simply plug it into an available USB port on your computer. If you're using a wireless controller, make sure it's paired with your PC via Bluetooth.



    2. Launch Minecraft on your PC and navigate to the "Options" menu.



    3. Click on "Controls" and then select "Controller" from the drop-down menu.



    4. You should now see a list of all the available controller buttons and their corresponding actions in Minecraft. You can customize these controls to your liking by clicking on each button and selecting a new action from the drop-down menu.



    5. Once you've customized your controller settings, click "Done" to save your changes.



    That's it! You should now be able to use your controller to play Minecraft on your PC. If you encounter any issues or have any further questions, please don't hesitate to reach out to us again.

    Xbox one controller

    If i put in my Xbox controller in Fifa it shows 2 controllers how do i fix it?
    Are you for sure playing on an Xbox or are you using an Xbox controller on a PC? I researched this issue and could only find it being reported on PC versions of the game.

    Can I play PC games with Xbox wireless receiver?

    Hi,

    I'm PC and console gamer. I built my own gaming PC.

    Most single player games on my PC I use a controller to play which either my Series X|S controller or my Xbox One controller. Most PC games have controller support from Steam, Epic Games and Origin. There's nothing to configure, just plug and play.

    The only games I don't play with controllers are strategy titles such as the Total War titles and Civilization.

    Is that what you're asking?
