    So for a bit of backstory, I recently bought a PS5 Controller to replace my aging Xbox One controller for use on my PC.
    No problem with any other game on any platform, Steam, GOG, UPlay, etc.

    Boot up Back4Blood on gamepass for PC though, I can see that the game recognizes my controller, but-

    No response in the game at all, despite it being DETECTED by the game.
    Okay, maybe it's just a bug I say; I get DS4 for windows and see if it works as a Dualshock 4.
    Nope, can't use that one either.
    Let's try spoofing it as a 360 controller?

    It works!
    But I shouldn't have to spoof it as an Xbox controller for it to work.
    This is Gamepass for PC, not Xbox. If I can use a PS5 Controller on my phone to stream gamepass games, I should be able to use it on here, too.
    Don't do me dirty because I wanted to try something new.

    Xbox Game Pass on PC - client

    they won't change it, also some of the supposedly pc games on offer in gamepass are actually just xvd images of actual modified xbox one games made to run via pc.

    Xbox Series S|X controller just blinking via USB

    you can share all pc gamepass games within the home on multiple pc's too, i do this for my kids all the time with their own accounts, you have been able to share pc gamepass games since the beginning same as all apps and games purchased within the store.

    It is actually better than console as i can share on 5 gaming pc's without any issues.

    Unable to use a Sony Dualshock 4 Controller for Cloud Gaming.

    It would only work As a gamepad not dual shock

    Sony doesn't make.drivers for pc only.thr steam ones

    You need a Windows compatible controller

    There are beta drivers if you look on google but without offical sony support you won't have the full functions

    Xbox gamepass ultimate need windows to recognize it

    If it runs as a gamepad the analog sticks will probably not work

    You can always attach it to your phone just won't have full functjonz

    Why must i pay again for owned games

    Are you currently still owning the gamepass?

    It might be, that it will tell you to buy it because as you set it is recognized as gamepass game but it might change to normal after your gamepass membership runs out.

    If have the same problem with Gears 5.
