XBOX GAME PASS (PC) - Controller issue

You can play on Xbox Family console and you can use your controller. But i think the game launch on PC too with the Xbox Game Pass PC.

It's pretty much in the title. Game Pass games only work with Xbox One controllers but I would really like to sometimes use a PS4 controller or maybe 8Bitdo SNES controller (I don't know how third party wheel or flight controller support is but I am betting
it's not the best either). but you need to use workaround software that emulates Xinput devices.

this has been a feature on steam for a long time and you can even load custom profiles per game. it's a really necessary feature for PC games especially the broad genres featured on Game Pass.

There are a lot of features and fixes still needed on Game Pass PC but this is a really big one that needs to be addressed. I'm sure this is not a difficult issue to solve since games that do support many controllers on steam don't on the Game Pass versions.

Hi, I hope you're doing great out there despite the issue that you're experiencing. I am an Independent advisor and I am here to help you in regards to your concern.

The subscription that you have will not affect the games that you will be able to access. If the game is available for Xbox console only it will not be available for PC.

The only difference is that the Xbox Game Pass Ultimate is consist of Xbox Live Gold, Xbox Game Pass for Console, PC Game Pass, EA play both on PC and Xbox.

The Xbox Game Pass Ultimate will let you play console games as well if they’re included on cloud gaming. You need to be on a supported region and have a compatible controller to use cloud gaming.

Thank you for the information.

Upon further checking, to answer your inquiry from one of the answers in the forums regarding the issue with the Xbox game pass and PS4 controller:

"as the windows system does not natively support the ps4/5 controller you have to use ds4 which is a program that basically disguises the ps4 controller as an xbox controller, some games in gamepass work, some don't, i have a ps4 controller and have used it for all games on every store except gamepass."

It seems Xbox game pass does not support 3rd party system.
