Why isn’t the PS Controller Detected in Street Fighter 6 (SF6)?
To no one’s surprise, the latest update of Street Fighter Six removed the Duel Sense support in the game. It might be a bug or a temporary blockage for a fix.
No one knows the backstory of why the devs did this, but it is temporary. Due to the same reason, you might be the victim of a PS Controller or Gamepad not working in Street Fighter 6 (SF6).
Then again, it could be that Steam didn’t have the PS Controller input selected. This occurs when you have multiple devices connected to play the game at a time.
It could also be some other reason, but let’s get to fixing them below;
How to Fix Can’t use PS Controller in Street Fighter 6 (SF6) – No Controller Detected Steam
DS4Windows
The first thing we would recommend doing is getting the DS4Windows. It will translate the PS Gamepad into the Xinput, which is for the Xbox Controller.
In this way, the PS Controller will be read as an Xbox Controller, which Windows (Microsoft) officially recognizes.
The software is completely free, and it is an official program, making it safe as well.
Steam
Now, after that, you need to open Steam and go to the Control Settings. In the Input, you need to change the Controller Settings.
If the Playstation Controller Support is selected, you need to untick it.
- Open Steam
- Go to Settings
- Proceed to Controller
- Untick all the options (Specifically the Steam Input for Playstation Controller)
USB and Devices
Just like we already mentioned that sometimes other devices connected to the system or specifically the USB, are the cause of the PS Gamepad not working in Street Fighter 6 (SF6).
Try unplugging and restarting the system with each one so that you know what’s the root cause of trouble here.
The Verdict
Street Fighter 6 Can’t use PS Controller in Street Fighter 6 (SF6) – No Controller Detected Steam is because of the recent update that killed the Dual Shock support in the game temporarily. But it could also be because of some other things like Steam Controller Support; try turning that off. Then try using the DS4Windows to turn your PS Controller or Gamepad into an Xbox Controller. Finally, you can try removing all USBs and Devices and try putting them one by one to find out the issue.
