Fix: Controller Not Working on PC in Ghostwire: Tokyo

Follow these methods to resolve controller issues:

 

 

Method #1: Configure Steam Controller Settings

  • Launch Steam and log in.

 

  • Click “Steam” in the top-left corner of the client.

 

  • Go to Settings > Controller > General Controller Settings.

 

  • Check the box next to your controller type (e.g., PlayStation Configuration Support or Xbox Configuration Support).

 

  • Click OK to save changes.

 

  • Restart Steam and launch the game to test the controller.

 

 

General Troubleshooting Tips

1. Connect the Controller Before Launching the Game

  • Plug in or pair your controller before starting Ghostwire: Tokyo. Avoid connecting it mid-launch.

 

 

2. Check Battery/Power

  • For wireless controllers, ensure batteries are charged. Rechargeable batteries may lose capacity over time—replace if needed.

 

 

3. Test USB Ports/Cables

  • Try different USB ports if using a wired controller. A faulty port/cable may cause disconnections (listen for Windows connection sounds).

 

 

4. Reinstall Controller Drivers

  • Right-click the Windows Start button and open Device Manager.

 

  • Expand Human Interface Devices or Xbox Peripherals.

 

  • Right-click your controller > Uninstall device.

 

  • Restart your PC with the controller plugged in (drivers reinstall automatically).

 

  • Alternatively, download the latest drivers from the manufacturer’s website.

 

 

Method #2: Use Xbox 360 Controller Emulator (x360ce)

  • Download the 64-bit version of x360ce.

 

  • Extract the ZIP file into the Ghostwire: Tokyo installation folder (typically Steam\steamapps\common\Ghostwire Tokyo).

 

  • Run x360ce_x64.exe in the game folder.

 

  • Click Create to generate a configuration file.

 

  • Follow the prompts to auto-detect your controller.

 

  • Go to the Game Settings tab > Click Apply/Synchronize Settings.

 

  • Save the configuration and launch the game.

 

 

Additional Notes

  • Ensure Steam Input is disabled if using third-party emulators like x360ce.

 

  • Verify game files via Steam (Right-click game > Properties > Installed Files > Verify Integrity).

 

  • Run Steam/game as Administrator if permissions are blocking controller access.

 

If issues persist, check for game updates or consult the controller manufacturer’s support.
