Are you a PS4 player who’s been dying to try out Dark Souls? Well, you’re in luck! Here’s a quick guide on how to play Dark Souls with a PS4 controller.

First, you’ll need to make sure your PS4 controller is connected to your PS4 console. If it’s not, connect it now.

Once your controller is connected, go to Dark Souls’ title screen and press the “Start” button. From there, select “Options” and then “Controller Type.” Choose “PS4 Controller” from the list of options.

Now that you’ve selected the PS4 controller option, you can begin playing Dark Souls! Just remember, this game is notoriously difficult, so don’t get too frustrated if you die a lot. Good luck!

Dark Souls PS4 controller and spinning camera

If you’re like me, you love Dark Souls. But one thing that can be annoying is the camera. It has a tendency to spin around, making it hard to keep track of what’s going on.

One way to combat this is to use a PS4 controller. The left joystick will control the camera, making it much easier to keep track of the action.

Of course, you can also use the right joystick to control the camera, but I find that the left joystick is much more natural and easy to use.

So if you’re struggling with the camera in Dark Souls, give the PS4 controller a try. It might just make the game a lot more enjoyable for you.

 

How do I play Dark Souls with a controller?

Assuming you would like a blog discussing how to play Dark Souls with a controller on a PC, here are a few tips: 

First, you’ll need to make sure your controller is compatible with your PC. Xbox 360 and Xbox One controllers are typically plug-and-play, but you may need to install drivers for other types of controllers. 

Once your controller is all set-up, open up Dark Souls and go to Options. In the options menu, go to the button configuration section and set the game up to your liking. I recommend using a controller layout that is similar to the one you would use for playing an Xbox game, as that is what I am most familiar with. 

Once you have your controller configured, it’s time to get into the game! Start off by picking your class and gift, and then you’re ready to start your journey through Lordran. The game can be quite challenging, but don’t get discouraged. Take your time, learn the patterns of the enemies, and most importantly, have fun!
