The easiest and most common way to connect a PlayStation 4 controller to a PC is by using Bluetooth. To do that, you will first need to make sure that your PC has Bluetooth enabled and that both it and the controller are relatively close to each other, after which point you’ll simply put the DualShock into pairing mode and pair it with the PC.
- Click the Start menu.
- Type Bluetooth in the search field.
- Click Bluetooth and other devices in the search results.
- Toggle on the switch next to Bluetooth.
- Press and hold both the Share and PS buttons on the PS4 controller to enter the blinking pairing mode
- Click Add Bluetooth or other device.
- Select the Bluetooth category.
- Select the option that says DualShock 4 controller.
- Wait for the controller’s blinking light bar to turn solid, indicating that it has paired with the PC.
While this is certainly simple, connecting a PS4 controller over Bluetooth often results in input lag and disconnects, which may become quite a problem if you are playing a video game that requires reflexes and quick thinking. Nobody likes when their controller gets erratic in the middle of a boss fight, right? However, for games that are a bit slower paced and having responsive or constant feedback isn’t a necessity, connecting a PS4 controller via Bluetooth is direct and easy. Luckily, there are other options as well if Bluetooth isn’t available.
