Lost Ark: How to play with PlayStation and Xbox controllers

While the majority of Lost Ark players will be playing using a keyboard and mouse, there is a substantial community of ARPG gamers who prefer to play with a controller while tackling action-packed combat and scary boss fights. If you're one of these devoted pad players, you might be wondering if Lost Ark supports controllers. Also, how do you set up a controller if it does?

This tutorial will show you what controllers are supported in Lost Ark and how to set them up so you can play the game the way you choose.

Does Lost Ark have controller support?

Lost Ark works with both Xbox and PlayStation controllers, though all of the controller notation in the game is Xbox-centric, so DuelSense fans may have to get accustomed to that. The Xbox One and Series X/S controllers, as well as the PS4 and PS5 controllers, are all supported. They should also function if you have a third-party controller for either Xbox or PlayStation.

How to play Lost Ark with a controller?

When playing Raiders of the Lost Ark, the controller should begin operating as soon as you put in your preferred controller. If it doesn't work right away, you might have to experiment with various in-game options to allow controller functionality.

Follow these steps to accomplish this:

• Open up the settings menu in Lost Ark
• Navigate to the Gamepad interface menu
• Tick the Use Gamepad box

The majority of players should be able to use controllers in Lost Ark as a result of this. If you're still having trouble after checking that box, it's possible that your Steam settings are to blame. To correct this, it's time to explore new options!

• First head to your Steam settings
• Click on the controller tab
• Click on the general controller settings option

Check that your controller settings match what you're using. Make sure the PlayStation controller box is checked if you have a PlayStation controller.
