    Hey there. 

    If you're still having any trouble using your Xbox controller to play on PC, can you try repairing Apex Legends in Origin to see if that helps at all? 

    If you right-click on the game in your Origin Library you'll see a Repair option when the menu comes up. Let me know how it goes when you've got the chance.

    Hi @1roneye

    When you have the chance can you try starting up your PC in a Clean Boot to see if that helps at all? If there's anything else running on the PC that could be causing the controller issues that might help get around it. 

    For more details on how to set one up check out the EA Help website. Let me know how that goes once you've had a chance to try it out. Thanks!

    Hey @COMMANDO1732

    Did you have the chance to try setting up a Clean Boot on your PC to see if that helps? Is the game still not recognizing your controller?

  • It’s working fine with my 8bitdo USB wireless control adapter. If you guys can find one hope it helps out.
