Keyboard and mouse on consoles
Does the game have native support on PS5 for keyboard and mouse ?
Forum Discussion
Crossplay is available so please allow native mouse and keyboard support too. Put us in different lobby with PC players. Playing FPS games with a controller is really hard for many people. having to fight against my controls really makes it hard to enjoy the game. Call of duty has it and nobody had problems. Please consider.
EA mentioned battlefield 2042 was unfair to support keyboard and mouse on console. What the meaning unfair. They dont cross play with pc player. Pc player also using keyboard and mouse.
Pls allows console player to use keyboard and mouse. Just not allowed the aim assist for the player switch controller to keyboard and mouse.
[edited topic title as "2043" was mentioned]
>> It won't be supported at launch, but they still investigating the options they have to make it available.
See official statement below regarding this topic:

MW2 Beta has been flawless with MnK integration. Groundwar is very Battlefield wanna-be mode, that apart for the missing environment destruction, it reminded me a lot of BF4 and BF2042. Mechanics are very simmilar too...
BR2042 has its days counted for real now
Hi @Gendash28 EA haven't outright said they think supporting native mouse and keyboard is unfair, in fact they've said they'll be investigating "the various options about making that available, and how it may impact cross-play" (https://answers.ea.com/t5/Battlefield-Announcements/Battlefield-s-Commitment-to-Positive-Play/td-p/10690725).
While there's no guarantee that it'll be added down the line it could well be at some point in the future.Edit: Travis is a faster typer than I am 😆
@ElliotLH Oops 👿😛
Lol, that happens to all of us, when start typing as there is no answer yet and as you post it and page refreshes there are actually comments already.

- @Its_Travis_199 Very true lol.
Console - Mouse & Keyboard Support
We’ve heard your questions about mouse and keyboard support for consoles. We can confirm that we won’t be supporting this on consoles at the launch of Battlefield 2042, but we are still investigating the various options about making that available, and how it may impact cross-play. If that ever changes, you’ll hear it from us first.
This statement is odd. Investigating how mouse support will impact crossplay?
It's already impacting crossplay because PC players will be using mice...
So DICE's answer is to only let PC players use mice in crossplay, because if consoles could use mice it would impact crossplay too much...
@OskooI_007 Come on now PC doesn't have that many advantages already you know its only fair to keep consoles players on one device /s. I just can't wait for ppl to see it in action the forums will be a fun place for the 6-9th hehe.
1. PC players will moan at the aim bot levels aim assist will need to be at
2. console gamers will moan at PC players with cheaters ( No anti-cheat is 100%)
