Keyboard and mouse on consoles
Does the game have native support on PS5 for keyboard and mouse ?
Forum Discussion
Thank you all for the upvotes, I hope my idea reach the developers.
Preloaded the Beta on my PS5.
You M&K guys on console fail to realize you're such a miniscule minority that wants to use M&K on console.
I'm sure they've already put thought into input based lobbies allowing M&K with crossplay turned on and not allowing it with it off, and if crossplay with PC ends up being an absolute nightmare I'm sure they'll possibly flip the switch on that as well I wouldn't doubt it.
DICE have already said they'll be looking into possibly implementing it somehow so what more do you want?
It's too bad ya'll aren't as vocal with having a console to console crossplay option only excluding PC from it.
Why don't Console players just stay Console players (with a controller) and PC players stay PC players (with M&K) 😉
Both things are awesome. 🙌
If someone is already thinking of playing with M&K, why not just play on PC directly and buy the game for this platform if it feels more right to you. 🙂 (talking only for Battlefield/Shooters)
Anyways, if the Team says it won't be there just yet but they're still looking into this to try making it possible in a proper way. Then we just have to wait and see.

- @Its_Travis_199 because anyone should be able to play the way he or she likes it!
And besides: Not anyone lives with a pot of gold under the bed to "just buy a PC" capable to run BF2042. Not to mention that some users have a huge library on their console as well.@Normandy-HitchieI have a question for you, what did you do exactly when there wasn't M&K support on consoles? did you just not play it? Consoles have been primarily used with a controller every gen, and last time I checked they don't come with a M&K out of the box.
I'm personally not a fan of PC players wanting to change the console platform to fit their specific wants, if someone has a disability though that's a different story.
This is old plain nonsense.
We are in 2021, not year 2000 with PC vs Console war mentality.
My favorite platform is a 400€ PS5 and my favorite input is M&K. Period.
Also, why enabling cross-play if one platform can use only one input method and the other two?
I understand the whole concept of reunite the player-base, but you have to put effort in the unifying process or some will be favorite and some demotivated.
Just slap a ’cross-play enabler option’ on the game is not enough at all.
- @Its_Travis_199 So you mean that all PC users should play Fifa, Rocket League or any racing game with mouse and keyboard? Is this what you're trying to say? Or is this a "totally different matter" because in this case of course PC users should use the best input device for each game? So why should PC users are able / allowed to do that but console users not?
And if you would have observed the hardware prices (especially for graphic cards) in the recent past you would know that your statement "why not just buy a PC" is totally ludicrous.Like I said, all the work put on crossplay will go to waste if controller users arent given the option to play with a M&K. No one is going to play with a PC otherwise. I was expecting a decent mix for day 1 but nope, 2 hours in and barely any consoles on crossplay lobby. .
