Just an FYI, through the origin client there is full support for the DS4 for Jedi:FO.  The options menu even displays the PS4 controller picture on the button mapping.

That's great to hear, since I have a DS4 controller myself.

Looks like my info was outdated. I unmarked my reply as the solution and set it to your reply instead.

Yeah, super happy about it. The few games I play on origin dontt have either ds4 support or ds4 icons (madden 20, DA:I, NFS:heat) so I was fully expecting your answer to ring true haha; was pleasantly surprised when I saw the full native support!

Maybe Steam's drivers are overriding the game settings. What happens if you disable PS4 controller support in the Steam settings?

I’ve noticed that games that natively support the DS4 and have the icons will not work correctly if you have “PS4 controller support” checked in the options of steam. 

I had the same issue with Greedfall, and Witcher 3. It showed the Xbox buttons and prompts, but once I went in and unchecked the PS4 compatibility when I launched the game it was straight DS4 buttons. I’d recommend trying that! 

Replied before I saw you got it working, awesome!

That's good to know. I tested GreedFall with my DS4 a while back and got Xbox icons (though I'm enjoying it with mouse and keyboard just fine). I guess I'll just always disable it in the Steam settings unless I absolutely need it.

Do you have to have anything else checked? I've relaunched the game a few times after unchecking that and my DS4 works, but control prompts are still Xbox. I know it's drastic, but going to try rebooting next and see if that helps.

Maybe you can link a screenshot of your settings and the in-game controller menu? Not saying I don't believe you, but I definitely can't seem to get it working through Steam.

I still can't get the DS4 to work in the game at all. I have it paired to Windows 10 through bluetooth, and Steam recognizes the controller. I've tried checking and unchecking the PS4 controller support and restarting the controller in between, and launched the game from Big Picture mode as well.

It's probably Origin getting in the way. It works to navigate around Big Picture but button presses aren't doing anything in game.

Edit: I got the controller to work by going under Manage Game in big picture mode and changing the controller options to Force On. It's still showing Xbox controller buttons though in game, but it's a start!

My motherboard has onboard Bluetooth, and that didn't work for me. I also have the official PS4 dongle, which was like $15 bucks. If I use the official dongle I get PS4 prompts, but if I use onboard I get Xbox prompts.

When I originally bought it years ago it was $15... Amazon seems to sell them for $75 which is insane... Gamestop seems to have it for $9 though, so if you have to have PS4 prompts maybe check that out.

Or hopefully someone can let us know how to get it with normal bluetooth.

That's probably it then. I've tried Bluetooth and USB.

I actually have one of those PS4 dongles somewhere. I'll try to find it.

Thanks!

If you are connected via a non-Sony Bluetooth dongle/adapter, the game will only pick the controller up as an Xbox controller (while using DS4Windows)

If you turn off DS4Windows, the controller doesnt work at all

If you connect the DS4 using USB, everything works perfectly with DS4 button prompts in-game etc

Obviously an issue with using non-Sony dongles....not sure if there is any way around it for the Origin version. If you are using the Steam version though, it probably works fine using Steam DS4 support via big picture. (It does for other steam games)

Just wondering if you are using usb aswell? I cant seem to get it to work wirelessly.

Also looking for a similar answer....

I'm having the same problem with DS4 on origin. USB works flawless, but with my onboard bluetooth adapter won't work. I do not have the sony bluetooth adaptor. Anyone know if there is any fix for that?

Best regards

Can you make a detailed list of steps to get to this point? I keep on getting Xbox imagery, and as a former playstation guy it is very distracting and confusing. 

So to get it working, I just have to plug in my DS4 controller into my PC's USB port and star Fallen Order? Also, what abbout button promts?

i tried that for Naruto shippuden ultimate ninja storm 2 but it not work

I was having the same issue, but the game wouldn't open when I was in Big Picture Mode, only the startup screen. I was able to add an autostart script to the startup configuration to get the game to automatically startup. After I finally was able to get the game to start the controller was recognized but the game was going crazy and selecting all of the menu options as if someone was holding down the joystick. I have tried multiple controllers (Xbox, PS4, Scuf Xbox, and Scuf PS4) and ALL controllers have the same issue and go nuts. I have configured my controller and updated all of the settings, and even uninstalled and reinstalled the game yet nothing seems to be fixing the issue. All controllers work fine with other Steam games. This is the only game I have this issue. PLEASE HELP!!!

Hey, not sure if it matters to you but I reckon others might find this thread. I got DualShock 4 v2 to work with Jedi Fallen Order on the PC with DS4 prompts, meaning the game recognizes it is a DS4 controller. This was done after a fresh Windows installation. It worked when I installed DS4Windows 2.1.3.0 version. The profile set was using DS4 instead of X360 Controller as seen in the screenshot, doesn't work with DInput turned on so do not use that. Now it didn't matter if I had "Hide DS4 Controller" turned ON or OFF, it worked in both cases. Now I will mention that previously I had issues and it didn't want to work at all, sometimes it would work with a cable or only as X360 controller. Tried deleting a bunch of drivers in Device Manager, repairing the game via Origin and other shenanigans. Nothing worked until I reinstalled Windows for a fresh start. So in case, anybody is wondering, you do not need a PS4 dongle which costs ridiculous amounts of money and it works with DS4Windows app. You just might need to reinstall your Windows to get it working but it can be done. Oh and running it through Steam totally didn't work with the game. Prior to the restart, it did as X360 but now even though Steam recognizes the controller, the game doesn't. I hope somebody finds this useful.
