SWJFO - PS5 Controller detected as Xbox controller and showing Xbox inputs

So I've recently been playing Fallen Order on PC but when I first started I noticed that though I had a PS5 controller plugged in the game would detect it as an Xbox controller and provide inputs. I did much research and have seen that this topic has come up somewhat frequently elsewhere, but nevertheless I am still trying to find if there is a way to fix this at all, or if there is no solution as Fallen Order will not detect PS5 controllers natively.

I've done what was said to fix it but only really fixed compatibility issues with the physical usage of the controller rather than graphical issues in regards to the inputs mentioned. These were:
-  Installing DS4

-  Disabling Steam Input

-  Disabling PlayStation controller support in the Steam General settings

I also tried launching the game from Origin as a last attempt but that did not work. Does anyone else have any unseen knowledge at all?

  • Hi @EA_Atic , I've been using Steam to play Fallen Order so far but I tried it on Origin and it didn't change yet. I haven't launched it from the EA app and I don't have it on the Epic Games store, although I do have Star Wars: Squadrons (not installed), if that could have the same thing happen to it.

  • @EA_Atic I just launched Squadrons and it showed joycon inputs with numbers when a PS5 controller was linked. See attached photo.
