The dead zone on DualSense controllers for PC is absolutely atrocious.

The PS5 controller has a massive dead zone on PC when playing Battlefield 6, and the stick input snaps to a square pattern instead of a smooth circle.I recommend setting all dead zones to zero and then testing with both an Xbox controller and a PS5 controller. The difference will be immediately apparent.

This bug has existed since the beta version. We had hoped it would be fixed in the official release, but the result is disappointing. Currently, the only workaround is to use Steam Input, though it's not perfect and still doesn't achieve the smoothness of an Xbox controller.

  • Cant believe a simple bug for one input did not come with the new update. What a let down considering Battle Royal just dropped. The game all around is great however many people have been ran off due to this issue being present during launch. Steam input is definitely the fix for right now, I couldn’t imagine owning the game through EA right now.

    Automatically Steam should try to use steam-input as default. If not, try using 'enable Steam input'. Since I bought BF6 via Steam, I can't really test it out to make sure this method works or not.

    I have the razer wolverine Pro controller which is an Xbox controller and still have same problem. It's the radial deadzone that's causing this I believe  but I've put that to zero and it still not zeroed.

    Guess controller issue has been resolved. I just tried to use dualsense input rather than steam input, and  aiming feels a lot better. I could achieve more precise aiming with my dualsense controller after the recent update.
