Bluetooth controller for gaming

[GuyV]

I've tried the Microsoft Series X controller and it doesn't see it at all. I tried an Xbox One controller and it always sees it, sometimes connects, but never actually works.

Any more word on which controllers are supposed to work for sure?

Checking in to see if any member has figured out working controllers for the CT?

I have 2 PS5 controllers. They work perfectly together. Sucks you can only have 2 Bluetooth devices connected at once.

Good to know. I personally want Xbox layout but the nieces and nephews can bring their own. ?

Can you post a link to the controllers you have? This way I can avoid getting the wrong gear. Thanks in advance

I was unable to pair my old PS4 controller. Purchased a PS5 controller and it pairs perfectly.

I can't get them in pairing mode. The manual says to connect to game console with USB to pair. Then they can be used wirelessly.

Using PS5 controller.

I just followed the instructions from Sony for the controllers: While pressing and holding the create button, press and hold the PS button until the light bar blinks

Then on CT, go to Bluetooth and add device.

I did not connect them to CT with a usb cable to pair. Only afterwards to charge.

My son got a ps5 dual sense connected to the cybertruck and then we got Madden 24 and MLB the show 24 running on Xbox cloud in the browser. Front only, parked, half the screen only. There are paid websites that let you do a full screen solution with a YouTube hack. The hack doesn’t work on its own as google search has been locked out from the YouTube app. Why not YouTubeTV??

I am running YouTube TV in both my Model 3 and Cybertruck. PM for details if you are interested. - Can you elaborate on running cloud games through the browser and the full screen option? Thanks!

They just updated so the browser goes full screen parked. Just go to Xbox.com and choose cloud. If you have game pass with cloud you can play tons of games in the browser with a Bluetooth controller. Some lag depending on game and where you are. Also he was able to play while driving using the right half of the screen for his game. I couldn’t believe it worked as they keep videos from playing on a web page when driving.
