Baldur’s Gate 3 is a Larian Studios title that perfectly mixes the RPG genre with the Dungeons and Dragons aesthetic. Due to the game’s heavy RPG system, many will say it’s best experienced with a keyboard and mouse. But for those playing on console, does Baldur’s Gate 3 support controller?
Yes, Baldur’s Gate 3 supports controllers.
On the PC version, you can connect a PS5, PS4, or even Xbox controller to access the game. Although there still isn’t a Baldur’s Gate 3 crossplay option, you can also play with friends on local multiplayer with the use of the split-screen option that activates when the two controllers press start at the same time on the game to unlock the split screen feature.
It also works nicely if you want to use the controller for a single-player campaign.
