What to do if Dark Souls 2 PC version with controller is not working?
Dark Souls 2 has native support for controllers.
It means that when you plug any controller into your USB port (from your PC), the controller should work without any further settings and tweaks.
If your controller doesn’t work like that, you can use “Joytokey” (a free software) that works as a controller enabler.
This free software will allow you to keybind buttons to your controller.
You can download Joytokey and check how it works, here.
This software works with any controller and with any game.
Remember that you need your controller to be plugged-in before running Joytokey.
While playing Dark Souls 2, you need to keep “Joytokey” to run.
If you close it, the controller will not respond to commands anymore.
Alternatively, if you really want to experience Dark Souls 2 on PC, you can buy a wireless Xbox One controller.
This one should be plug and play on Windows 10 – Windows 11, meaning that it should work after you plug it in.
Hopefully, now you know what to do if Dark Souls 2 PC with controller is not working, either use “Joytokey” or buy a better controller.
