Sony exec: PS4 controllers will work on PCs Oct 7th 2013, 17:34, by Jared Newman Sony's PlayStation 4 game controllers will be a little more PC-friendly than current PS3 controllers. Shuhei Yoshida, president of Worldwide Studios for Sony, tweeted that the PlayStation 4's controllers will have basic PC compatibility at launch. He then clarified that the controller's analog sticks and buttons "will work just fine" on Windows PCs. As for additional functions, Yoshida said to wait for the "field report" after launch. This suggests that the PS4 controller's touchpad may not be compatible. PlayStation 3 controllers already work on PCs, but only in conjunction with third-party software, such as MotioninJoy or Better DS3. Yoshida's comments suggest that the new controller will support PC gaming out of the box.
