1. Basic information.

Thanks to the GameBuy store, which kindly provided me with a Sony Dualshock 4 v2 gamepad (there is the same OEM, without packaging), I had the opportunity to get acquainted with the updated gamepad from Sony, and also compare it with the first revision gamepad I already have.



1. Basic information. Review. Comparison with the gamepad of the first revision.

Since the fall of 2016, bundled with the new PlayStation 4 Slim and PlayStation 4 Pro consoles, as well as on separate sale, an updated DualShock 4 v2 controller has appeared. (CUH-ZCT2E) Visually, the innovations are purely cosmetic: the light panel shines not only from the end, but is also displayed as a thin strip of light on the touchpad. It is also stated that data can be transferred via USB in addition to Bluetooth. It sounds incomprehensible, but what it really means is that when connected with a USB cord, in our case to a PC, it becomes possible to output sound to the gamepad and use, if a headset is connected to the gamepad, the microphone from that same headset. When you connect the updated gamepad to the PC via Bluetooth, there will still be no sound; if you want sound “over the air”, a wireless adapter from Sony will help you; there will be sound on both the old and the new gamepad.
The top surface of the gamepad has become completely matte, without glossy inserts.
According to numerous reviews on the network, despite the same capacity of the built-in battery, the autonomy of the gamepad has increased.
There may be internal, schematic changes, but I haven’t disassembled the gamepad yet. I'm holding on)))
Here are some photos - everyone loves photos.

The box is absolutely the same as the gamepad of the previous revision:


You can distinguish the brothers by the sign on the box, where the version and article number are clearly indicated:

The gamepad version is also indicated on the bottom surface of the box:

The front side of the gamepad of the second revision is completely matte, without glossy inserts:


Here's the old and the new together:

And finally: the old one, the new one and their little friend... they all didn’t fit into the frame:

In general, from the point of view of tactile sensations, I did not notice any significant differences from the old gamepad. Everything is at the level: “well, here it is - this seems to be better... but no, it seemed.” Both old and new gamepads are equally good in terms of tactile sensations.


3. Features of connecting to a PC.



Since the blog is an addition to the topic on overs, dedicated to the selection and discussion of gamepads, primarily gamepads for use on a PC, there is no information on using DUALSHOCK 4 in conjunction with the PlayStation 4. Sorry. This is not for me.
I also want to warn you that Any undocumented use of DUALSHOCK 4 is not supported or encouraged by Sony. Those. Don't contact tech. Sony support with questions incorrect operation DUALSHOCK 4 on a PC together with a Chinese noname Bluetooth adapter or claims to work in utilities like DS4Windows.
Something like this.

Let's continue...

How to connect a gamepad to a PC is described in detail in this section of the blog, and the nuances of connecting using an adapter from Sony are described in this section of the blog. I will dwell in detail, namely, on the features of connecting the new gamepad, and they exist.
You need to understand right away that the new gamepad from Sony most likely will not work even in those few PC games that have “native” support for the old DUALSHOCK 4. Unless, of course, the developers of a particular game fix this with a patch.
The reason here is that the gamepad is a DirectInput device and, unlike XInput, where a gamepad with support for the XInput API is automatically recognized by any game, like an XBox 360-compatible one, and everything immediately works and vibrates, in the case of DirectInput devices, initialization occurs according to HWID (unique hardware identifier), and this same hardware ID is different for the old and new dual shocks:

HWID of the entire DS4 family from Sony:

Wireless adapter:

Device name: DUALSHOCK®4 USB Wireless Adapter

HWID: 054C:0BA0

DUALSHOCK 4 first revision:

Device name: Wireless Controller

HWID: 054C:05C4

DUALSHOCK 4 second revision:

Here, which solve all PC compatibility problems and even more. With these programs, the gamepad will work in all games that support XInput. Also, with the help of these programs, you can use the built-in touchpad as a mouse, adjust the backlight, and use gyro to assign various actions to it.

If we talk about the hardware differences between the gamepads of the first and second revisions. As I wrote at the very beginning of the page, when connecting the DUALSHOCK 4 V2 wired to a PC, it became possible to output sound to the gamepad and use, if a headset is connected to the gamepad, the microphone from that same headset:



That's not all.
I will update the page new information as it arrives and according to my free time.

If you have any additional questions, ask them here or in the topic on gamepads on forums.overclockers.ru or.
I also have a news

Every gamer knows that a lot depends on the quality of the gamepad. A unique controller has been developed for PS4, unlike anything else. Buying Dualshock 4 in Moscow is not a problem. But who needs an ordinary, unremarkable gamepad, of which there are thousands? Why should you choose this option?

In this article we will tell all about DualShock 4, as well as about alternative controllers for PS4.

How to connect a DualShock 4 gamepad to PS4

When you first start, the system will ask you to introduce it to the gamepad. This is done very quickly:

  1. Connect the Micro USB cable to the joystick;
  2. Insert the cord into the console with the other side;
  3. Press any button on the DualShock 4;
  4. Done, the cable can be disconnected.

Let's talk separately about the cable. If you are him lose or damage, there will be nothing to charge the controller battery with. When the system asks re-register the gamepad, and this happens after updates, then you will not be able to do this.

A lost cable can be replaced by purchasing a new one, most often a non-original one. It depends on your luck: the joystick may be charging, but will not be recognized by the system, or vice versa. Sometimes he can do not interact with the console at all.

We figured out how to connect a new gamepad to PS4, let's move on to the next topic.

How to connect a second joystick to PS4

If you like to play with friends, then one joystick is clearly not enough. A friend can bring his own gamepad, even if it is not from PS4 (see below), or a regular DualShock 4.

50% of new users There is a problem connecting an additional controller. The console doesn't give any hints on how to do this, so people look for answers on the Internet.

You need to connect your DualShock 4 to the PS4 account created on the console. This means that to play together, you need to have 2 accounts. If you don't want to create a new profile, just open guest.

All trophies and achievements obtained in the guest account are will be erased and not saved anywhere.

First the first gamepad is connected, then the second player presses the button PS and logs into another account, etc. Maximum amount players – 4.

Which gamepads are suitable for PS4

Some people think that for PS4 you need to buy only original controller, but it is not so. You can connect a controller from Xbox to PS4, and also use DualShock 3 on PS4.

Using a special device, you can connect any popular controller, regardless of its version and manufacturer.

There are several adapters for old joysticks from PS3 and Xbox 360. The most popular is called Titan One. It looks like a USB flash drive and is inserted into the corresponding connector on the set-top box.

By connecting this device to your PC, you can configure any USB joystick.

The joystick is directly connected to the adapter, which transmits information about the buttons pressed to the system.

At the same time, there is one difficulty. Old joysticks are often not suitable for playing on PS4 at all. This is due to the fact that part gameplay builds on DualShock 4 capabilities that other controllers don't have: accelerometer, touchpad, etc. The easiest way is to buy a new PlayStation 4 controller than to spend money on an expensive and not very effective adapter.

List of platforms, whose joysticks can be used with PS4: PS3, Xbox 360, Xbox One, PC.

The adapter recodes the signal that comes from Xbox joystick One, and adapts it for PS4. Can be customized wireless connection.

The only thing that doesn't please me is the price of adapters. One connector may cost up to 5-6 thousand rubles. Connecting a PS3 gamepad to PS4 will cost more than buying the original DualShock 4.

Custom joysticks for PS4

Not long ago, information appeared about two professional gamepads developed in collaboration with Sony - Razer Raiju and Nacon Revolution.


Both controllers are a bit similar to the Xbox joystick, but only in appearance. They are calculated for experienced players and professional gamers. You can customize individual macros, adjust the depth of trigger pull, and much more. Unlike other joysticks, they have received an official license from Sony, so there is no point in worrying about compatibility.

How to connect a PS4 gamepad to a computer

The first thing you need to do is download the InputMapper program and do the following:

  1. Connect the fully charged controller to the PC;
  2. Open the program and turn on the gamepad with the button PS;
  3. Wait until automatic synchronization finishes.

If you have a Bluetooth adapter, you can set up a wireless connection using the same program. Hold down the buttons PS And Share, and the joystick will appear in the list of available devices on your computer.

If DualShock 4 does not work on PC, check for installed components:

  • Microsoft .NET 4.0;
