Apex Legends is a free-to-play battle royale-hero shooter game developed by Respawn Entertainment and published by Electronic Arts. It was released for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One in February 2019, for Nintendo Switch in March 2021, and for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S in March 2022. A mobile version of the game specially designed for touchscreens titled Apex Legends Mobile has also been announced which is scheduled to release in May 2022 on Android and iOS. The game supports cross-platform play. Apex Legends Mobile is now officially released globally alongside Season 1. Despite being designed for touch screen gaming, many gamers prefer using a controller with their mobile devices to play first-person shooters. However, on the launch day, a number of players are reporting that their controllers are simply not working with Apex Legends Mobile. Here’s what we know about the Apex Legends Mobile controller issue, and if it can be fixed.
Does Apex Legends Mobile have Controller Support?
Is your Apex Legends mobile not registering the controller when you try to use it with your tablet or phone. If yes then the answer to this problem is very simple. Developers have confirmed that Apex Legends Mobile will not support controllers at launch. This may come as a disappointment for those who had planned to play the game with a controller. However, there is some good news as well. Developers have also confirmed that they are actively working on implementing controller support. At the moment, devs promise that controller support should come in the “very near future”.
And from this we can expect official controller support in the coming weeks. Nonetheless, despite the lack of official support, some players report that certain controllers are working normally. According to reports, the Xbox One and DualSense controllers are working perfectly fine. It seems that Xbox and PlayStation controllers are not having compatibility issues with most devices. However, other users on Reddit report that many third-party controllers, such as Razer Kishi, Trust GTX, and MOGA XP5X+, are not working.
So guys, let me tell you, if you have a PlayStation or Xbox controller, you will be able to use them with Apex Legends Mobile. On the other hand, most other controllers are still not compatible with Apex Mobile. But that should change soon as developers have promised to add more compatibility soon following the launch.
