Can you use controllers with Diablo 4 on PC?
Diablo 4 players fretting over the uncertainty of controller support need not worry as Angela Del Priore – Lead Game Designer for Diablo 4 – confirmed its inclusion.
In a Blizzard blog post from February 2020, she had this to say: “This is the first time a Diablo game is being developed simultaneously for both PC and consoles, but the decision to support controller input on PC is what caused the greater paradigm shift for us. We wanted to give players the ability to switch between the two options freely, so our UI needed to be unified enough that swapping hardware inputs on the fly wouldn’t throw people completely off kilter.”
