Yeah, controller issue in a game is not a big thing since we hear this now and then whenever a game is released. So now could Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba The Hinokami Chronicles be behind?
According to the players, the controllers either do not work or are not detected or stop suddenly. This is the issue with all the controllers – PlayStation, Xbox, branded ones like Logitech F310, and other generic controllers.
If you are facing this controller issue, read the full article to get an idea about what to do.
- CHECK FOR THE CONTROLLER SUPPORT IN YOUR PC
This is the first and the basic thing you need to do before moving on to troubleshooting. You know what controller you’re using, right? Depending on which controller you’re using to play the game, make sure that the controller support is enabled in your rig. It happens mostly that the PC doesn’t have the controller support enabled. So check carefully.
- UPDATE YOUR CONTROLLER DRIVERS
This is one of the most common issues with all the controllers – they are outdated. Just like other peripherals, there is a chance that your PC does not have the driver dedicated to your controller. This leads to the controllers being outdated, and the game does not detect them.
The solution to this issue is simple. You know the manufacturer of your controller. So just visit their official website and download the drivers needed for your controller. If you face any difficulties regarding the correct driver, feel free to ask their support team to help you out.
Still, if you are unable to find the proper drivers for your controller, you can use some third-party software that will automatically fetch the latest driver update for any available hardware connected to your PC.
Two of the best third-party software for automatic fixation of the drivers’ issue of controllers are IObit’s driver booster and Driver Easy. You can go for these without any issues.
- THIRD-PARTY CONTROLLER SUPPORT
In a lot of cases, it happens that the PC you have does not support the controller you are using. To solve this issue, you can use some third-party controller software that helps in pairing up your rig with your controller.
