Which PS5 controllers are compatible with Call of Duty Mobile?
From its release, Call of Duty Mobile was compatible with a wide range of controllers, including official PlayStation 4 and Xbox One controllers. More recently, an update extended this possibility to Xbox Series X/S and PlayStation 5 controllers.
Good news for PS5 owners: the official DualSense controller is fully compatible with CoD Mobile. This compatibility also applies to some third-party controllers, such as the PS5 R5P controller, a high-end controller specially designed for demanding players.
To fully enjoy your PS5 controller on CoD Mobile, make sure your smartphone or tablet runs on iOS or Android and has a Bluetooth 5.0 connection, ensuring a stable and low-latency signal.

How to connect your PS5 controller to Call of Duty Mobile?
Connecting your PS5 controller to CoD Mobile takes only a few minutes. Here is a step-by-step guide for a smooth setup.
- Start by putting your DualSense wireless controller in pairing mode. To do this, simultaneously hold down the PS button (in the center) and the CREATE button (to the left of the touchpad) until the controller's light bar flashes blue.
- On your smartphone, go to Bluetooth settings. Enable Bluetooth if it is not already on, then search for available devices. You should see your PS5 controller appear in the list. Select it to pair.
- Once the controller is connected, launch Call of Duty Mobile. Access the game settings by tapping the gear icon at the top of the main menu. In the settings menu, look for the "Controller" or "Gamepad" tab. Enable the "Controller Compatibility" option if it is not already checked.
- CoD Mobile allows you to customize the button configuration to your preferences. Feel free to adjust the settings to optimize your gaming comfort and performance.
If your mobile device remains inactive for a while, the connection with the controller may be interrupted. In this case, try turning your controller back on: in most cases, it will automatically resynchronize with your phone. If not, repeat the Bluetooth connection process above.
Using a PS5 controller on Call of Duty Mobile can significantly improve your accuracy and responsiveness in the game. The familiar controls of the DualSense (or an equivalent PlayStation 5 controller), combined with its advanced ergonomics, give you a definite advantage on the virtual battlefield. It's your turn to play!
