Honkai Star Rail Controller Not Working: Solved

by Rajitha Reddy

Honkai Star Rail Controller Not Working: We are going to give you a few possible answers to this problem. This is just one of the PC issues with the game’s controllers.

What happens is that the game stops responding to your actions for no apparent reason. It’s very bothersome. What you can do about it is listed below.

First, you should know that Honkai Star Rail doesn’t officially support controllers when it comes out. Honkai Star Rail was made from the ground up to be played mostly with a touch screen and secondarily with a mouse and keyboard.

That doesn’t mean that official support for controllers won’t come at a later date. Even more so now that it’s official that Honkai Star Rail is coming to PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5.

So, DualShock 4 and DualSense will be officially supported on both PlayStation consoles and other platforms. But for now, you can play with a controller, though it won’t work for everyone.

Honkai Star Rail Controller Not Working Solutions

You can try a few different things if your controller doesn’t work in Honkai Star Rail. First of all, don’t play wirelessly. Instead, use a cable.

The game doesn’t like it when there are no wires, for some reason. Also, make sure all of your drivers are up-to-date, since that could be another reason why the controller freezes up while playing Honkai Star Rail.

This is especially true if you are using Dual Shock 4 or DualSense. If you’re using that to play, you might also need to turn off Steam’s support for the PlayStation controller.

I don’t understand why that works, but it seems to. In fact, as we’re about to explain, you might have to turn off Steam input all together. The problems with this game are so strange, like how the camera spins on its own.

So, we’ve told you that you might be able to fix the problem where your Honkai Star Rail controller doesn’t work by turning off the Steam controller input.

Here’s what you need to do

First, make sure you’re not still playing. Right-click “Honkai Star Rail” in your library and choose “Properties” from the menu that comes up. Click on “Controller” on the left, and then choose “Override for Honkai Star Rail” from the drop-down menu.

Click “Disable Steam Input” to finish. When you’re done, restart the game and see if the problem is still there.

There is no guarantee that any of these fixes will work. The developers are the only ones who can come up with a real answer.

Configure Controller

Setting up your controller on Steam is the next best thing to do to fix this problem. Because:

– Open Steam and click on Settings.

Now, click on the Controller tab >> General controller settings

– Here, you can set up your controller by marking the boxes next to the options you want.

– When you’re done, start the game and your controller should work.

Update The Controller Drivers

There’s a chance that your computer doesn’t have a driver for your controller. One of the main reasons why your controller doesn’t work right in Honkai Star Rail is because of this. To get the latest version of your controller drivers, go to the manufacturer’s official website and download the latest drivers. After the update, see if the problem is still there.

Use A Wired Remote

If you are using a DualSense or Dualshock 4 controller, you should use a wired connection, and the controller should start working properly. You just turn off Bluetooth and use a wired controller instead.
