Ready to dive into your favorite PlayStation 4 games but struggling to connect your DualShock 4 controller? Don't fret! Connecting your PS4 controller is easier than conquering a Dark Souls boss. Here's a quick guide:
**Wired Connection:** Simply plug your controller into your PS4 console using a USB cable. The PS4 should automatically recognize it, and you're good to go!
**Wireless Connection (Bluetooth):**
1. **Initial Pairing:** If it's a new controller or hasn't been paired before, connect it via USB first. This establishes the initial connection.
2. **Subsequent Connections:** Once paired, press and hold the PlayStation button in the center of the controller. The light bar will flash blue, indicating it's searching for a connection.
3. **Troubleshooting:** If it's not connecting, try resetting the controller. Locate the small reset button on the back (near the L2 button) and use a pin or paperclip to press and hold it for a few seconds. Then, try the connection process again.
With these simple steps, you'll be back in the game in no time! Happy gaming!
