If you've got PlayStation 4 controller drift, there are several reasons and also a handful of fixes to try.

How to Connect a PS5 Controller to a PS4 Console Once you've got an adapter, all you'll need is your PS4 and your DualSense controller. Getting your controller working will only take a few seconds.

To connect your PS4 controller via Bluetooth, simply hold the small Share button and the central circular button simultaneously until the controller's backlight starts flashing.

Contrary to popular belief, it is indeed possible to use a PS4 controller with a PS5 albeit with a few caveats.

On your PS4 DualShock Controller, press and hold the PlayStation button found in the center of your controller and the Share button in the upper-left portion.

If you're looking for a great controller for playing games on a Mac, look no further than Sony's PS4 DualShock 4 or Microsoft's Xbox One controller.

You can also use the PS4 controller wirelessly if your PC has Bluetooth connectivity. To pair your devices together, press and hold the PS Button and Share button together for three seconds.

Under Settings, select Devices > Bluetooth Devices and hover over your controller name with drift issues. On a working PS4 controller, press the Options button in the upper-right corner of the screen.
