Steam continues to surprise with ease of use. It couldn't be easier, you can choose the command you want and when you want. The reality is that Steam users used to get their hands on Xbox controllers due to the easy compatibility between Windows PCs and the controller in question. Nevertheless, Steam has caught the bull by the horns and has decided to add native support for the PlayStation 4 controller directly in the games that we download from your digital sales platform. A great step on the part of Steam that has wanted to have a detail with its community.
All of this has a pretty obvious reason, PlayStation 4 is the best-selling game console of this new generation, with around 45 million consoles sold. In this way, Steam has seen fit to consider that its users have many possibilities of also owning a PS4 console, and that it would be good to give them a hand, make it easier for them, save them more money if possible, allowing them to use the DualShock 4 controller directly and without complications. In this way, the DualShock 4 uses the Steam API to function correctly in the games hosted by the most powerful digital video game platform on the market. Steam continues to surprise its users, and that the sales have not yet arrived.
Believe it or not, when you use the PS4 controller through the Steam API, it works exactly as well as the Steam Controller. You can do exactly the same things. Just tap the buttons and the Steam API will take care of the rest.
In addition, they have announced that they are going to improve the controls for the virtual reality system HTC Vive, an update for Steam that will greatly please the owners of these virtual reality glasses. Nevertheless, the real reason that they have allowed to use the PS4 controller with the Steam API is that it has a touch panel and several gyros, which allow you to really take advantage of this control system.
