How to play Warzone Mobile using PS5 controller

Playing Warzone Mobile using a PS5 controller is easy and simple. You just need to follow these steps:

  • Press and hold the PS and Share buttons on your controller until the light bar flashes quickly. This means the controller is ready to pair.
  • On your mobile device, go to Settings and tap Bluetooth.
  • Look for ‘DualSense wireless PS5 controller’ in the list of available devices and tap it to connect.
  • Open the Warzone Mobile app and go to Settings.
  • Tap Controller Settings to adjust the button layout, sensitivity, and other options for your controller.

If your phone is left idle, the Bluetooth connection may disconnect, and you will have to reconnect your phone to the controller using the setup detailed above.

Please note: You can switch between touchscreen and/or controller at any time, and some menu access can only be controlled via touchscreen.
