Controller support in FPS titles has always been a controversial subject among players. Not many PC games in this genre support it. However, in the case of Gray Zone Warfare, things are not so obvious. If you want to use a controller to play, here's how.

Unfortunately, Gray Zone Warfare does not have official Controller support, although players still can use it. This applies not only to early access, but should also apply to the final release. According to the FAQ on the official website, the developers do not plan to add such a feature to the game. According to them, their first priority is to polish the PC experience. However, the opinion of the community also plays a role in further development. Therefore, there is a small chance that Controller support will appear in Gray Zone Warfare.

Despite the lack of support, players can use a controller in Gray Zone Warfare. A method for this was shared by ZeeMojo, a content creator on YouTube. He uses one of the built-in features of Steam, which allows players to use a controller even in games without its support.

To do this, open Steam settings and select your device in the Controller tab. After that, open the Gray Zone Warfare page and click on the controller icon to the right of the gear icon. Select your controller, and then create a Layout for the game. Luckily, ZeeMojo has shared its own, so you don't have to scratch your head about it.

Click on Layout, then go to the search tab and type ZeeMojo. Then click on Layout for Gray Zone Warfare and click Apply. After that, you will need to launch the game and change some things in the control settings:

  • Crouch: Period
  • Prone: Comma
  • Scope Zoom Increase: Up
  • Scope Zoom Decrease: Down

Once you complete all these steps, you will be able to play Gray Zone Warfare using a controller. But be ready to spend some time getting used to such controls.
