Wuthering Waves offers players a dynamic action RPG experience especially with regards to its availability on PC as well as iOS and Android mobile devices.
Those playing on mobile may find touch controls less comfortable and prefer using a controller instead. As the game’s release approaches, fans are anticipating official confirmation on whether this feature will be available.
Many players are eager to know if Wuthering Waves will include controller support, as it can greatly enhance gameplay comfort and accessibility.

Does Wuthering Waves Support Mobile Controllers?
At this time, mobile players will have to rely on touchscreen controls since Wuthering Waves does not offer controller support on iOS or Android. While controller compatibility exists for the PC version, mobile users do not currently have an option to connect external controllers.
Developer Kuro Games has not announced any plans for adding mobile controller support through an update. Until an official update is released, players who prefer controllers will need to either adapt to touch controls or switch to the PC version, where controller support is fully functional.
For Android users, certain devices like the Razer Kishi Ultra include a feature that enables button mapping for touchscreen-based games. This allows players to assign touch controls to the controller buttons, making it possible to use a physical controller in games that do not natively support it. Unfortunately, this feature is not available for iOS users.
How PC Players Can Use Controllers in Wuthering Waves
For those playing on PC, Wuthering Waves offers seamless controller support. The game is fully compatible with Xbox, DualShock 4, and DualSense controllers, whether launched through the native WuWa app or via the Epic Games installer.
Unlike mobile players who are limited to touchscreen controls, PC users can easily switch between controllers and traditional keyboard-and-mouse setups. After testing both input methods, using a controller feels more intuitive during combat, especially in high-speed battles like World Boss encounters.
However, the choice between a controller and keyboard comes down to personal preference, as both options function well within the game.
