Problems with DualSense and Xbox controllers on PC

1. The premiere version of God of War Ragnarok on PC contains problems with proper controller support - when you launch the game, the DualSense (PS5 controller) or Xbox controller may not work properly.
2. A solution may be to change the operation of Steam Input - you need to go to the Controller tab in the settings of the Steam client. Try to change the current state - deactivate and then activate back the controller support. The problem can also be caused by playing in wireless mode - try connecting the controller to the computer via a cable.

Problems with mouse performance on PC

1. One of the potential bugs of the PC version of God of War Ragnarok is the lack of responsiveness to mouse movements. The game can thus force you to perform all actions on the keyboard - the mouse can be replaced by the arrow keys.
2. Unfortunately, there is no single proven solution to the problem. You can try restarting the game, temporarily exiting the game with the ALT+TAB key combination, or changing the mouse sensitivity in the game settings. This problem should be fixed with one of the future updates.
