[games_access] Battlefield 2042 on PS5 not allowing 3rd party controllers

[Barrie Ellis]

It's very annoying and seemingly completely unnecessary. You can get around
it in a very clunky way, using a Windows PC and the Playstation Remote Play
app: https://remoteplay.dl.playstation.net/remoteplay/lang/en/ps5_win.html

Here's some others that don't work with a PS4 controller directly:

Kena: Bridge of Spirits
Lost in Random
Deathloop
Fornite
Doom Eternal
Back 4 Blood
Final Fantasy VII Remake
Call Of Duty: Vanguard
Diablo II: Resurrected
Ghost of Tsushima Directors Cut
Wreckfest
Ghost recon break point
2k22

If only Sony would allow for some nature of co-piloting a PS4 gamepad
alongside a PS5 gamepad, I just can't see how they lose out. Perhaps it's
not possible?

Currently the PS5 gamepad walled garden is shutting a lot of physically
disabled gamers out. Let's hope it gets better soon.
