To connect PS5 controllers to CoD Mobile, you must first activate the Bluetooth setting on your phone. This guide will share steps that work for both, iOS and Android devices.

  • After turning on the Bluetooth in your phone, grab your PS5 controller.
  • Next, press and hold the PS5 button along with the Share button together. Doing so will put the controller in Bluetooth pairing mode. You will see a blue light flash on your controller's panel. This indicates that the pairing mode has been activated.
  • Next, find the controller on your phone from the devices list. It should be listed as a 'DualSense Wireless Controller'. Click on it and your phone will be connected to your PS5 controller.
  • Now that the two devices have been linked, quickly go ahead and open up CoD Mobile.
  • Once on the main menu, go to Settings>Controller>Settings. On this panel, ensure that the 'Enable Controller Support' box has been checked.
  • You can now adjust your controller settings from all the available panels in the section. Now your PS5 controller is connected to CoD Mobile. Hop into a game and test it all out.

This was how you can connect PS5 controllers to CoD Mobile. The process is pretty straightforward. Some players have complained that pairing the two devices doesn't help playing with a controller in-game. The game actually supports most of the modern Xbox, PS5, and Backbone One controllers.

However, compatibility issues may arise between two devices. If you run into issues with actually playing the game with a controller, disconnect and then reconnect it. This may help troubleshoot the issue at hand. However, if it still doesn't work, try using a different controller.

Playing CoD Mobile with a controller may give players an upper hand against those who play with the phone's touchscreen. This is why it is a popular option among many.
