Can I Play GBFV With An Xbox Controller?

HELP/QUESTION

Hello! I'm rather new to versus and I play on steam, and was wondering if it's possible to play with an xbox controller? I'm fine with my keyboard but it can feel a little cramped to me sometimes, and I'm much more used to a normal xbox controller.

You can, but you probably won't do as well 'cause Xbox dpads are painful to use for extended periods of time.

Not exactly. 360's d-pad is atrocious, but XOne's is totally fine. YMMV whether DS4's or XOne's d-pad is better, but both are generally regarded as pretty good.

To OP - yes, it's plug and play. The game even changes the button prompts depending on the controller you use.

I've gotten pretty used to using them but I'll for sure keep that in mind. For actually using the controller do I just use a usb cord and plug it into my pc?

Yeah, you just plug it in and it should work.

Just untrue You can play with whatever you feel comfortable with and enjoy the game just as much.

Yes, natively, a Rock Candy X360 controller works wonders for me.
