Cronus Zen supports all versions of the PlayStation 5 console. Connect your favorite PlayStation, Xbox, and Nintendo controller, including Mouse & Keyboard support, all with access to the famous Cronus GamePacks and GPC script engine.

👉 This page includes the following important information for PlayStation 5 gaming:

• Supported PS5 Consoles
• Supported Input Devices
• PS4 SPECIALITY or PS REMOTE PLAY?

All the controllers, mice, and keyboards that are supported by Cronus Zen will work on the PlayStation 5 with either PS4 SPECIALITY or PS REMOTE PLAY (read below to see which one you need). That includes most licensed controllers for PlayStation, Xbox, and Nintendo by either USB, Wireless Adapter, or Bluetooth, as well as most Mice and Keyboards! All default button re-mapping is done automatically by the Zen 👍

It's important to know which method to use, but don't worry it's not difficult

The PS4 SPECIALITY method is used with PS5 games that recognize third-party licensed PS4 controllers. Basically, if the game shows the error "PS5 games can't be played using the current controller", you can't use PS4 SPECIALITY with that game and need to use PS REMOTE PLAY (or try the PS4 version of the game).

PS4 SPECIALITY requires a third-party licensed PS4 controller (e.g., the HORI PS4 Mini-Pad 🛒), or the Cronus PS5 Dongle (we don't make these anymore, but the HORI does the exact same function).

The PS4 SPECIALITY 👈 guide explains everything with easy step-by-step instructions.

PS REMOTE PLAY supports almost all PS5 games. It doesn't matter if the game supports third-party PS4 controllers or not, so you do not need a HORI Mini-Pad or PS5 Dongle👍

It does however require a good quality internet connection, preferably wired ethernet, and any PC/Mac/iOS/Android device to run the official Sony PS REMOTE PLAY app, or the awesome open-source CHIAKI REMOTE PLAY for Windows and Android.
