Assassin’s Creed Odyssey is an action role-playing adventure-based open-world video game developed by Ubisoft Quebec and published by Ubisoft in 2018. It’s available for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation, Xbox Coles, and Nintendo Switch platforms. After the new update, several players are experiencing the Assassins Creed Odyssey Xbox / PS4 and PS5 controller not working, which is pretty irritating.

Now, if you’re one of them, don’t worry because we’ve mentioned a couple of possible workarounds that should help you out. It’s needless to say that the next generation driving simulation like Assassin’s Creed Odyssey requires precision control so players can drive the truck to their destination. The problem is that even though the keyboard and mouse input works fine, the Xbox console controller (analog sticks) doesn’t do well enough.

How to Fix Assassins Creed Odyssey Xbox Controller Not Working Guide

Players can set vibration feedback to make it more accurate or practical while using the controllers. But it’s quite unfortunate that it gets disconnected consistently or quite often while using the Xbox console controller, which is nothing but frustrating. In some cases, even though the controller seems connected, it doesn’t work, which is another issue for Assassins Creed Odyssey players.

According to some reports online, there are a couple of possible issues in the controller, such as the controller not working, the controller suddenly stopping working, the controller getting disconnected, or the controller not being detected. The affected players have claimed these reports that even a PlayStation controller or Xbox controller.

Initially, the game has some bug that eventually prevents or conflicts with the controllers from running correctly. There is a workaround available that has already fixed this particular controller-related issue for some affected players. So, we’ve mentioned it below and recommend our readers to try it out once. However, it’s worth noting that this workaround may not work for everyone.

Now, whether you’re using a PS4 or PS4 controller and linked up with DS4Windows, it somehow keeps saying that the controller disconnected; please reconnect a controller, then make sure to do something to check whether it has been fixed or not.

  • Just properly connect your PS4/PS5 controller > Link up with DS4Windows.
  • Now, open the DS4Windows Settings menu > Enable the “Hide DS4 Controller” option.
  • Finally, save changes, and reboot the device to apply changes immediately.

As mentioned already, this particular solution did work for a couple of affected Assassins Creed Odyssey players who were facing issues with the controller. However, if this workaround doesn’t help, try updating your game to the latest version. Alternatively, you can try out some other third-party controller support such as reWASD or Xpadder, Pinnacle Game Profiler, or Keysticks.

Other than that, you can do nothing now except wait until the developers come up with a patch fix. So, till then, stay tuned for more info.
