Update Your Controller Drivers:

If you are experiencing issues with your controllers in WWE 2K22 then the issue might be on the end of your controller drivers. While these are updated automatically by the windows, sometimes it just doesn’t work. In that case you can visit the official site of whichever controller that you own. Updating your drivers may fix the issue at hand.

Third Party Controller Support:

There are certain controllers that many games often just refuse to read for one reason or another, these issues most often tend to happen if you’re using a DualShock 4 controller on your PC, which certain PC games just don’t recognize. In this case, you can download software like DS4Windows that can alleviate that issue. There are also other options as well, that we have linked below:

• reWASD
• Keystick
• Xpadder
• Pinnacle Game Profiler

Using any of these can solve most issues regarding controller support in pretty much any game.

Restart WWE 2K22:

Sometimes when you connect a device while the game is running, the game isn’t able to read it until you close it and start it up again. Trying this can also possibly solve any issues regarding controllers in WWE 2K22.

Reconnect Your Controller:

This issue can be caused by the cable of your controller being stretched or pulled too far which can often cause issues in many games. In this case unplugging the controller from your PC and plugging it again will usually fix the issue in most games like WWE 2K22.

Restart Your PC

If all else fails, you need to restart your PC. Restarting it will potentially fix any controller issues that you are facing. However, this solution might not work at all but it is worth a try. Along with restarting your PC, we suggest that you reconnect the controller as well just to be sure.

Contact 2K Customer Support:

If after trying everything the issue still persists, you can contact the official 2K customer support and submit a request from there.

As an alternative, do make sure you enable the controller options from within Steam – if that is now already enabled by default.
