      Almost certainly not natively. It might have a fallback to an XInput mode, in which case it could work with an adapter (but without the back buttons, gyro etc).

        No, as confirmed by Gamers Nexus. Steam Deck doesn’t either. Personally, I think it’s bad to have the requirement of Steam as a driver but there are also plenty of alternatives out there, so I’m not starting a riot over this.

      Not natively, because Sony has a mandatory certification program for wireless controllers.

      In theory you make it emulate a PS controller, or you can use a USB receiver like XIM MATRIX or do a ridiculous workaround like connect it using Playstation remote play. Maybe somebody will reprogram the included adapter to work with PS5.

      Maybe a stupid question, but could this work with a playstation too?

      Maybe as a mouse. It’s the same as with the Steam Deck: Without Steam running, it acts as a mouse NOT as a game pad. It required games to be launched from Steam to use it as a game controller.
