While a Tweet from the company says that users will need a Windows 11 PC, the system requirements listed on Sony's download portal says that the Firmware Updater is compatible with Windows 10 64-bit too. Sony's stance towards Windows users is changing, and that can only mean good news for PC gamers. This is why Sony has released a Firmware Updater for Windows, to allow users to update the DualSense wireless controller from their Windows PC. Updating a controller's firmware is quite important, as it can help patch bugs that can cause connectivity issues, battery drain, and other problems. Even third-party tools such as DS4Windows don't have a workaround for this problem. If you don't have a Sony PlayStation 5 but own the controller, you can't update the game pad's firmware, simply because there is no way to do it. Regardless of that, there is an issue with such gamepads. Some games may be downright unplayable without a controller, but usually these are bad ports of a console version. A gamepad can provide better controls for movement or combat in games like Elden Ring, and tighter driving/steering in racing games like Forza Horizon 5, than a mouse and keyboard setup might provide. Many people use a controller to play games on their computer.
