How to Connect Mouse & Keyboard to PS4 Console for Games (Best Method)

Описание: Connecting a mouse and keyboard to your PS4 console is generally straightforward, but it's crucial to understand that not all games support mouse and keyboard input for gameplay. The functionality largely depends on whether the game's developers have specifically implemented it.

Here's how to connect them and what you need to know about playing games:

How to Connect Mouse and Keyboard to PS4
There are two main ways to connect your peripherals:

1. Wired USB Connection (Most Reliable and Simplest)

This is the recommended method for most users, as it's typically plug-and-play.

Locate USB Ports:
Plug In:

Plug the USB connector of your wired keyboard into one of the USB ports.
Plug the USB connector of your wired mouse into another available USB port.
Power On PS4: If your PS4 is off, power it on. If it's already on, it should detect the devices automatically.

Confirmation: You'll usually see a notification on your screen indicating that a keyboard and/or mouse has been connected.

USB Hub (Optional): If you're short on USB ports (e.g., if you also have an external hard drive or charging cables), you can use a USB hub connected to one of the PS4's ports to expand your connection options.

2. Wireless Bluetooth Connection

This method is for Bluetooth-enabled keyboards and mice.
Prepare Your Devices for Pairing:
Crucial Step: Put your wireless keyboard and mouse into "pairing mode" or "discovery mode." This usually involves holding down a specific button (often a Bluetooth or "Connect" button) on the device until a light starts flashing.

On Your PS4 Console:
Turn on your PS4 and log in to your user profile.
Go to Settings (the toolbox icon on the home screen).
Scroll down and select Devices.
Select Bluetooth Devices.
Scan and Select:

Your PS4 will scan for nearby Bluetooth devices. Your keyboard and mouse should appear in the list.

Select your keyboard first from the list. The PS4 might display a passkey (numbers). Type this passkey on your keyboard and press Enter.
Once the keyboard is connected, repeat the process for your mouse.
Confirm Connection: Once successfully paired,
