Schedule 1originated as a PC game on Steam. While most will default to playing with a keyboard and mouse, some prefer using a controller because it fits comfortably in your hands and has fewer buttons to press. But that all depends on whetherSchedule 1has controller support.

Can you play Schedule 1 with a controller?

At the time of writing,Schedule 1doesn’t have official controller support.It also isn’tofficially Steam Deck compatible, so you won’t be able to play from the comforts of your bed, couch, or other relaxing spots. Its Steam page also confirms it wasn’t initially designed with controller or Steam Deck support in mind.

If you attempt to enter the game with a controller plugged in, you’ll be unable to move or interact with anything. None of the inputs will activate, so you can’t mix and match your devices. You’ll have to stick to keyboard and mouse until TVGS adds support for controllers or Steam Deck.

Fortunately, according to TVGS’ Trello board, controller and Steam Deck support are planned for the future. On theSchedule 1Trello, TVGS has both controller support and official Steam Deck support listed as smaller additions and improvements to the game alongside other features like in-game voice chat, emotes, and a rideable wheelchair. you may check this Trello page periodically for updates on future planned content.

Much of this depends on whetherSchedule 1will arrive on PS5 and Xbox X/S. If TVGS confirms a port to either of these platforms is coming in the future, there’s a good chance he’ll introduce controller support at the same time, if not earlier. Until then, you can watch thegame’s community hubfor regular bug fix patches and updates or keep an eye on this page for the latest details aboutSchedule 1’scontroller and Steam Deck support status.
