As avid gamers, we know how essential it is to have multiple controllers for multiplayer sessions on the PlayStation 4 (PS4). Whether you're having a gathering with friends or enjoying some quality time with family, connecting an additional controller to your PS4 is a breeze. In this step-by-step guide, we'll walk you through the entire process, ensuring a seamless and hassle-free experience.

Step 1: Powering on your PS4

Before we dive into the controller connection process, make sure your PS4 is powered on. Press the power button on your console, and wait for it to display the home screen.

Step 2: Activate the PS4 Home Screen Menu

To connect another controller, you'll first need to activate the PS4 Home Screen menu. This menu allows you to access various settings and configurations on your console. Simply press the PS button located in the center of your current controller.

Step 3: Navigating the Home Screen Menu

Once the Home Screen menu is activated, you'll be able to navigate through different options using the D-pad (directional pad) on your controller. Scroll right to find the "Settings" option, represented by a toolbox icon.

Step 4: Accessing the Bluetooth Devices Settings

After selecting the "Settings" option, a new menu will appear on the right side of your screen. Scroll down until you find "Devices," represented by a controller icon. Click on it.

Now, you'll see several device-related settings. Choose "Bluetooth Devices" to access the Bluetooth settings menu.

Step 5: Preparing the Controller for Connection

With the Bluetooth Devices menu open, get your second controller and make sure it's within range of your PS4. Press and hold the PlayStation button and the "Share" button simultaneously for a few seconds until the light on the controller starts flashing.

When the controller light begins to blink, it means it's ready to be connected to the PS4.

Step 6: Pairing the Controller with Your PS4

While the controller light is blinking, you should see its name appear on the "Bluetooth Devices" menu on your screen. Select the controller from the list.

Your PS4 will now establish a connection with the controller. Once successfully paired, the blinking light on the controller will turn a solid color, indicating a successful connection.

Step 7: Verifying the Connection

To ensure that the controller is properly connected, try pressing any button on the newly connected controller. If the light bar at the top of the controller turns on, it means the controller is ready to use.

Step 8: Enjoy Multiplayer Gaming!

With the second controller now successfully connected, you're ready to delve into exciting multiplayer gaming sessions on your PS4. Enjoy the thrill of cooperative or competitive gameplay with your friends and family!

  • Troubleshooting Tip: In case the controller doesn't connect or respond, make sure it's charged or connect it to the PS4 through a USB cable to establish the connection.

There you have it—a simple, step-by-step guide to connecting another controller to your PS4. With this knowledge in hand, you won't have to worry about any technical hiccups when it comes to multiplayer gaming sessions.
