8BitDo Ultimate 2 is getting full Steam Input support for more buttons
One of my gripes with my original 8BitDo Ultimate 2.4G Controller is that Steam Input cannot see the additional buttons on the back, but it seems that with the latest firmware updates to the 8BitDo Ultimate 2 that 8BitDo are solving the situation.
Too bad you won’t be able to buy them in the US: https://www.polygon.com/gaming/566642/8bitdo-pauses-us-shipments-trump-tariffs
8bit makes really great controllers 👌🏻👌🏻 Good quality with reasonable price, at least if you don't live in a country run by a dictator 🫣🫢
Now we just need their software and firmware updates to run in Linux native (or even wine, I'm not that picky). Excellent controllers for the cost.
I thought fwupd supported 8bitdo controllers already.
They do: https://fwupd.org/lvfs/devices/
Sweet. Already had one for steam deck because of the gyro. This is a nice addition.
I’m still holding out hope for a proper Steam Controller 2 with Deck control parity.
Awesome, I've been wanting to get some new controllers for my deck - without having those back buttons working it seemed pointless.
It's not really pointless, just because you can easily remap them to replace the abomination that is stick clicking.
Bearer of bad news.
