"How to Enable PS4 Button Layout | Fix for PS4 Button Prompts

By うちはイタチ

Many players connect PS4 controllers to their PCs but still play with the Xbox button layout. In this guide, I’ll show you how to make the game display the PS4 button prompts, no matter what controller you're using.

Few people know that when the game was released in June 2015, it had native support for the PS4 controller. After it was pulled from sale, the developers took Batman back for improvements.

Later, Steam added native support for the PS4 gamepad, but the DualShock v2 still shows up as an Xbox One controller.

After the re-release, native support was broken, although traces of the PS4 layout remained. You can notice this when launching the game without a connected DS4 in the controller settings.

Thanks to the fact that the developers initially added support and didn’t completely remove it during the re-release, we can now restore proper button icons.

📂 Instruction
Go to the game folder:
```
D:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Batman Arkham Knight\BmGame\Localization\RUS
```
We are looking for the file 'PC.RUS'.

Open it using Notepad++ [notepad-plus-plus.org] or any other text editor — just not the standard Notepad.

Look for the section [ControllerTags_Xbox]:

```
LabelHold=(to hold)
LabelRelease=(let go)
LabelTap=(to press)
PAD_A=
PAD_B=
PAD_BACK=
PAD_BACK_360=
PAD_DPAD=
PAD_DPADD=
PAD_DPADL=
PAD_DPADLR=
PAD_DPADR=
PAD_DPADU=
PAD_DPADUD=
PAD_LB=
PAD_LEFTSTICK=
PAD_LEFTSTICK_CLICK=
PAD_LT=
PAD_QuickBatclaw={PAD_LT}+{PAD_Y}
PAD_QuickExplosiveGel={PAD_LT}+{PAD_X}
PAD_QuickFreezeBlast={PAD_RT}+{PAD_RT}
PAD_QuickREC=={PAD_LT}+{PAD_B}
PAD_RB=
PAD_RIGHTSTICK=
PAD_RIGHTSTICK_CLICK=
PAD_RT=
PAD_START=
PAD_START_360=
PAD_X=
PAD_XDark=
PAD_Y=
PADPkg=A
```
And replace it with:

```
LabelHold=(to hold)
LabelRelease=(let go)
LabelTap=(to press)
PAD_A=
PAD_B=
PAD_BACK=
PAD_DPAD=
PAD_DPADD=
PAD_DPADL=
PAD_DPADLR=
PAD_DPADR=
PAD_DPADU=
PAD_DPADUD=
PAD_LB=
PAD_LEFTSTICK=
PAD_LEFTSTICK_CLICK=
PAD_LT=
PAD_QuickBatclaw={PAD_LT}+{PAD_Y}
PAD_QuickExplosiveGel={PAD_LT}+{PAD_X}
PAD_QuickFreezeBlast={PAD_RT}+{PAD_RT}
PAD_QuickREC={PAD_LT}+{PAD_B}
PAD_RB=
PAD_RIGHTSTICK=
PAD_RIGHTSTICK_CLICK=
PAD_RT=
PAD_START=
PAD_X=
PAD_XDark=
PAD_Y=
PADPkg=B
```
Save the file.
If you did everything correctly, you should now have the PS4 button layout.
