Gyro on PC. Google Stadia controller. Special commands… and more!

The long-awaited Gyro support is finally here! Starting from reWASD 5.3.0, you can map anything to Nintendo & PS4 gyroscope on PC: mouse, keyboard, virtual controller or sophisticated combo. We know that this feature took a lot of time, but you will be certainly amazed how powerful it is now.

Long story short. Now, you will be able to use DualShock 4 gyroscope on PC to aim or move your camera, or you may treat your Switch Pro controller gyro as a steering wheel for racing games. There are two gyroscope modes we have prepared for you, so do not hesitate to try both and choose the one you like more. Also, there are plenty of additional settings hidden on the Advanced tab, so you may need to read a bit of theory before you go. This help article will be pretty useful, especially if you haven’t played with gyro before and are not familiar with yaw, roll and pitch axes that it has ;)

New devices are always a challenging thing, but we are not afraid of challenges. So, meet Google Stadia controller in reWASD 5.3.0! All your favorite features — Shortcuts, Activators, Shifts, Combos and many more — are now available for +1 amazing gamepad.

How can you use Google Stadia with reWASD? First of all, you can adjust essential gamepad controls: change the stick response or invert stick axes, swap controller buttons or mute the one you need. Secondly, you can use Google Stadia with PS4 Remote Play or PS Now if you remap it to the virtual DS4 controller. And finally, if any game doesn’t recognize your Stadia, try using virtual Xbox 360 controller or go for keyboard & mouse mappings to turn the full support on. Do not hesitate to download the latest version and try it in action.

Have you already tried each and every reWASD mapping? Well, this time you will see a bit more things that could be assigned to your controller, keyboard or mouse. Meet Commands — a new list added to the reWASD mapping section. They will allow you to Turn wireless gamepad off immediately (Yay! No need to press and hold Home button for 10 seconds anymore), Take a screenshot, Close an active task or go to Anti-boss mode in which all windows are minimized and the sound is turned off (just joking, we do not recommend playing games at work, seriously). Also, the list includes several things that will be useful for those who play with gyroscope on PC. More ones are coming soon, and here are all the commands that appeared in reWASD 5.3.0.

And finally, spring has come to reWASD! We have refreshed the way the physical devices look like now and changed the tray agent icon to a more stylish one. If you do not like our semi-transparent gamepads, feel free to switch to the previous design in Preferences. But come on, you will love them! :)
