Is Controller Support Coming?

That’s the good news: controller support is 100% confirmed. A player asked the question on Steam and the developer was quick to respond that it’s coming. You heard it here first (well, second).

Now that we’ve got all that out of the way, he’s how to set up controller support for Torchlight Infinite on each platform.

PC/Steam

Controller setup easy mode. Steam has a baked in control mapper that lets you map any keyboard or mouse presses to your favourite controllers. Here’s how to use it:

  • Launch Steam
  • Go to ‘Settings’
  • Click on ‘Controller’

Here, you can configure either a generic setup that will work across all of your games, or a game-specific setup that will only initiate when you’re playing that game on Steam.

You will have to configure which controllers you want this to support, which currently includes Xbox, PlayStation, and Switch controllers, as well as a wide variety of third party options.

Lastly, if you’re using a Steam Deck, this process is an absolute breeze. Simply load up the game and you can either use a pre-created community controller option (note: there might not be any available just yet given the game’s recent launch), a Steam pre-built option that you can tweak, or you can just create your own on the fly.

We recommend the latter.

Android

Mobile is a little more complex than PC, unless you’re lucky enough to own an Ayn Odin. That’s an Android gaming handheld that comes complete with a button mapper, for those not in the know.

Alternatively, the two best are Mantis Gamepad Pro and Octopus, both of which let you map screen taps to buttons on your controller.

However, they have been known to be pretty finicky, and straight up just don’t work some of the time. You’ve been warned.

iOS

Apple is a lot more strict than Microsoft or Google when it comes to doing anything that your iOS device doesn’t already do. Sadly, that same is true for controller mapping.

We’ve done some hardcore research, and basically found no reliable method of mapping a controller to touch on iOS. As a result, we’re officially labelling it as: not a thing.

Many of you might suggest jailbreaking your device. This allows you to do anything, but we’re not going to suggest that. Not only does it void your warranty, but it also makes your device more vulnerable.
