Using Adaptive Controllers on the PS5: Cronus Zen - Update: This method no longer works with PS5

[@iifallenii2708]

Had it working perfectly for ages with an Xbox Series X controller on ps5. On the Cronus Zen app, I pressed reset MnK settings as I wanted them to go back to the default ones if I ever wanted to use MnK, however, now when I plug in any controller at all into the Zen, it only connects for a second then doesn’t do anything. The controller stays on, but no input works.

There was a new update to the PS5 system released yesterday on January 24th. If your PS5 updated, the Cronus Zen is no longer compatible until Cronus Zen is able to fix the issue. The update impacted multiple adapters. The only solution currently for using alternative controllers on the PS5 without remote play after the new PS5 update is the Beloader Besavior adapter.

Please see the notes below the video for updated steps from Cronus Zen regarding set up instructions, as they occasionally update their steps for set up.

Hey does this method work on the PS five slim because the last one did not I do see that the steps are different in this video it is

[@gamingreadapted]

Yes, in the video the PS5 slim was used, so it should work using the steps in this video.

Does this adapter need to be connected to the pc/laptop and to the Xbox? What about if you don't have an xbox

[@gamingreadapted]

The adapter only needs to be connected to the console once it is set up. You will need a PC in order to update it though.

Will this work on the older zen?

[@gamingreadapted]

Yes, as long as it has the latest update.

i really thought my cronus zen wasnt working anymore and i did everything you told me to do and it wasnt working then i see the description and im just angry at sony for making it difficult for people with disabilities to play a game

[@rollinthunder14]

hi fella i had same issue but this set up still works viv remote play with a pc only difference is the cable from top of zen goes into your PC instead and you can still play via tv screen
