5 minute hack: how to use the Xbox One Elite controller with your PS4 – Stuff

That’s it, you’re good to go. Plug your ChronusMAX Plus into the PS4’s USB port, then plug the four-port USB hub into the other end.

Plug the Xbox One controller into port one of the hub, and the PS4 controller into port four. Fire up your PS4 using its power button, and boom – you’re defying the very fabric of the universe by using an Xbox One Elite controller with a PlayStation 4. Feels naughty, doesn’t it?

If you find that the touchpad shortcut doesn’t work, just tap the button on the ChronusMax Plus to switch to the correct Gamepack slot.

For example, if you installed the PS4 Gamepack – which offers touchpad support – into the first Gamepack slot, pressing the button once will display a ‘1’ on the ChronusMAX’s display, and everything will work perfectly.

I know it sounds confusing if you’re reading this ahead of setting it all up, but it’ll make sense, I promise.

Once it’s all sorted, everything will work as normal each time you turn up the console, making the 5-10 minutes of initial setup more than worth it.

Enjoy your newly discovered level of control, and keep on gunning for those headshots.
