# DS4Windows

Like those other DS4 tools, but sexier.

DS4Windows is an extract anywhere program that allows you to get the best
DualShock 4 experience on your PC. By emulating an Xbox 360 controller, many
more games are accessible. Other input controllers are also supported including the
DualSense, Switch Pro, and JoyCon controllers (**first party hardware only**).

This project is a fork of the work of Jays2Kings.
