PowerA, Hori, Razer and other controllers on PC
Many PC games only understand the Xbox controller. With OpenController open, the PowerA, Hori, Razer and other controllers show up in your games as an Xbox 360 controller with their own player number, and the original is hidden so the game doesn't see the same controller twice.

- 2Connect the controller by cable, Bluetooth or its receiver. It shows up in OpenController's window, drawn in its own shape.
- 3Click it to set what each extra button does: an Xbox button, a key or a recorded macro, with a profile per game if you want.
- 4Open your game and play. It sees an Xbox 360 controller.
