What controllers does DualShock Calibration GUI support?

  • Sony DualSense.
  • Sony DualSense Edge.
  • PlayStation VR2 controller support as shown by the public interface.

Calibration is not a stick-drift repair

The source page makes an important distinction: stick drift is caused by worn mechanical parts, so replacing the damaged joystick is the real repair path. Calibration may help after a replacement, but calibrating a worn controller can make the result worse and may not be reversible.

Use the DualShock calibration flow carefully

Before making a permanent calibration, the interface recommends trying a temporary calibration first. Keep the controller battery connected and charged, and keep the USB connection secure while saving changes. Motistry summarizes the warning so readers can make an informed decision; it does not provide a guarantee of safe hardware operation.
