If you have a PS5 and are a fan of shooter games, you will surely know that the console controller is very limiting when it comes to competing. It’s always better to play with a mouse and a wireless gaming keyboard, just like on the computer. These types of games require precision and speed that cannot be achieved with the controller.
PC peripherals are the only way to be truly competitive in the game. And it’s not only shooters: a wireless gaming keyboard combined with a gaming mouse also offers big advantages in strategy games and MMORPGs. We’ve brought together the best of the PlayStation 5 and the best of the PC, and now we’re ready to fight for victory!
How to connect a wireless gaming keyboard to a PS5
The PS5 features multiple high-speed A and C type USB ports at both the front and rear. You can use wired peripherals if you want, but this may be uncomfortable if you are some way from the console. For example, if you are sitting on the couch at home and have the PS5 connected to your TV, you may find that the cables are too short. That’s why we recommend using a wireless gaming keyboard and mouse. Connecting them to the console couldn’t be easier. Not all peripherals are compatible with the PlayStation 5, so be sure to check them first. For example, ES Gaming’s ESG K4 KOMPACT-WIRELESS gamer keyboard is compatible with the PS5, as well as other consoles such as the PS4, XBOX, and XBOX S and X.

If you opt for a wireless gaming keyboard, then simply plug the USB receiver in the console and follow the steps to pair it with the device. Peripherals such as the ESG K4 KOMPACT-WIRELESS gaming keyboard feature Plug & Play RF technology, meaning the device can be set up without having to run any software. Maximum convenience!
