Playing CS:GO with an Xbox One controller is totally doable but expect a bit of a learning curve. First, make sure your controller is connected to your PC. You can do this via a USB cable or through Bluetooth. Next, open CS:GO and go to the game settings. Look for controller settings and enable the controller. You might want to tweak the sensitivity and button layout to find what's comfortable for you. Remember, CS:GO was primarily designed for keyboard and mouse, so it might take some time to get used to the controller.

Just plug in the controller and dive right in! CS:GO isn't really designed for controller play, so you'll be at a disadvantage against mouse and keyboard players.

I've tried playing with an Xbox One controller and honestly, it's not the best experience. You can do it, but aiming is way harder. If you're just playing casually, go for it. If you're looking to be competitive, stick to mouse and keyboard.
