    Gyroscope:
    DualShock 4, Dualsense, Nintendo Pro Controller or Joycons, some 8BitDo models and some other third-parties.

    Touchpads:
    Outside of Valve, really only Sony controllers, but I find the touchpad to be way too out of reach to use for anything that isn’t quick shortcuts.


    There is a third-party controller called “DarkWalker ShotPad” that packs both Gyro and a big ass touchpad, but it only emulates a Keyboard and Mouse (so no Steam Input) and people online complain the touchpad is awfully low resolution so…

      I bought this controller, and used it for around two weeks, and its really great. Despite being cheap, it is quite good for its money. And having a touchpad with gyroscope really makes a big difference for playing pc keyboard+mouse focused games.

        Hey, nice to hear it’s working out for you!
        I might try picking one up for myself…

      Darkwalker shotpad actually looks interesting, and is actually cheap. Despite not having a controller input, i wanted a controller with gyro and trackpads specifically to play games with no controller support.
