Overall this product looks nice. I’m a console gamer looking for a competitive edge in games like call of duty and rainbow six seige. This review has sold me on the product and I’m going to purchase it
What PC gamers don't understand is that us console players aren't looking for PC mouse and keyboard accuracy, we're only looking for something that'll let us hit what we're looking at without aim assist. If this is more accurate than a joystick then count me in.
Just bought yesterday. For non pc gamer, I feel awesome. Absolutely improved my aim, because I'm not pc gamer I still bad. I go to hori official website and download software from there, their also have several settings for Battlefield 1 & Rainbow 6, Call Of Duty is coming soon, I wish for Titanfall 2.
Hey, would it be possible for you to test it out on various PC games to see if they'll actually read the analog input from the analog stick? I used to have something sort of like this but I found a lot of games couldn't read the analog stick input as actually analog if the game was set up to read it as keyboard/mouse contols, but if it was set up to be read as a controller input, the analog input worked, but none of the keyes did. I'm thinking about buying it but I want to make sure that at least some of the games I play will actually support the analog input and keyes at the same time, and nobody who did a review has tested this.
This might be a tough question. On Razer products I can adjust DPI on the mouse or keyboard if I bind it there. Is this true for HORI keyboard and mouse?
I too am finding that setting up specifically for overwatch is time consuming. I'm glad it has profile switches because so I can adjust for hitscan characters and those that are not. I'd love to talk to you about this in game maybe? Find out how you adjusted the deadzone settings and stuff. :-) hmu
For Overwatch and setting up the mouse I have it at default hardware sensitivity (the mouse itself) and in-game sensitivity is about 80 horizontal and 65 vertical. I think I also turned down mouse acceleration to one less than the default.
so annoying... i wish if sony was going to endorse this product that they would update the system to take the controls directly instead of emulating the stick... seems like something that should be able to be done in the system programming instead of relying on software support...
Hey your crosshair movements looks alot smoother than mine, is there a way you can tell me what your settings are on the keyboard because i tried alot but I can't get it right at all
The actual device settings are at the default, I turned horizontal sensitivity to like 80 and vertical to I think 65 on Overwatch. Try that out, if not play with the sensitivity buttons on the mouse itself
Great Review man! I got mine recently. I have a few questions with this controller. 1. Is it compatible with every FPS on PS4? because I tried it on Deux Ex and COD Advance warfare and guess what... It doesn't work. Did I miss anything? 2. Do you have a link to a copy of that Manual because I ordered mine from Japan and it came with a Japanese manual. haha sucks. Thanking you in advance if you answer m questions.
1: I don't have Advanced Warfare but just tried it on Deus Ex and it worked perfect. Make sure it's the primary controller 2: Try getting in touch with HORI somehow, don't have one
Yeah. Haha. Thanks for that. Its working on my games now. Tried it on Rise of the Tomb Raider. Mouse (right analog stick) doesnt work. Haha. Was hoping it would work with 3rd person shooters too.
Dalton Kennedy you dont need this for fortnite . Fortnite does support mouse and keyboard so just plug in your normal mouse and keyboard on your ps4 by usb and open fortnite it will work
i have a question i hope someone here knows i was using this product last night then i reset the keys using the assign switch now the exclamation is blinking on it i cant use the mouse the keyborad is working but now that the light is blinking i cant use the mouse does anybody know a fix
I seriously want a Keyboard Mouse controller for PS4 but would never buy one where the mouse is using acceleration and simulates a right thumb vs true 1:1 scrolling.
Gmon3y 142 well you don't have to use acceleration. You can turn it off. I find it helpful though to achieve more smoothness by turning it down to nearly off.
El_Twin Hey I used this on battlefield 1 and it felt amazing, for some reason it did feel 1:1 but for some reason its not the same for overwatch. I do need to look into my sensitivity in game and DPI, deadzones, mouse acceleration, and A.D.S sensitivities which can be adjusted on the keyboard I will do more tests and playing around and try to get back to you.
David C have you trouble setting it up? There are so many little tweaks. It's difficult discussing them here. Reducing dpi and adjusting other parts can make huge differences.
you should never have to reduce dpi so much, nah, my problem is the fact that regardless of setting there's always a degree of acceleration and deceleration, it's a peeve of mine, i like a mouse that has consistent movement speed, not fast and then slow, it makes for too much inconsistency.
can i change the mouse in tac4 with a PC mouse? will it be 1:1 or a little bit better or the same? guys please i need some help and sorry about my language
You want exactly what I mean, you playing against controllers not of players! It cheating due the the precision of the mouse. Unless there are filters on the match where everyone is playing with the mouse, its cheating

Could you give a website when i can download software for battlefield-1. This www.hori.jp/products/p4/p4_tac_m1/?
Mateusz Mateusz www.hori.jp/products/p4/p4_tac_m1_US/#banner
Gk Hoker do you have to download the software or can you change it in game
What is your setup for overwatch??
I hope they group the players who uses this on seperate servers so the rest of us that like fair play doesnt have to suffer.

When using it on PC it worked perfect for you though?
I need a new K+M anyways, might aswell get one that works for ps4 too.
Ryx Yep! You can just disconnect the mouse and use it with a regular keyboard. It's been doing me good in Titanfall 2 and I dig it.
You might have acceleration left on which is annoying in FPS games
I want to play third person games like the new spider man game horizon zero dawn and blood borne using hori tac

Hey man quick question does it plug into front USB or back aux port ??!!!
Front USB
Help me..i bought one..and cant connect to the ps4. Is like not function at all. What should i do
so annoying... i wish if sony was going to endorse this product that they would update the system to take the controls directly instead of emulating the stick... seems like something that should be able to be done in the system programming instead of relying on software support...
QUESTION: Is the acceleration also there if i use it mainly for the PC? Maybe missed that info if its already given, my apologies then.
DracoDrakie it does have separate acceleration you can adjust
how do you adjust acceleration? I'm thinking of buying one and this seems to be the only problem people bring up.
in overwatch can you also change it in overwatch like th fn would be like l1 and for instance r1 the l1 so u have the pc setup

Rasen Bran
Is this thing just plug and play or did it require any particular software? thanks!
I just plugged mine right in to the PS4 and it worked
Yeah. Haha. Thanks for that. Its working on my games now. Tried it on Rise of the Tomb Raider. Mouse (right analog stick) doesnt work. Haha. Was hoping it would work with 3rd person shooters too.
How well will this work on fortnite? I wanna build faster and have precise aim... never used keys before!!! Is it worth it?
Dalton Kennedy you dont need this for fortnite . Fortnite does support mouse and keyboard so just plug in your normal mouse and keyboard on your ps4 by usb and open fortnite it will work
is it another way to change the mouse? cause i have some gaming mouse and want to use my gaming mouse, not this official mouse
Does this just plug directly into your ps4 or do you need a keyboard emulator for it to work?
Winnie The Pooh you plug the mouse into the keypad and the keypad directly into your PS4
So do you need a xim4 to play overwatch or just this keyboard and mouse?
Lolism Cerverz keyboard and mouse XIM 4 is an alternative to this hori device
Hi, is this product fully compatible for the PC as well?
Yes.
+Rasen Bran With that said, if I play it on the PC will I get true keyboard and mouse performance or its still gonna be the same on the PS4?
Rasen is officially legit
Has anyone used the keypad on PC? Does it work flawlessly?
can you use any mouse or gotta use the standard? and is this any good in third person games like the division I like to hip fire ?
It has a USB port, you can put any mouse in!
Drunk Pirate is it for sure we can use any mouse?
Mark Al Mourany Yes!
Drunk Pirate does it feel better with another mouse or the same?
i have a question i hope someone here knows i was using this product last night then i reset the keys using the assign switch now the exclamation is blinking on it i cant use the mouse the keyborad is working but now that the light is blinking i cant use the mouse does anybody know a fix
thesuspect1234 Try getting in touch with Hori customer support maybe? I wish I could help but no idea of the solution here
Is the a curser
something something weapon to surpass metal gear something
can you turn off acceleration?
Brookadnb yes you can
I seriously want a Keyboard Mouse controller for PS4 but would never buy one where the mouse is using acceleration and simulates a right thumb vs true 1:1 scrolling.
Gmon3y 142 well you don't have to use acceleration. You can turn it off. I find it helpful though to achieve more smoothness by turning it down to nearly off.
xSw eD you probably want to play with aim assist, the dpi, any acceleration modified, and things like the dual zone in ingame settings
xSw eD I'm terrible at checking my email lol.
Whould you buy a Xim 4 or this tac4pro
I've never used a Xim 4 so no idea.
does it have to be plugged into the ps4?
Yes but the cord is super long, it wasn't a problem for me
Rasen Bran Gotcha, how long is super long? Was hoping to play from my couch, thanks for the review btw
Thelusive I just measured it, it's roughly 9 feet. Hope that helps!
Have you played it with battlefield 1?
El_Twin Hey I used this on battlefield 1 and it felt amazing, for some reason it did feel 1:1 but for some reason its not the same for overwatch. I do need to look into my sensitivity in game and DPI, deadzones, mouse acceleration, and A.D.S sensitivities which can be adjusted on the keyboard I will do more tests and playing around and try to get back to you.
Thanks man!!! 👍
Hey ! Do you have news ?
Is it worth buying it?
I want to play battlefield with it, its good ?? for sniper ...
Karemba Payet I bought a XIM4 and I think it's your best option. Also recommended by other PC players.
El Twin thx dude, it's easy to use xim4?
is this one have a headphone jack?
Yes, left-hand side of the keyboard
+Rasen Bran thanks for the respond appreciated.
any noticeable input lag on it?
David C I've noticed none. The slightest bump sends me flying.
i've also noticed, it's shit, got it, and i don't like it, but it's better than a controller, that's bout it. :P
David C have you trouble setting it up? There are so many little tweaks. It's difficult discussing them here. Reducing dpi and adjusting other parts can make huge differences.
you should never have to reduce dpi so much, nah, my problem is the fact that regardless of setting there's always a degree of acceleration and deceleration, it's a peeve of mine, i like a mouse that has consistent movement speed, not fast and then slow, it makes for too much inconsistency.
Does the hori tac pro work on PS4 pro?
can i change the mouse in tac4 with a PC mouse? will it be 1:1 or a little bit better or the same? guys please i need some help and sorry about my language
pretty sure they could fix the acceleration issue with an update to the game. I only want it so i can smurf overwatch and spank some peasants.
no they wont update the game in order to allow the keyboard to work as Overwatch wants players to use controllers...
But its a PC game. I guess they dont want people to be able to buy an advantage on console, but it may come one day.
i could of told you it improves your aim for free , your using your wrist not your thumb sticks to aim hahaha
do not buy this. it doesn't do well when aiming
thats cheating
wayne chapman it's cheating? How is it cheating? FPS games were made for keyboard and mouse. Even Sony officially licenses this product
You want exactly what I mean, you playing against controllers not of players! It cheating due the the precision of the mouse. Unless there are filters on the match where everyone is playing with the mouse, its cheating
wayne chapman It's not cheating you can go get it too
