Controller Mapping Templates

Overview

Controller Mapping Templates are useful for game developers that want an easy way to build images of controller mappings. Using these templates for your project can be as simple as editing the text and exporting to an image.

These templates can be used in-game, in manuals, on README documents, or anywhere else you want to show players how to use your game with a controller. All elements have a white backdrop to allow for placement on light or dark surfaces.

Currently Supported:

Xbox Wireless Controller

DualSense Controller

Switch Pro Controller

Generic Gamepads

Nintendo 64 Controller
