Every step of is covered in this video including where to download the Minecraft Java controller mod, how to connect a controller to Minecraft 1.20.2 on PC, and even how to use a controller on PC with Minecraft Java 1.20.2 once you have everything setup. This is the complete Minecraft Java Edition controller guide, and once you are finished, you will be able to use an Xbox controller with Minecraft on PC 1.20.2!

First things first, you will need to download and install the Fabric mod loader. There is a link in the description above that goes over every single step of getting Fabric for 1.20.2, and we even go over how to fix potential issues you may be having when getting Fabric to play Minecraft Java with a controller.

After you have Fabric, we can move on to how to download the Minecraft Java controller mod, MidnightControls. This is the mod that actually adds controller support to Minecraft Java Edition. There is a link to download MidnightControls in the description above that will take you to the MidnightControls download page.

On the download page, click on the “Versions” button and find the 1.20.2 version. Click the download icon next to this version, and it will start downloading right away. May need to keep or save the file depending on your browser.

You will also need to get the FabricAPI. This is an API mod that is required to connect a controller to Minecraft Java Edition 1.20.2. There is a link to download it in the description above. Just make sure you are getting the 1.20.2 version of the FabricAPI.

With Fabric installed and MidnightControls and the FabricAPI downloaded, we can finally move on to how to install the Minecraft controller mod installed in 1.20.2. To do this, open the Minecraft launcher, and click on the “Installations” tab. Hover over the Fabric installation, and click the folder icon that appears.

This will open your .minecraft folder. Open your “mods” folder, and if there isn’t a mods folder, just create one! Then, move the FabricAPI and MidnightControls into the mods folder.

Now, go back to Minecraft and play it using the Fabric installation. Once you are in-game the Minecraft controller mod will be active. Connect your controller to your computer, and Minecraft will recognize it automatically. You can edit your controller settings in the Minecraft options and change a ton of different stuff, but by default the controls are very similar to Minecraft Bedrock.

You can also use a PlayStation controller with Minecraft Java Edtion and even a Switch controller or SteamDeck with Minecraft Java 1.20.2 using the MidnightControls mod. There are a ton of different controllers that are supported. Basically, if you can connect the controller or gamepad to your computer, you can use it with Minecraft Java Edition 1.20.2!
