I verified that my controller’s rumble worked fine, yet I had no controller rumble in Silksong. I fixed it by forcing Proton 9.0-4 in Silksong’s settings:
- Navigate to: Steam Library>Silksong>right-click>Properties>Compatibility
- Check “Force the use of a specific Steam Play compatibility tool”
- Select “Proton 9.0-4” from the dropdown.
It seems that Silksong has inherited the same controller rumble issue as Hollow Knight with the native build [1].

Yeah true, bar controller issue my game ran fine bar some frame drops but that just might be my hardware
Regardless my god this game is AMAZING is so big and all the content is such high quality
Ugh, it’s incredible. Hollow Knight has been one of my favourite games for years, and thus far my expectations for Silksong have actually been exceeded, not just met. Utterly loving it.
