How to Play with a Controller

Connect Through Bluetooth

You can use an Xbox controller by connecting it to your device through Bluetooth. Once your controller and device are connected, you can automatically use it to play Rainbow Six Mobile.

Note that the controller only works for gameplay. This means that you will still need to manually navigate through menus with your device's screen.
