in Gran Turismo
Hi,
iam new to Fanatec Hardware and just ordered my Wheelbase DD1 with the Clubsport Formular V2.5X Steering Wheel and Clubsport Pedals V3.
Will i be able to use this on my PS4 for Gran Turismo and for the coming Grand Turismo on PS5?
Or do i need another Steering Wheel?
If yes which one should i buy?
Thanks
Markus

No.
The DD1 is NOT Playstation compatible as described in the webshop compatibility description.
No Steering wheel can make it playstation compatible, you need a playstation compatible wheel BASE!
To expand on what Maurice said, console compatibility relies on devices having certain "chips" that make them compatible with one console or the other. Playstation compatibility comes from a chip in the wheel *base*, while Xbox compatibility comes from a chip in the wheel itself.
As an example, you could get the new GT DD Pro (with Playstation compatibility in the base) and then purchase a McLaren GT3 v2 wheel (which has Xbox compatibility) and you'd have a rig that can work on either platform as well as PC.
Ok thanks understood!
Not a big tragedy as my main focus which i bought it for is racing on PC (F1 2021, Assetto Corsa, IRacing...)
Thanks für your help!
The cheapest solution to make your Setup compatible is using the Drive Hub by Collective Minds.
To use it @PS5 you also will need a wired PS4 Controller Licensed by Sony (look for Horipad Mini).
I've the same config, DD1 + Clubsport Formula V2.5 X + CSP V3, this combination works great in GT Sport @PS5!
