Download InputConfig on the Mac App StoreThe Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth layout is built into InputConfig, free on the Mac App Store. You don't have to make an account, there are no subscriptions, and nothing is locked. Optimized for Apple silicon.

On a Mac: No Mac version. Xbox Cloud Gaming carries it in its US library (checked September 2026) and plays in a browser on the Mac, and it also streams from a Windows PC you own. Both normally pass a controller to the game's own scheme.

Yes, Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth plays on a Mac with a controller, through Xbox Cloud Gaming in a browser or a stream from your own PC. When the stream misses your pad, this layout plays it. Ichiban's game is turn-based, so latency never costs you a fight, and it is menus, so confirm and cancel are on the triggers and on the face buttons, for whichever your hand prefers.

The layout, control by control

Click a control. Labels:

How the layout thinks

  • Move and look. The left stick moves and the right stick orbits the camera, which is the mouse. The left stick click runs (Shift).
  • Confirm and cancel. Confirm (Enter) is the right trigger and the bottom face button. Cancel (Escape) is the left trigger and the right face button.
  • Act. Action and interact (E) are the left face button, and the playlist and party display (Y) the top.
  • Camera. The left bumper is first-person view (F), the right bumper resets the camera (R), and the right stick click resizes the minimap (G).
  • D-pad. Up is party chat (1), down mounts the Street Surfer (Q), and left and right step through the playlist (X and V).
  • Menus. The map (Tab) is on Create and the pause menu (F1) on Options.

Confirm and cancel are on both the triggers and the face buttons, so any grip works.

Tune it

  • Skip. Put the cutscene skip key on a chord.
  • Camera. Lower the camera rows from 18 and 14 to about 14 and 10.

A calmer camera suits a game you spend mostly walking around Hawaii.

If the stream passes your controller

Xbox Cloud Gaming nearly always hands the game your pad, and the game has full controller support. Keep this preset off then, or every press reaches the game twice. If confirm works with the preset off, Ichiban already has your pad.

If your controller is not working in Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth

When Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth does not react to your controller on a Mac, climb this ladder, smallest step first:

  1. Check that the Mac sees the controller. Open the gamepad tester and press a button. If nothing lights up there, the problem is the connection, and a controller that is connected but not working covers that first.
  2. Press a button after the stream has started. A stream only picks up a controller that is paired with the Mac, and a browser shows a controller to a page only after a button press. Start Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth, then press any button. Streaming from your own PC has its own checks, in how to stream PC games to a Mac with a controller.
  3. Play it from keys. If Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth still ignores the pad, activate this layout. It sends the keyboard and mouse controls Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth already reads. Turn the game's own controller option off while it runs, or a press can arrive twice. The layout works whether or not Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth ever sees the controller.

Get it in two clicks

  1. Get InputConfig free on the Mac App Store, open it, and click Smart Preset Maker on the welcome screen.
  2. Search for Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth and pick it. The layout is created as a preset in your sidebar, named and ready.
  3. Press Activate. Every row can be changed afterwards: the editor's Scan button rebinds any control the moment you touch it.

To check the controller itself first, the gamepad tester shows every button and stick live in your browser.

Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth controls: every button and the key it sends

The Sends column is Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth's default keyboard and mouse controls, as this layout expects them. If you changed a key in the game's settings, change the same row in InputConfig.

Questions

Does Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth run on a Mac?

Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth does not run natively on a Mac. Xbox Cloud Gaming streams it in a Mac browser, and a Windows PC you own can stream it too. Both normally pass a controller. This layout covers a stream that does not see the pad.

Is Infinite Wealth better with a controller or keyboard?

A controller, for most people. It is turn-based battles, menus, and a free camera, and the game has full controller support. The keyboard works, since nothing is timed to the frame. On a Mac, this layout gives a pad the keyboard controls when a stream does not pass it through.

Why is my controller not working in Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth on a Mac?

First check the Mac itself sees the controller, with the gamepad tester. If it does and Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth still ignores it, activate the Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth layout in InputConfig, which sends the game's keyboard and mouse controls from the controller.

Can I play Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth on an M1 Mac or a MacBook Air?

Yes, through a stream. Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth runs on the other end, on a cloud service or your own PC, so the Mac only plays the video and sends your input. An M1 MacBook Air streams it like any other Mac.
