What NexusPad is
NexusPad is a Windows suite for controller remapping and aim assistance in competitive PC games. It accepts Xbox, DualSense and DualShock 4 input, then can output keyboard-and-mouse controls or create an Xbox 360 or DualShock 4 virtual controller through ViGEm. Mouse handling offers Windows History, Raw Input and Classic cursor engines. ADS Precision v2 shapes scoped aim by reducing output, while the product lists more than 15 aim-assist modes. Anti-recoil tools provide per-weapon vertical and horizontal compensation, recorded-pattern learning and hotkey profile switching. Twelve Call of Duty macro presets are included, and custom macros can use precise timing. Profiles can be unlimited, imported, exported and switched automatically per game. NexusPad lists presets for Warzone, Fortnite, Apex Legends, Valorant and MW3. Monthly access is $29.99 a month; lifetime access is 199.99 USD once.
