    Yeah, I do that.

    if you are using Steam, it is super simple. You just need to connect your controller via Bluetooth or cable, go in Steam in Big Picture Mode and enable controller usage and it should work.

    on Epic I at least had used my Switch controller on GTA V but i would need to see if there was any configuration needed


    edit: You are talking about the Switch Pro Controller, Right?

    if you need info on how to use the joy cons as one controller…. That is possible but way more complex

    Well. That will be complex as well. Epic doesn’t support the Switch controller naturally, but there is a workaround, where you need to launch the Epic game from Steam (you can create an account and download Steam without paying anything)

    here is a website where it’s described:

    Gamepad not working? Here's how to use the Nintendo Switch Pro controller to play games purchased through the Epic Games Store.


    it did work for me on GTA V at least.
