In order to set up controller support yourself in Battlebit Remastered, you have to go into Steam settings. From here, go into the controller options, where you can now change and rebind your own inputs.

Plug in your controller and make your own inputs for the game with W being the left analogue stick forward, A being the left analogue stick to the left, etc. Once you have done all of this, save your own settings and boot up the game. It should now work with controller.
