AFAIK, WK2-EFL is also supporting Gamepad api for now.

You can follow along in https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=134076.
The first glaring thing I noticed is how out of date the current code is. The Gamepad code currently in the tree has gone over 3 years without any real development.
In the meantime the working draft for the Gamepad API [1] is much different than what’s in our tree. Also at least 1 other engine (Mozilla) has shipped support matching the newer API. I plan to completely break what’s currently in the tree in a non-backwards compatible way. Grep’ing the tree I conclude that this is okay because:
- Only EFL and GTK have Gamepad support code
- The code only supports in-process WebKit1
- GTK has it disabled
- EFL has it enabled, but has also committed to dropping WK1 support
If I am wrong and somebody has a compelling reason to keep supporting the version of the API that exists in the tree today, please contact me here or in the bugzilla. *SOON*.
Thanks!
~Brady
