Any multi-engine aircraft needs rudder input if an engine fails which includes airbus. The main difference with airbus is that you don't need to arm wrestle the side stick to control the roll when you put the rudder in.
You don't in any Boeing either - If you are doing it right, all you have to do is a little bit of aileron and apply enough rudder to keep it all straight. The fine tuning is simply enough rudder to keep the controls (aileron input) level.
It's very easy.
