Controller keeps disconnecting during intense gameplay sessions

Hello, Emmet Chakkalakal.

We appreciate you posting in Microsoft Community.



Benefiting from your detailed description, I noticed that your Xbox controller disconnects frequently during gameplay.

I'm glad to have the opportunity to help you with this issue.



Based on past experience, potential problems with the console and controller are the primary direction for troubleshooting.

Some wireless signal interference may also cause this problem.



Here are some initial troubleshooting and cross-testing steps:

Remove your controller from your Xbox console first.

Then you can do a Power cycle:

- Press and hold the Xbox button on the front of the console for approximately 10 seconds.

- After the console has shut down, unplug the power cord and wait 30 seconds.

- Also remove all peripherals like Storage Expansion Cards, UBD HDDs, battery charging stations, etc.

- Plug the console back in and turn it on by pressing the Xbox button.

Then try re-add the Xbox controller.



Also, to troubleshoot your controller, you can connect it to PC, and try using a wired connection on console to see if it disconnects during gameplay.



Finally, can you tell me in which stage of which game this problem mainly occurs? Is this the only game where this problem occurs?



Feel free to share with me your results after performing these steps and more information, I will help you further based on your update.

Thank you for your cooperation.



Best Regards.

Hi there Outcast,

Thanks for reaching out. To better assist, I would like to clarify the issue:

• Are you trying to keep the controller connected?
• Does the controller disconnect during gameplay?
• Have your tried using batteries in the controller?
• What are you trying to do with the controller?

Let us know, so we may know how to further assist.

During first 15min of today's gameplay I had 2 disconnections then I removed glass table...no disconnections for another 1 hour, coincidence?

I will make another tests and keep u posted.
