    So for disclosure, I am asking this question to anyone.

    With the mass amount of people using converters in multiplayer games, especially competitive ones, has anyone been banned using one of these devices either by xbox, or by the game?

    Also what is your take on the problem?

    I am neither looking to purchase one of these devices or dismiss the idea on the basis that xbox seems to do nothing about it and the only way to fight fire at this point seems to be with fire ( a converter).

    :)

    I think it would hard for Microsoft to issue bans for people using adapters for Keyboard and Mouse. It a hard to detect if someone is using one without proof. I do know there are a few videos on Youtube with people using it before Microsoft approved the
    use of Keyboard and Mouse last year. And when it first was introduce they had a short list of games that you were able to use it on.

    Now you can use Keyboard and Mouse for every game including FPS games.The decision to disable K&M from a game is up to the game developer/s. For example, you can use Keyboard and Mouse in Six Siege but it is disable in rank games. However, I am pretty sure
    people use those adapters to use K&M. Now this is cheating but again it hard to proved someone is using it.

    Hi there,

    As to your question about Ban's i am not aware of anyone being ban for using a converter, however the information regarding this is not available to us, only the Enforcement Team would know this information,

    As for using a converter on the Xbox One you can plug in a keyboard and mouse directly in to the console and the keyboard will navigate the dashboard.

    There are games that already have Keyboard and Mouse Support and will allow you to play the game with the keyboard and mouse as the controller's, for example: Warframe is one of these game.

    you will however find that not all games support the keyboard and mouse feature.

    Please find extra info here:

    Your question to anyone being banned using a keyboard & mouse converters, if they are found to have used one on a game that does not support them, then yeah, suspensions or bans do happen, although Microsoft do not give out info if they have or not. It's
    also down to each game developer/publisher to suspend or ban too if their games do not support mouse or keyboard.

    My take on the problem is if every game supported keyboard and mouse, then we wouldn't have this problem. I would say for now if you want to play games with keyboard and mouse on the console, do it with the games that actually support it.

    Microsoft, please tell me how the XIM3 is legit?

    It wouldn't give you that much of an advantage anyway, this isn't true keyboard and mouse support.

    All the device does is convert keyboard and mouse input into that of a controller. This means that you are still limited to what a controller can do in the game.

    Fortnite mouse and keyboard delay

    hello Efyf,

    Thanks for coming to the forums. There are probably a lot of compatibility issues right now, being it is new and that all mouse and keyboard will be third party devices. You can view

    Mouse and keyboard
    support. Shows how to configure mouse and see if that helps.

    thanks,
