  1. Mechanical Keyboards and compatibility on series X.


    Hi, I am looking to get a mechanical keyboard for the games that I play which support keyboard and mouse A friend told me I need to make sure the Keyboard is compatible as quite a lot of them aren't. Is this true on the series X? I've never run into this issue on previous-gen as long as the keyboard is connected through USB. Can anybody help? I don't want to buy something if it's not compatible with my series X. I will use it on PC too but currently, I have a GPU on pre-order and it's been delayed for a while now.

    :)

    Mechanical Keyboards and compatibility on series X.

    Hello Rekt! I'm Claus, an Independent Microsoft Community Consultant for Xbox! Glad to be able to help you!

    Any keyboards that are USB and don't need any sort of exclusive driver on Windows 10/11 will work on the Xbox One/Series X|S consoles. You will need a PC if you want to customize some of the keyboard's features, some of them need a specific software to change some of it's functionality. like LED color, for example.
    Hi thanks for the response this is good to know Do you have any knowledge about Razer keyboards like the razer huntsman?

    Keyboard and mouse

    Good morning! As long as you are talking about the Series S or X, then according to sources yes, almost any Keyboard or Mouse will be suitable. Please see below:

    "The USB transmitters that ship alongside wireless gaming mice and keyboards handle all the data communication between your peripherals and your console. This means that almost all wireless keyboards and mice will work with Xbox Series X and S."

    There is a very informative article on the devices here:

    https://dotesports.com/hardware/news/how-to-use-keyboard-and-mouse-on-xbox-series-x-or-s

    Of course, that being said, devices made specifically for the system will have more finely tuned compatibility.

    Hopefully this helps!
