  1. New Xbox controller works on steam, but not the Xbox PC app?


    I got a new xbox controller so I could use it wireless with the Xbox app on pc, but it doesn't seem to work. When I try Gears 5 or The Outer Worlds my controller does nothing. But if I start a game on steam it works immediately, any help would be great.

    :)

    Microsoft Wireless Headset does not work volume ring between voice chat and game on PC (connected via Xbox adapter)

    Xbox one

    There is no official steam app for xbox as it is a PC client. This wouldn't work.

    Other controller than the xbox 360 or one for playing

    Hi guys, I bought an xbox-one controller. The problem is microsoft games don't take steam settings of controllers, and the switch pro controller work only with steam on pc.

    Thanks for the help.

    Can I map the microsoft adaptive controller for PC gaming?

    Hi . My name is Kyle and I'm an independent advisor.

    Steam should recognise it as a standard Xbox controller, and accept inputs based on what was mapped in the Xbox Accessories app.

    Go into your Steam settings, go to Controller, and ensure 'Enable Steam Input for Xbox controllers' is enabled. From there, it should work in almost any game.
