Xbox 360 series controller

Xbox One, Xbox One S, and Xbox One X controllers work on Xbox Series X|S, and vice versa. However, Xbox 360 is on it's own, similar to the OG Xbox.

What's cool however is if you remote stream Xbox One, One S, One X, Series S, or Series X on, say, a PC, you can plug in a 360 controller and use it on the newer generation.

But no, newer controllers aren't supported on 360.

Hello,

What console are you referring to - Xbox 360, Xbox One or Series X|S? What exactly happens when you try to connect/sync the controller?

For Xbox 360:

Connect a controller to your Xbox 360 | Xbox Support

Xbox 360 Wireless Controller disconnects or can’t connect | Xbox Support

For Xbox One and Series X|S:

Connect an Xbox Wireless Controller to your console | Xbox Support

Troubleshoot your Xbox Wireless Controller | Xbox Support

Hope this helps.

I use Razer Tartarus PRO with analog input. The system see that xbox 360 controller connected.

SOLUTION

It needs to disable xbox 360 for windows in device manager and then after few minutes xbox series controller starts working as it must to be. If you enable x360 again, series controller continue working until you reboot your system.

I'm not a Microsoft employee, but I understand, however, the controllers made by the design lab are the Xbox One and Series controllers. Unfortunately, the Xbox 360 does not support these controls.

Did your controller ever work before, or are you just trying to get it to work now?

The drivers for the Xbox 360 are not available for download independently anymore, and there is no reason for them to be, as Xbox 360 controllers have been natively supported by Windows since Windows Vista. The drivers can't be downloaded because they are already part of the Windows Operating System.

Is your controller wired or wireless?

Unlike Xbox One or Series X|S controllers, Xbox 360 wireless controllers are always wireless. If you've attempted to connect a Wireless Xbox 360 controller to your laptop with the Play and Charge cable, it won't work. This is because the Play and Charge does not send data. It will just flash. Xbox 360 wireless controllers need an Xbox 360 gaming receiver.

Only Xbox One or newer Series X|S controllers can be both wired and wireless.
