    XBOX Cloud Gaming and Controller Bluetooth Connection


    I have a few issues with connecting my XBOX Controllers to my laptop (Windows) and my Surface Go2.

    The controller will not connect to my Surface, which has been described in this reddit post:

    https://www.reddit.com/r/Surface/co.../?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3

    The controller is not even being detected by my Surface as well, and none of the troubleshooting users and the poster suggested have worked for me.

    On my other laptop the XBOX Controller connects to the laptop, but the XBOX app does not recognize a controller as being connected so I cannot play any games over the cloud.

    The Controller will work with Steam however, so I do not know if Steam is taking priority over my XBOX app?

    Was wondering what further troubleshooting or weird steps I am missing?

    :)

    trouble with 8bitdo controller on PC

    Hi Luis!

    Please make sure that your 8bitdo controller is one of these models.

    Designed for Xbox
    SN30 Pro Controller for Xbox Cloud Gaming on Android (Bluetooth connection)

    Verified
    N30 Pro 2 (Bluetooth or USB connection)

    These are the two models supported for Xbox Cloud gaming.

    Please check this reference link https://support.xbox.com/help/games-apps/cloud-...

    Try to connect it via Bluetooth or USB cable whichever works. I also suggest to try a different controller to isolate the issue.

    Cloud gaming

    Hi QUACKISON! My name is Ricardo an independent advisor ready to help you with this situation!

    When you use the Xbox Game Pass app or a web browser for cloud gaming, we recommend using an Xbox Wireless Controller connected via Bluetooth or USB cable. Many other types of wired and Bluetooth controllers can also work for cloud gaming. This article identifies some of those controllers and separates them into three categories:

    How is the MOGA XP5 XPlus the official Xbox cloud gaming controller when it doesn't work on my Xbox Series S? Which is an Official Cloud gaming Xbox?

    Hi Eddie. This is clearly not the situation I want you to be in. Believe me, if I were on your situation, I would feel the same way.

    Unfortunately, the MOGA XP5-X Plus is a bluetooth controller for mobile & cloud gaming for Android/PC only that works on bluetooth or USB connection. It doesn't really work on Xbox consoles for cloud gaming.

    Have you tried playing cloud gaming on PC or Android if your controller works fine?

    Can I connect a Nintendo Switch Pro Controller to Xbox Cloud?

    Hi there,

    Unfortunately, the access to connect a Nintendo Switch Pro Controller to Xbox is currently unavailable. Xbox Cloud can only operate with the same controllers which you use on your Xbox Console.

    You can find out how to connect your controllers using Bluetooth here.

    Hope this helps!
    Thanks, Luca
