Hi there! This is Virginia O.

I understand that you are experiencing issues with your controller being disconnected in the middle of gameplay.

I apologize for the inconvenienced this has caused you. I will do my best to help you.

Please re-pair the Controller by turning off your Xbox and the controller.

Turn the console back on.

On the controller, press and hold the pairing button (the small round button on the top of the controller) until the Xbox button starts flashing.

Press the pairing button on the Xbox Series X (located on the front of the console) to re-pair the controller.

And then update the controller's firmware. Kindly connect the controller to the Xbox Series X with a USB cable.

Press the Xbox button to open the guide.

Go to Profile & system > Settings > Devices & connections > Accessories.

Select the controller and choose "Update."

Next is to check for wireless interference:

Other wireless devices (e.g., Wi-Fi routers, other Bluetooth devices) could be causing interference with your Xbox controller's signal.

Please your Xbox to a different location, away from large wireless devices or metal objects. Ensure that there are no physical obstructions between the console and controller.

If the issue persist after performing the troubleshooting steps kindly use a wired connection by connecting the controller to the console with a USB cable.

This can help determine if the issue is related to the wireless connection.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Hi Cassandra, my name is Joel, I'm here to help you with any issues or questions you may have.

Cassandra, in light of the steps you've already taken, I have to ask you something, is your console plugged directly into the power outlet or are you using an additional cable, extension cable or power strip?

Please note that this is a public forum, I will respond to you within a short period of time and I am sorry for the delay in response. As I am simply a user trying to provide information and knowledge that may be useful to others.

Thanks for reporting this issue in Microsoft Answers.



I understand that you are having trouble with your Xbox Series X controller frequently disconnecting, and I understand your confusion.

For the issue of your Xbox Series X controller frequently disconnecting during gameplay, you can try the following solutions:

1. Ensure that both your controller and console are updated to the latest firmware version.
   
2. Use the Xbox Accessories app to recalibrate your Xbox controller and add a profile.
   
3. Try re-pairing the controller by pressing the pairing buttons on both the controller and the console.
   
4. If the wireless connection is unstable, you can try connecting the controller to the console using a USB cable.
   

If the above methods do not resolve the issue, you can test the controller on other devices to check if the problem persists. If the issue occurs on multiple devices, it is recommended to submit a service request for further inspection.

We look forward to hearing back from you.
