Xbox: Keyboard and Mouse Support

Benjamin_Wright · Sep 27, 2018

Microsoft,

How does one sign up, or attempt to become a tester for keyboard and mouse for Xbox. I avidly play PC and Xbox, and have made use of the Xbox play anywhere feature several times. I have been waiting for
keyboard and mouse to come to Xbox for some time, so this comes as awesome news! However, I would like to try to become a tester. I think the experience cross platform would allow me to be a good fit.

"Microsoft has been working closely with big and small studios on this new keyboard and mouse support, and it’s now looking for feedback from Xbox testers to perfect this before it’s available later this
year."

keyboard and mouse support

Hi, very few games on the Xbox One support Keyboard and Mouse

Minecraft Bedrock Edition supports both keyboard and mouse

Games like PUBG, Fortnite only support keyboard for extra buttons

Hi, download the xbox insider app, then move to the option to enroll your console in the xbox preview program. Once you have done that, your console will be put on the list to be put in the update. because you will have just started means you wont get
access to keyboard and mouse support straightaway. But you should get it eventually.

Would it happen to be Xbox One Update Preview Omega?

And thank you for such a quick reply.

Preview Omega is the startline, you will get updates days before it goes public. You will need to complete surveys within the insider hub app to gain XP to move up the rings.

Ok, so firstly you should be able to just plug in the mouse/keyboard USB and use it (if they are supported) you shouln't need an adapter to use mouse and keyboard on Xbox One since mouse and keyboard support has been added.

Secondly I'm not aware of black ops 4 supporting mouse and keyboard use on console, so if the developers have not enabled mouse and keyboard support on Xbox One, then using an adapter to be able to use your mouse and keyboard will be considered cheating.

Hi Ben Lewandrowski,

Currently there is keyboard and mouse support, but its up to developers of those games to add the option to allow it. Warface is not one of them that allows keyboard and mouse support yet. I can see that it is an upcoming title for keyboard and mouse support
soon. More information about keyboard and mouse developer support HERE.

Current and upcoming titles that do or may support keyboard and mouse

Hello Dark,

Currently there is no support for keyboard and mouse. There may be support in the future to be able to use a mouse and keyboard for game play.

Here is information on
keyboard and mouse use.

Hope this helps.

Thanks,

Brad

Hey there Matt,

Sorry to hear you are running into problems with your Keyboard.

What game exactly is it that you are trying to jump into? Make sure that the game itself supports keyboard and mouse.
