    Xbox One mouse and keyboard converters


    I’ve recently been looking for a way to play games like Apex Legends or FarCry: New Dawn with my mouse and keyboard. Sadly, all I’ve found were some converters from nowhere, that get tons of people complain about everyday. My question is: why isn’t Microsoft
    selling their own mouse and keyboard converters? They have all the knowledge needed (I mean duh, THEY created the console!) and they could also profit quite a lot from it. There are HOUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS people just like me, that would pay a lot for the ability
    to use mouse and keyboard on their Xbox. Is there some dark secret behind it? What is happening?!

    :)

    Keyboard and Mouse Converters and Microsofts View

    Hi there,

    As to your question about Ban's i am not aware of anyone being ban for using a converter, however the information regarding this is not available to us, only the Enforcement Team would know this information,

    As for using a converter on the Xbox One you can plug in a keyboard and mouse directly in to the console and the keyboard will navigate the dashboard.

    There are games that already have Keyboard and Mouse Support and will allow you to play the game with the keyboard and mouse as the controller's, for example: Warframe is one of these game.

    you will however find that not all games support the keyboard and mouse feature.

    Please find extra info here:

    The support for KB/M depends on the developer of the game (Respawn and Ubisoft, respectively), not the hardware itself. Since USB keyboards and mice don't need to be proprietary, Microsoft's system does open up the market to a wider variety of product
    and price points.

    Hello Czamek,

    We understand that you're inquiry here is in regards to the inability to play games on your Xbox One console through using mouse and keyboard.

    The truth is mouse and keyboard is already fully supported on the Xbox One console, but some games have not allowed the
    use of said feature.

    This is provided within the linked article above:

    Note Xbox supports the use of mouse and keyboard in some games and apps, but it doesn’t work for every game or app. The game or app publisher must enable this feature for their content.

    We hope this information helps and we wish you the best!

    Microsoft, please tell me how the XIM3 is legit?

    It wouldn't give you that much of an advantage anyway, this isn't true keyboard and mouse support.

    All the device does is convert keyboard and mouse input into that of a controller. This means that you are still limited to what a controller can do in the game.

    Unable to get keyboard and Mosue to work in game mode playing Fortnite

    For the following to work you must make the menu selections using your keyboard. If you use the controller to make your menu selections to start the game you will be placed in a room for those with a controller and your keyboard/mouse will be non functional
    to make it fair to other players. To enter the room for keyboard and mouse users the game must be started by selecting the options using the keyboard/mouse. Hope this helps.

    Mouse and keyboard support

    Fortnite on Xbox One supports the ability to play with a mouse and keyboard. Note that when using a mouse and keyboard on Xbox One, you’ll be placed in a game with other users who also chose mouse and keyboard as their control option. To enable your setup
    to use mouse and keyboard, see Mouse and Keyboard Support

    Note If you’re on a child account, you’ll also need to enable settings for cross-network play to use a keyboard and mouse while playing
    on Xbox One.
