Get ready for Xbone players to cry their eyes out when they start getting completely destroyed in FPS games by mouse users.

Edit : ok its for streaming from your pc to xbox one which that feature is needed but why not supporting the keyboard and mouse for xbox one as default alongside the controller to play the xbox one games on xbox one .

Next up for the Xbox One, open up your console, stick your own GPU inside, maybe an 8 core CPU as well if you want and don't forget the RAM. PC equipment for an Xbox sounds amazing. You should probably just trade in your Xbox for a proper PC. I own both a PC and an Xbox One so no, I'm not trying to start a platform war.

Wouldn't the skill gap be huge for some people who use a mouse and then some people who use a controller it might cause trouble in my opinion.

It would actually be pretty cool if they integrated a chat system into online games like they have on PC... rather than needing a mic I could just type away to communicate.

[enzift]

shit is getting intense in the land of xbox

[joshuasoto]

This will help for the fallout 4 mods that won't be compatible with a controller.

[MrEditsCinema]

is there any extension cable were i could plug my keyboard and my mouse into my xbox and pc at the same time because i cant be arsed switching them out lol.

[Ligriel]

Does this mean WoW on Xbox one is possible now? ( or any other PC game)

[jzacarias]

It just keeps getting better. And we have the best games too.

[khoiMAXIM]

Imagine if all the actual pro Cod 4 promod players/ competitive cod players changed to console online against controllers.
Mouse v.s. Controller?
I think we know the obvious winner here.

People the mouse support is not for games, its just for when you use apps like Internet Explorer and you have a mouse controlled by the analog stick.

[ArcherTheGolfer]

Xim4 lets u use keyboard and mouse on any console

[Shadowyesville]

At least some games on ps4 have mouse and keyboard support I wish the developers would get off their asses and use it

[GraphicJ]

I'm a PC player at heart but THIS just make me want to buy a Xbox One just to play FPS games and dominate other players with their controllers. lol
Many controller tears will be shed if this is true. ha ha ha!

[Ionic]

No... its not for games people is for the web browser and dashboard...
hell ps3 had this years ago.

[hallowedassassin]

Watch Microsoft secretly make keyboard/mouse harder to use so the controller users don't rage so hard.

[osskeet]

This actually might be really cool. Sometimes I am just navigating around my xbox without playing a game. if I could do that without turning on my controller that would be cool. Just quickly search YouTube videos and use the Internet. I like it

[TreyGamrArchive]

I want to use the Mario Paint mouse on it.

[mestido]

heh wondering if it will even work in the games, like BF4 or Halo if not then whats the point?
