Microsoft’s Xbox Cloud Gaming Service Now Supports Mouse and Keyboard for PC Gamers

Microsoft’s Xbox Cloud Gaming service has added mouse and keyboard support for PC users in the preview version, allowing gamers to enjoy titles like Fortnite, Doom 64 and Sea of Thieves via the Xbox Cloud service on Edge and Chrome browsers, as well as the Xbox app on Windows PC.

Two years ago, Microsoft began working on adding mouse and keyboard support to the Xbox Cloud Gaming platform. The feature is now available to users enrolled in the PC Gaming Preview program, allowing them to seamlessly use a mouse and keyboard to play a variety of games in the Xbox Cloud Gaming catalog.

Some gamers prefer to use a computer mouse and keyboard for better control when playing games on a computer, which is why Microsoft has added this new feature. Titles such as Fortnite, ARK Survival Evolved, Sea of Thieves, and Halo Infinite, among others, now support these peripherals. To effectively use this feature, users must enable preview features in their browser and play games in full screen mode.

Although some games may initially display controller UI elements, they will adapt to mouse and keyboard controls once the player starts using these peripherals. This new feature aims to improve the gaming experience for gamers who prefer to use a computer mouse and keyboard.
