It’s evident that the Xbox ecosystem extends well beyond simple home consoles, and by being Microsoft, we’re bound to be entitled to expect certain specific features.
Among those that frequently come up in user requests, we regularly find keyboard/mouse compatibility at the top. Microsoft is working on it and is gradually making its catalog compatible. Nevertheless, there are surprises on the sidelines of official announcements.
Idle Sloth goes back to the information he dug up on Reddit. Originally posted by a certain PurpleMessi, we learn that in addition to all the new features included in the latest 1.6 update, the keyboard/mouse combo could now be used perfectly on consoles.
Quickly and on the studio’s official Discord, the Senior Community Manager working on Cyberpunk 2077 wanted to give some explanations on the case:
It is not full and official support.
We’ve added some tweaks and tweaks that may help with mouse and keyboard, but there aren’t any settings and it’s not guaranteed to work 100% and always, which is why we don’t officially support it and that we haven’t listed these changes in the patch log.Amelia “Lilayah”
Overall, the few users who have tested this feature report a very similar, if not identical, experience with the PC. No doubt Cyberpunk 2077 will officially join the full keyboard/mouse compatible titles very soon. And you, what is your favorite device?
