Xbox Cloud Gaming adding mouse and keyboard support
Microsoft is adding the ability to use a mouse and keyboard to its suite of games available through Xbox Cloud Gaming via browser, or the Xbox App on Windows PCs.
For now, only a small number of games offer mouse and keyboard support, and only for Xbox Insider members testing new features via the early Alpha Skip-Ahead ring. The option will then be rolled out to more players in the future.
Currently supported titles from Microsoft include Sea of Thieves, Grounded, Pentiment and Halo Infinite. Other big-name games include Fortnite (through a browser only) and ARK Survival Evolved.
