Hey everyone! I’m currently in the process of moving across the country and had to ship my trusty PC. I know this might sound a bit desperate, but I do have an Xbox on hand. Can I hook up my keyboard and mouse to it? I’m just way too eager to jump into some gaming before I settle into my new place!

Technically, you can play casual modes with a keyboard and mouse, but you won’t be able to queue for competitive or any ranked matches. Just play nice!
Unfortunately, using a keyboard and mouse on an Xbox isn’t really supported for most games, and it’s generally considered cheating if you do find a way to do it. It gives players an unfair edge over those using a controller. Just a heads up!
Damn. Thanks for clearing that up!
You can use a keyboard for typing in chat, but that’s pretty much the limit. Don’t be that player who tries to gain an advantage with a keyboard and mouse—it’s not really fair to others!
Yeah, and even for games like Overwatch, you’d need a special adapter to get it to work properly. Just better to stick with the controller for now!
