Controller variations
- Xbox Elite Wireless Controller has special limited edition (only 2000 available) designed for racing games - SCUF Forza Elite Wireless Controller. Controller has different color and paddles are connected vertically to gamepad.
- New revised controller variation Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2 includes Bluetooth connectivity, USB-C support, and a rechargable battery that lasts for up to 40 hours per charge[2]. Three configs can be stored locally on controller and device has new adjustable tension thumbsticks.
Use with PC platforms
Windows
- Connecting the controller should automatically download and install latest drivers for the controller.
- Configuration is available only in Xbox Accessories tool which is available on Windows 10.
- Custom application reWASD allows remapping the whole controller and works on Windows 7 or newer. Software gives advanced customization options eg. reassigning paddles to keyboard or mouse actions, macros, activate custom modes etc.
reWASD
- Supports middle switch profile button. Allows map a config for 1st slider position, second config for 2nd position and switch between them[3].
- Paddles and Guide button can be remapped.
- Alows to activate Impulse Trigger Vibration.
- Allows emulate virtual DS4 controller to play PS4 Remote Play, PS Now or Dualshock 4 compatible games.
- Not free of charge. 7-days trial.
- Custom configs for Xbox Elite controller can be found in official Community Configs Library maintained by reWASD users.
macOS
- Use the 360Controller custom driver.
Linux
- The Xbox Elite Controller is natively supported by distros using Linux kernel 4.7 or later.[4]
- Xow is a Linux user mode driver for the Xbox One wireless dongle. It communicates with the dongle via libusb and provides joystick input through the uinput kernel module. The input mapping is based on existing kernel drivers like xpad.
Steam
- Steam has ability to bind the Xbox Elite controller Paddles in controller configurations, the ability to bind the Share button in controller configurations and support for Trigger rumble in games using Windows.Gaming.Input API.[5]
- Configuration applied by official Xbox Accessories App or reWASD is coexisting with Steam. Steam Input does not overwrite their configuration.
Steam Link compatibility
- Works without any drivers on any operating system that supports Steam.
- Can be used just to send input from a controller to a PC. Go into Streaming options, hit 𝗬 and disable video and audio streaming.
- Controller connected via USB works as expected.[6]
- Steam Link has experimental support for the wireless adapter and it works through VirtualHere too (Model 1537 and 1697). [7]
- Won't work great unless you connect it to LAN or a low latency Wi-Fi.
Support in games
- Natively supported by most modern games via XInput. Controller in old games can be recognized as Xbox 360 Controller.
- Some XInput supported games may not work correctly with the Xbox One Elite controller. Refer to the individual game pages for details.
Impulse Trigger Vibration
For a list of games, see List of games that support Xbox One impulse triggers.
- The impulse triggers of the Xbox One Controller are two independent rumble motors located within each of the triggers, allowing developers to selectively vibrate the trigger when the player is performing an action that warrants such a feedback, such as firing a gun or charging an attack.
- The XInput API does not expose this functionality. Games making use of the rumble motors uses the Windows.Gaming.Input API instead.
- The third-party DLL injection-based tool X1nput can be used to convert the normal vibrations of a game to impulse trigger vibration in many single player games.
Hardware
Gyro Support: Brook X ONE Adapter
- You can use Xbox One controller to play PC, PS4, Switch, Xbox One games wirelessly.
- Controller can be connected to PC via Bluetooth. Xbox Wireless Adapter for Windows is no longer needed.

- Allow the use of headsets on the Xbox Wireless Controller for PS4/Xbox One. Battery lasts up to ten hours.
