During Inside Xbox, Phil Spencer, the Head Of Xbox, announced that the console will be getting mouse and keyboard support. During his interview, he stated that it will be coming to Xbox insiders as part of the preview program and that the game Warframe will be the first to utilize and help test the new feature. One of the main points that Phil Spencer stressed is that mouse and keyboard support, and whether a game uses it or not, are in the hands of the developers.

Jason Ronald, Director of Program Management for Xbox Platform had this to say in the official announcement, “It’s important to note that mouse and keyboard support for games is added on a title-by-title basis, entirely at developers’ discretion. For all other titles, nothing changes. Mouse and keyboard input is not enabled by default for games. Each development team knows their titles best and we support them in creating the right experience for their games as they see fit, to ensure an optimal and fair gaming experience. Warframe will be one of the first titles testing mouse and keyboard input when the feature arrives to Insider in the coming weeks.”

In addition to the announcement of mouse and keyboard support, Xbox has announced that it is partnering with Razer to bring the best experience for mouse and keyboard. More information about the support of mouse and keyboard to the console as well as the partnership with Razer will be discussed during Inside Xbox on November 10.
