November update

Only a limited number of games with support for now
Microsoft is enabling mouse and keyboard support for its Xbox
One console today. Fortnite will be one of the first games to
enable this support alongside Warframe. Bomber Crew, Deep Rock
Galactic, Strange Brigade, Vermintide 2, War Thunder, and
X-Morph Defense will also all support keyboard and mouse later
this month. Microsoft also previously revealed 7 additional
games will support keyboard and mouse in the future.
Developers will need to specifically opt-in to enable keyboard
and mouse support in Xbox One games, and Fortnite in particular
is only matching these gamers with the same inputs to keep play
balanced. Most modern wired or wireless USB keyboards and mice
will work on the Xbox One, and Microsoft is also partnering with
Razer to launch a wireless mechanical keyboard and mouse set
that’s designed for Xbox. Microsoft is promising more news on
this at CES in January.
Alongside the mouse and keyboard support, Alexa users in the UK
can now beta test Microsoft’s Alexa and Xbox One integration.
The Xbox skill is now available in the Alexa UK store, and
Microsoft is also adding the ability to close apps and games as
an Alexa or Cortana command in the November update. Amazon Music
is also coming to the Xbox One today, allowing subscribers to
stream music to Microsoft’s consoles.
