Cloud streaming platform Xbox Cloud Gaming is now getting support for mouse and keyboard. Originally only supporting controllers, the platform has started the process of allowing players to play games with more traditional PC gaming controls.
Not yet available to all Xbox Cloud Gaming players, the new feature is has only been rolled out to Xbox Insider members in the Alpha Skip-Ahead ring for testing purposes. Once enough players have had a chance to test the feature, it will then be rolled out to the rest of the user base.
Not all games on Xbox Cloud Gaming support mouse and keyboard yet, however, and Microsoft has released a list of titles that can be played with the new control scheme. Check out the full list below.
