Xbox Series X won’t support Kinect hardware, games<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n The DualSense compatibility decision casts Sony in contrast to Microsoft, which is promising that “your Xbox One gaming accessories come into the future with you, too” with the coming Xbox Series X. While that promise doesn’t extend to the defunct Kinect camera<\/a>, it does include specialty pads like the Xbox Elite Controller<\/a> and Xbox Adaptive Controller<\/a>. “We believe that your investments in gaming should move with you into the next generation,” Microsoft wrote in a blog post last month<\/a>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n PlayStation Move controllers—first released in 2010<\/a> for use with the PS3—will continue to work with PlayStation VR games on the PS5, Sony said.

Contrast with Microsoft’s plan to bring Xbox One controllers forward for Series X. You won’t be able to use Sony’s DualShock 4 or other third-party PS4 gamepads to play PlayStation 5 games, Sony confirmed in a blog post today. Those older gamepads will still work with “supported PS4 games” running on the PS5, Sony said, and … Continue reading PS4 gamepads won’t work for PS5 games, Sony says<\/span><\/a> Continue Reading
