Howdy,
I was trawling through the news as I do most mornings in among the usual tragedy and scandal I and came across this article: Microsoft and Razer might be working on an Xbox keyboard and mouse partnership - Windows Central and also this one: Microsoft reportedly partners with Razer for Xbox mouse and keyboard support- Neowin
Regarding the long standing promise from M$ regarding keyboard and mouse support for the Xbone. Personally I'm not really in the market for such a device, nor a HOTAS. With my lounge and seating setup wouldn't allow effective use of one. The M$ Elite controller does me fine. However, a title named Sudden Strike has just been released for Xbone which a K&B combo would be a distinct advantage, though controls will be optimized for the default controller.
I'm aware that some CMDR's here would prefer the K&B method if only it were available. Whether or not it ever comes to fruition will become clear in the fullness of time.
A little research also yielded this device, which purports to allow K&B support on the Xbone already. The Xim Apex essentially a USB dongle which can be configured via a smartphone app. Though it's DPI, accuracy, reliability and general usefulness remain a matter of personal conjecture.
Posting here as I thought some of you may find it interesting? Stimulate discussion, etc. Then again, maybe not. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Cheers, o7
