Apple, Microsoft working on Xbox Series X controller support for iPhones, iPads

San Francisco: Apple and Microsoft are working together to make the new Xbox Series X as well as Series S controllers work on iPhones and iPads.

Currently, the new controllers are not officially supported in iOS or iPadOS, but Apple says “Microsoft and Apple are working together to bring compatibility for the Xbox Series X controller to customers in a future update.”

The update will allow Xbox owners to play supported games from Apple Arcade and the App Store with the new controller on iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch, Apple TV, and Mac.

It’s not clear how long it will take Apple to certify the new Series X controllers.
