Spotted by The Verge’s Tom Warren, the feature, which is currently in testing, will allow you to easily connect your Xbox controllers and accessories without getting off your couch, apparently. The feature will most likely be added to live Xbox servers soon.
How to remotely pair Xbox controllers and accessories
- Click on the Xbox Accessories panel in the Xbox Home Dashboard.
- The panel will take you to your Xbox controller which will show you a new option, called Connect a device. Click on it.
- And here you are on a new panel that will allow you to easily pair your Xbox controllers and accessories.
You can pick any preferred option, and you’ll be able to pair the devices from this menu. Please be aware that this feature is not yet on the live Xbox servers, but it will soon come to the Xbox dashboard.
What do you think about this new feature? Is it useful or not?
