Button Remapping Now Available on Standard Xbox Wireless Controllers

As part of the New Xbox One Experience, Microsoft has added button remapping capability for standard Xbox One controllers through the Xbox Accessories App. This highly-requested feature offers a great alternative to remapping buttons on an individual game basis. Now each user on the console can have their own custom button mapping.

Standard controller remapping can be accessed in three ways through the New Xbox One Experience:

1. Settings / Kinect & Devices / Devices & Accessories
2. Settings / Ease of access / Button mapping
3. Launch the Xbox Accessories app directly


On consoles, the Xbox Accessories app notifies users if their controller has an optional or mandatory firmware update. On the PC, the recently updated Xbox Accessories app can now be used to update the firmware on your standard controller, Elite controller, or Chatpad.
