Edge not recognizing Xbox controllers (for Xbox cloud gaming) anymore
This problem is now present since around 6 months or longer, some update in Edge totally broke gaming controller support. Problem is reported by countless people on here too: https://www.reddit.c...

Thank you very much for the quick fix. Ive tested 112.0.1697.0 and can confirm, the problem seems to be solved. My xbox controllers are now working in Edge, Xbox 360 controller included.

Hi Gabriel - I'm having this same issue as well; neither Bluetooth Series S/X nor X360 controllers via USB wireless adapter are working in XCloud (X360 one hasn't been working for months now). I've just downloaded the latest Canary build as suggested in your previous post (Version 113.0.1738.0 (Official build) canary (64-bit)) but Edge still refuses to recognise any controllers.
Is there anything else I can try?
Thanks in advance!

xclouder make sure it is not a local issue with your controller/pc. Test if they work in Chrome/Firefox by visiting https://gamepad-tester.com/ but not working in Edge. I had no problems anymore since the above test version of Canary Edge.
- xclouderMar 14, 2023Copper ContributorThanks for replying, makedir - appreciated!
Tested your link in Brave (also Chromium-based as far as I'm aware) and all buttons and sticks registered, so definitely seems to be an Edge issue. The strange thing is that a few weeks ago I managed to have the Series X pad working in Edge, but now neither do. For reference, the X360 pad works fine in locally-installed Game Pass titles.
