Microsoft has launched a new function for Windows 11, will like players with Xbox Gamepad. Now a updated keyboard appears on the screen, easy to control by controller. This means entering the text – for example, messages for friends or names in the game – will become easier and faster than before.

The new keyboard is arranged to help print the gamepad buttons. For example, the X button works like deleted, Y – like a space and menu button instead of Enter. The keys are built vertically to move on them with a more convenient control. Microsoft started checking this idea last September and now it is available in the preliminary version of Windows 11. Soon, all users will be able to try itself.

This news is especially important for PC players with gamepad or using mobile devices, such as Asus Rog Ally. Previously, it was inconvenient to print from the controller – I had to slowly search for letters. Now the process will become the same way it works on the Xbox dashboard.
