Keyboard and mouse on console

Hello! I hope everyone is doing well :)


I have been playing DBD on console since 2019 - I honestly really enjoy to play the game most of the time. Obviously like every game there are flaws but I enjoy the mind games aspect of the game and I am always striving to get better.


I recently bought a keyboard and mouse for Xbox. I was shocked to find out that keyboard and mouse is not compatible on console. I really want to learn how to play DBD on keyboard and mouse. I am super comfortable on controller and wanted a new challenge.


Is there any chance this would be added to console soon!???? I sure hope so, I am sure there are a lot of people who want this to be on console.


Thank you for your time and help :)

    Been asked for many many times over the years. Last word was that they have no plans to add it. The reasons given were it would involve too much time, way too much work, and would require an UI update as well. I believe the question was again asked during the last dev Q&A.

    There is an adapter available that costs around $240 USD that does work for the PlayStations, however it does not work on the Xbox machines. Things like you can move left and right, but not forward or back, nothing triggers powers or interactions etc. and no binds work at all.
