Microsoft Confirms Xbox One Controller Buttons Will Have Remapping ‘Soon’

Microsoft says that Xbox One users will soon be able to remap their controllers regardless of version, suggesting that it will no longer be an exclusive perk to owners of Elite controllers.

Xbox One Elite controllers are up for preorder and are going to hit the shelves soon on Oct. 27, which caused one fan named Stav to ask Microsoft via Twitter why remapping is restricted to the upcoming premium controllers only, noting that the feature is a standard on the PS4.

Xbox's director of program management Mike Ybarra promptly responded, saying that every controller will get the feature "soon," which made the Xbox fan ecstatic upon hearing the good news.
