A remapped controller can make all the difference between victory and defeat in games that require quick reflexes and precise movements. Yes, options include players having the ability to reduce or disable the force of haptic feedback and adaptive triggers. Finally, the DualSense wireless controller's microphone permits for voice dictation, allowing players to search Action buttons for content with their voice. Typically, the share button on the Xbox Series X controller is used to efficiently share gameplay clips and screenshots on social media platforms. All Xinput controllers—including Xbox controllers—will share the same button mapping settings because they don’t provide a way to uniquely identify different controllers to Steam.
Once it’s installed, launch the app, go to previews and select the preview ring you want. There are eligibility requirements to each Insider ring, so don’t expect access to the Alpha and Skip-Ahead rings right away as these are for dedicated testers and include the most unstable build of the Xbox software. Aside from the change to Warranty Period, the Razer Extended Warranty does not alter any other terms and conditions of the Limited Warranty.

The ability to remap the Xbox Series X/S controller Share button is only available to Xbox Alpha Insiders right now, but it’ll soon roll out to every Xbox user in the future.

Users can also have multiple buttons mapped to the same function and because remapped settings are stored directly on the controller, they can travel to any console. If the Pro Controller is connected, the mouse cursor should disappear and you should be able to navigate Big Picture with the gamepad.

If you have a third-party variant of one of the below, or a Bluetooth controller that isn't listed, consider submitting a controller request issue.

If you're using the Xbox Elite Wireless Controller or Series 2, or the Adaptive Controller, you'll be able to access many other customization options. For example, you'll be able to adjust the brightness of the Xbox button, rename the controller, store up to 256 different configurations, swap thumbstick X and Y axes, specify Shift inputs, and a lot more. Once you complete the steps, the controller will revert to the original button settings. Alternatively, if you want to reset the settings for a specific profile, while in the profile editing page, click the Restore to default option. After you complete the steps, the new remap for buttons will save automatically, and you can now start playing games with the new layout.

You can do multiple button swaps in sequence to move button commands to where you want them to be on the controller.
