Brilliant. Just cracked on Dead Space 3 since that's what I've been playing lately, works like a charm.

Hard to believe the excitement over this considering its wired only, is this 2006?
Gonna have to stick with the DS4 for my PC for now, I was so close to order one of those sweet Xbone Titanfall controllers too

The play and charge kit should come with a decent length cable included but I can't remember with 100% certainty.

That Titanfall X1 pad I have is finally going to get some use!
Ive been awaiting this day!!
But i have a huge question. I cant test it now, but im super worried.
I tried installing that unofficial driver that was released a few months ago and never got it working properly. I tried uninstalling it, but now everytime I plug in my xbox one controller, it is still attached to the unofficial driver. Will this new driver from MS over ride the old one? Or do i have to go in and remove the unnoficial one manually?

That, together with the possibility of displaying the snapped app on a second screen would be really cool
Halo 2 is in the Steam registry so a digital version does exist.
That's a Surface tablet, it has full blown Windows 8.1 on it.
Great to hear.
I'll make the jump from the wireless 360 controllers when there is a wireless adapter available.
I don't sit close enough for a shorter USB cable, and I'm not dragging one across the room. I already have three X1 controllers....so I can sacrifice one to my main rig.

Cant you delete the driver by right clicking on the controller in device manager? (go into properties i think)
That would force windows to use its own resources to find the driver
It's probably for the best if you remove it regardless.
It's weird I was thinking about XBone drivers yesterday and was disappointed. Now this news comes today!
Everytime i try that, it does delete it. But once i plug it back in, instead of it being "unidentifed controller" or whatever, it comes back as Xbox one controller.
Has anyone who installed the unofficial drivers tried the official ones? Do they interfere with eachother?
No, but you could use any micro USB cable.
They don't include one, you'll have to get a generic one.
Check through your cable drawer, you may have a spare from a phone or Camera or PS4 pad or something.

100x this, rolling the mid part of your finger is so much quicker.
So glad I can finally put away my battered 360 controller (for PC at least) The sticks have gone so smooth after years of use!
Looking forward to playing Arkham Origins DLC, Wolf Among Us and countless other steam back catalogues with this!
It actually isn't useless. It's quite useful with a micro USB cable.
I also had those installed, removed them because they were shit, installed the official ones just now and works perfect in Witcher 2
It seems to be working across everything with no issues so I would have to believe it took them awhile to get the drivers setup in a way that naturally fit the current xinput games but allowed for new games to take advantage of the rumble triggers and what not. I'm no driver programmer so I couldn't tell you how difficult that might be.

Awesome, will install when I get home. 
Yeah, the bluetooth one?
Awh. Would the regular controller work? ( the one without the charge and play kit)
Yea just get a micro USB cable to go with it.

Yes, you just need a micro usb cable.

Yes It would work, you also get a battery with that which will be pointless at this point.
Cheaper to buy regular pad and a micro usb cable
Nope, microUSB.

Works PERFECT!
Games recognize it as a xbox controller with the buttons and everything
