Microsoft revealed today that PC drivers are now available for the Xbox One controller.

Major Nelson made the announcement, offering direct links to download the PC drivers for the Xbox One controller. 'The new PC drivers will enable the Xbox One controller to be used with any game that featured gamepad support for the Xbox 360 controller,' Nelson wrote. 'Simply download the drivers, connect your Xbox One controller to your computer through a micro USB cable and you’ll be gaming in no time.'

While Microsoft confirmed PC compatibility for the Xbox One last year, rumors popped up in March that contradicted that information. However, Microsoft quickly debunked the misinformation earlier this year, and now PC drivers are available for download. Microsoft also plans to release the drivers as part of a Windows update in the near future.

Windows 10 has built-in drivers that let you use an Xbox One controller within games, but what about using an Xbox One controller all the time? It's a great alternative to a mouse if you use your PC as an entertainment center in your living room, and while not as accurate, it does a good job.

There are several programs you can use that will give you the ability to use your Xbox One controller all the time, but we chose Gopher360. It's free, it's simple, and it's functional. Here's how to set it up.

How to use your Xbox One controller as a mouse on your Windows 10 PC

Gopher360 is a great app with a small footprint that lets you use your controller as a mouse. Before proceeding with these steps, ensure your Xbox controller is powered on and connected to your PC.

1. Launch your web browser of choice from the desktop, Start menu, or taskbar.

2. Navigate to the Gopher360 webpage.

3. Click the Gopher360 link at the top of the page. It will contain the latest version.

4. Scroll down.

5. Click the Gopher.exe download link. Gopher360 will download.

6. Click Run when the download is finished.

Gopher360 will start automatically. You can now use your Xbox One controller as a mouse on your Windows 10 PC. Want to have Gopher360 start automatically each time you boot your PC? Add it to your PC's Startup folder!

It's fully customizable, it works seamlessly with Steam's Big Picture mode, and there's an option to have Controller Companion run when your PC starts, even if Steam doesn't launch as well.
