Microsoft creates prototype Xbox controllers for phones

CAPE TOWN – Microsoft is reportedly experimenting with prototype Xbox controllers for phones and tablets.

This is according to a report by Windows Central., which states that the company has patented designs which show controllers attached to the sides of devices similar to what looks like a Nintendo Switch.

Rumours suggest that  Microsoft could be launching this handheld prototype with the launch of its cloud gaming own service, xCloud.

At this year's Game Developer Conference, Microsoft representatives from the xCloud team stated that when using the service gamers will have their games translate over to mobile devices and can use either a Bluetooth controller or on-screen touch controls to play.
