Microsoft is releasing a new Xbox One Wireless Controller Adapter next week that is 66% smaller than the original: I have mine connected to a PC tower, so the size never did bother me, but those who game on a laptop should prefer the diminutive footprint of the new one. It’s capable of connecting up to eight controllers at once.



The new and improved Xbox Wireless Adapter for Windows 10 enhances your controller connection when gaming on Windows 10 PCs and tablets. It’s 66 percent smaller than the original Xbox Wireless Adapter for a smaller form factor and to fit better next to other USB devices you may have plugged in nearby. The Adapter offers wireless stereo sound support and the ability to connect up to eight controllers at once. The new Wireless Adapter for Windows 10 will be available in select markets for $24.99 USD starting in August. You can also choose to get the adapter bundled with the Xbox Wireless Controller for $79.99 USD.
