Console support for keyboard and mouse
Does BF6 support keyboard and mouse on consoles?
Forum Discussion
Dear Battlefield Developers & EA Team,
As loyal fans of the Battlefield franchise, we are calling for the implementation of native keyboard & mouse (KBM) support for PlayStation and Xbox consoles in Battlefield 6 and future titles.
Why this matters:
- Player Choice: Many console players prefer the precision and comfort of KBM but want to enjoy the stability and accessibility of console gaming.
- Fair Cross-Play: Other major shooters like Call of Duty, Fortnite, and Apex, provide KBM support, ensuring a more balanced cross platform experience.
- Accessibility: Not all players can afford or maintain a high end gaming PC, KBM support allows everyone to compete on equal footing.
- Community Growth: Giving console players the same input flexibility as PC gamers makes the franchise more inclusive and competitive.
Our request:
We respectfully ask the Battlefield development team to prioritize native KBM support on PlayStation and Xbox for the next Battlefield installment. This feature was long requested during Battlefield 2042 and is essential for the future of cross platform play.
Why it matters for sales:
Many players in this community (myself included) are on the fence about purchasing the next Battlefield if this feature isn’t included. For some of us, KBM support is a deciding factor when it comes to investing in the game.
If you agree, please like, comment, and share this post so the developers see how important this is to the community.
Let’s make Battlefield accessible for everyone and worth buying.
Sorry mate, I'm against you on that one. I see what you mean from an input preference and flexibility point of view, but there's a reason why input is designed to match its native platform. In terms of fairness and competitive play, let me use Fortnite as an example. In Fortnite, Console-Only tournaments are hosted for console players to compete against each other, but Epic allows native keyboard and mouse support on consoles. This creates an unfair playing field, as KBM players have full range of motion compared to console players who are limited by stick-dependent movement.
You hit the point. It is unfair to have pc players in consoles.lobvies without the full input movement. And, PC players can use controller and thus have aim assist...
So, we want the same, but from the orher side. COD does this from years now, and nobody complains about that.
