Up until recently, it was not an easy task to get a keyboard and a mouse working with the Xbox. That is because it did not come with native support for those accessories and it required a special USB interface that would take the keyboard and mouse signals and transform them into something that the Xbox would easily read. Thankfully, now it is much easier to get a keyboard for Xbox.

In fact, a recent update to the Xbox firmware integrated native support for both gadgets, essentially allowing you to connect any keyboard and mouse directly and start playing immediately! There is one daunting task still left, though.

Finding a good gaming keyboard is a tough task, especially online. There are various button sizes, forms, and materials, that could all impact your gameplay. Moreover, most keyboards are crappy and will break very easily, especially after a few lost battles. To help you with this time-consuming task, we’ve prepared what we believe are the top 5 keyboards for Xbox.
