Four controllers on one (Linux) PC?
Naive as I am, yesterday I bought four Xbox One Wireless Controllers from Galaxus to play games with my family on the TV via PC. It should be easy peasy to connect them via Bluetooth. I unpacked the first controller and suddenly had doubts... Bluetooth is notoriously difficult with multiple devices, isn't it? I asked Gemini and it said: Forget about it! One controller, yes, maybe two if you have a super dongle, but more than that, you can forget! You just have to buy the Xbox Wireless Adapter for Windows. Entries in official MS support forums also seem to confirm this, even if there's little information about it. I don't want to open all four controllers just to find out it doesn't work. But: The Xbox Wireless Adapter for Windows is not available for purchase. Not even in a bundle anymore. At least not at Galaxus. Maybe somehow from abroad. Which wireless controller would allow that? Or do I now have to run four USB cables across the living room? That can't really be the "state of the art" in 2026, can it?! Does anyone in the community have experience with this?
