You can still use your Kinect with your [[Xbox_360_emulators#Hardware_features_and_peripherals|Xbox 360]] or [[Xbox_One_emulators#Hardware_features_and_peripherals|Xbox One]], but the sensor is not compatible with Xbox Series X|S consoles.

<!--==Emulation issues==It should also be noted that the vast majority of Xbox Series X|S games are also available on PC (similar to [[PlayStation_5_emulators#Emulation_issues|PlayStation 5]], [[Xbox One emulators#Emulation issues|Xbox One (X|S)]] and [[PlayStation_4_emulators#Emulation_issues|PlayStation 4 (Pro)]] situations in recent years), so there is increased lack of interest to emulate the console. Having said that, there are still considerable amount of games exclusive to those consoles, this includes games for both PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S that haven't been ported and titles lacking enhanced/next-gen update for PC. See [[List of notable ports#External_links]] section for all of those games. ==See also==-->*[[Controllers#Xbox_One_and_Xbox_Series_X.2FS|Xbox Series X/S Controllers]]
