Xbox's New Policy: Official Accessories Only, Third-Party Controllers Banned?

Microsoft will no longer allow unauthorized third-party accessories to be used with Xbox consoles starting from November 12, 2023. Players are receiving a warning message, "error 0x82d60002," when plugging in unauthorized accessories, informing them that their accessories will be blocked. Xbox advises returning the accessory and referring to its list of authorized products. This policy change is causing issues for brands like Brook Gaming and has been affecting various third-party accessories since the latest console build. Officially licensed products from third-party manufacturers will remain unaffected.
