Last year, the Xbox One received an update that added native support for keyboard and mouse as game controllers. Since then, many game titles have come up with support for gameplay with these devices. One of these games is the Sims 4 by EA. Gamers can play this title using a keyboard and mouse instead of the Xbox controller.
What is Razer Turret?
The Razer Turret is a wireless keyboard and mouse combo, which supports linking to both Xbox One and a Windows PC. It has RGB lighting that wasn’t much utilized until now. In a new update for Sims 4, the developers have added dynamic lighting to the game so that players can take advantage of the combo.
Xbox One Dynamic Lighting Feature
Xbox One dynamic lighting is a feature that allows the game to change RGB lights on the connected keyboard and mouse. This can be used by players to show useful information regarding the games through lights, as well as set the lighting according to the gameplay.
Dynamic lighting in Xbox One aims at providing contextual lighting for the console’s games. Videogame creators can program the RGB lights to change according to changes in a game, for more ‘dynamic’ feel.
Sims 4 Adds Dynamic Lighting Feature to Xbox One
The Sims 4 version 1.19 update has added dynamic lighting for a RazerTurret keyboard and mouse combo. It can be used to set the mood of your game as well as secret world themes through RGB lights.
The dynamic lighting feature on Xbox One additionally allows for immersive gameplay experience. It transforms a virtual world into reality using the lights on your keyboard and mouse. There are six games for Xbox One including Sims 4 that support dynamic lighting. Some of them are Gears 5 and Vermintide 2.
While the dynamic lighting feature in Sims 4 for Xbox One offers an immersive experience, it is limited only to Razer Turret. The combo comes at a premium cost of $248. We look forward to dynamic lighting support on cheaper and more easily accessible RGB keyboards and mouses.
