Play and Charge Kit

For better or worse, the Xbox One controller comes standard with a AA battery pack rather than a rechargeable battery. It’s a huge part of why the Xbox One controller lasts so much longer than the DualShock 4, but buying those batteries can begin to add up, which is why the Play & Charge Kit is preferable for many Xbox One owners.

Keep the action going with the Xbox One Play and Charge Kit. Recharge while you play or afterwards, even when your Xbox is in standby. The long-lasting rechargeable battery fully charges in under 4 hours. Say goodbye to disposable batteries and having to swap them out in the middle of a game.

  • Save money by not having to buy AA batteries for your Wireless Controller
  • LED charging indicator on the cable
  • Fully recharges under 4hrs
