1. HyperX CloudX
Audio is an important part of gaming, be it on PC or on console.
Though there are official Xbox headphones available, I wouldn’t recommend them. Instead go for the HyperX CloudX headphones.
Memory foam cushions –Comfort is one of the first things you look for in a headphone, and this one delivers it with its memory foam ear cup cushions. The ear pads are swappable between leatherette or cloth as per user’s choice.

2. Xbox One Elite Wireless Controller
Obviously the other important accessory for your console is the controller, Sure it comes with an included controller, but that isn’t the best one on the market. There are many controllers available, but the best of the best is the Xbox One Elite Wireless Controller. Though it is an expensive accessory, enthusiast gamers will prefer the improved features offered for the price.
Durable build – The elite controller, though a bit heavier, is also sturdier. The extra weight can be accredited to the metallic parts used in building this controller.

Hair triggers – Any FPS lover, or even general shooting games for that matter, will love the inclusion of Hair Triggers which allow you to trigger actions like shooting much faster and giving you an advantage in combat. The hair triggers also have a rumble motor of their own.

3. Xbox One Play and Charge Kit
Say you didn’t upgrade to another controller. But it is always a hassle to fidget with swapping batteries.
While there is some benefit to having the Xbox One controller use standard batteries (like not having to worry about having a controller-free console in a few years when the other platforms controller batteries start dying and the platform manufacturers have moved on), the process of switching out AA batteries every few weeks can be maddening.
