x360ce, or Xbox 360 Controller Emulator, is a Windows utility that lets many gamepads, joysticks, wheels, and other controllers behave like an Xbox 360 controller.

It can help users map buttons, triggers, sticks, POV inputs, and wheel controls to the layout expected by games. x360ce is useful for players who want broader controller compatibility without replacing their existing hardware.
