Respawn Entertainment, the developer of the upcoming Titanfall first-person shooter, has helped Microsoft fix the Xbox One controller response, so that its analog sticks aren’t so twitchy and are just right for the upcoming shooter.

Titanfall launches this March on the PC, Xbox One, and Xbox 360, and delivers a fast-paced multiplayer first-person shooter in which responsive controls are crucial.

The studio has now confirmed through the voice of Design Lead Justin Hendry that it helped Microsoft fix the Xbox One controller input in order to make it less twitchy and more fluid.

"It's just fixing the controller input, really," he told The Verge. "It wasn't really where we felt it should be; it was a little overly twitchy with the current controls. Now it's fixed. We're happy with it."

The change will be implemented in the March Xbox One firmware update, according to Hendry.
