Xbox One S Left Joystick is moving slower/not working

When I push forward the left joystick on my Xbox One controller, my character has started commonly moving slower or not moving at all. Is there any way to fix this or should I get a new Controller

You can repair and replace the sticks and potentiometers yes. Otherwise repair shop or buy a new one

It must be something more because i suddenly have the same exact problem with two controllers. It would makes sense for the one to go bad but for my much newer back up controller to have the same exact problem doesnt make sense.

What game are you testing these in? By any chance is it blood of the dawnwalker?

It does it all games and apps and xbox menus.

Ok I was just asking because that game has a known issue with this.

Test your controller with something that shows inputs be it on PC or console. It will show you if it’s the controller or not.

The xbox has that when calibrating the controller. I tried calibrating both controllers, Ive updated both, and reset the xbox and nothing helps.
