Hi,

That would be up to the manufacturer as to whether or not necessary drivers
are developed or firmware that is compatible is released. Microsoft doesn't
write the supporting software for devices, it writes the operating system.
It includes, where possible, drivers supplied by the manufacturer in the
operating system. Once the operating system is released, supporting files
for additional devices must come from the device manufacturer.

None of us work for Microsoft and MS doesn't write device drivers anyway.
You need to ask Sony.
