Xbox or similar controller for Apple TV and Apple Arcade

I was searching for a compatible and supported controller that is currently being sold for use of basic children's Apple Arcade games that we can play through our Series 3 Apple TV (hopefully will upgrade with the next Apple TV update)... Any suggestions?

Apple Arcade on Apple TV requires an Apple TV (4th generation or later) with tvOS 13 or later.

These are the currently compatible controllers: Connect a wireless game controller to your Apple device - Apple Support

I got the ‘1708’ a while back, and that works fine, although I’m still getting used to operating a controller instead of a keyboard (never really played Xbox). There were two later Xbox Wireless Controller models (1797 and 1914); the 1914 isn’t compatible yet.
