If you want a new look for your Xbox Series X/S
Microsoft is prepping three Xbox controller colorways for a busy November launch.
Apart from the standard Carbon Black and Robot White gamepads that come bundled with the Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S, respectively, thereβs also a vibrant Shock Blue controller that really pops.
All three gamepads are available for pre-order (theyβre $60 each except for the blue boy, which is $65) and thereβs also an optional new $25 Xbox Rechargeable Battery + USB-C Cable play-and-charge kit.
Iβm not looking to part ways with my Elite controller (even though the A button has started to make a mildly annoying noise when I press and release it), but if I were? Shock Blue all the way. Itβs a beaut.
In case you missed it, the controller-customizing Xbox Design Lab is βgoing offline temporarilyβ with a hiatus lasting until 2021. When the program returns, you can expect to see its βnext evolution.β
Iβve spent entirely too much money on controllers over the past decade. Itβs my secret shame.
