Microsoft has launched a new special edition Xbox Series X/S controller
Microsoft has officially unveiled the ‘Mineral Camo’ Xbox Series X/S controller.
Confirming an earlier leak, the new controller colour is available now priced at $69.99 / £59.99.
It is the fourth in Xbox’s camo series alongside Night Ops Camo, Arctic Camo and Daystrike Camo.
“The Mineral Camo controller features a bold mineral blue, bright purple, aqua, and dark purple camouflage pattern,” according to Microsoft.
“This colour design sets it apart from the others in the Camo collection as its ocean tones, inspired by geode crystals, finds the perfect balance between striking and subdued.”
Xbox Series X/S launched in November 2020 alongside three controller colours: Carbon Black, Robot White and Shock Blue.
A number of additional controller colours have been released since including Pulse Red, Electric Volt, Daystrike Camo, Aqua Shift Special Edition, Deep Pink and Xbox 20th Anniversary Special Edition.
Microsoft launched a white version of the Xbox Elite Series 2 controller last week.
The controller, which is sold under the full name ‘Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2 – Core’, is similar to the black Elite Series 2 controller but comes with fewer accessories.
As a result, it costs $129.99 / £114.99 instead of the $179.99 / £159.99 normally charged for the black version, which is currently on sale. Players can buy a separate ‘Complete Component Pack’ for $59.99 / £54.99 if they want the other accessories, including the carrying case and charging dock.
Microsoft recently confirmed to VGC that a white Xbox Series X console spotted in a Logitech promotional video is not currently in production or planned for release.
