Xbox reveals Ghost Cipher special edition wireless controller
Microsoft has announced the latest special edition Xbox controller.
Following a recent leak that confirmed the upcoming controller’s name, the company officially revealed the Ghost Cipher Special Edition Xbox Wireless Controller on Tuesday.
Pictured above, it has a transparent grey design, allowing players to see the controller’s inner workings, rubberised back grips, and bronze metallic D-pad and triggers.
Priced at $69.99 / £64.99, it’s available to pre-order now ahead of its launch on October 8, 2024.
Its release follows the launch of the Sky Cipher Special Edition Xbox Wireless Controller this summer.
Microsoft has today also launched Cipher Series top cases and chromatic D-pad/paddles for Elite Series 2 controllers with Xbox Design Lab in select markets.
“Drawing inspiration from the iconic translucent tech of the ’90s and early 2000s, the Cipher Series brings six stunning transparent top case designs to Xbox Design Lab,” it said.
“These vibrant, candy-colored top cases encapsulate the controller’s metallic frame, showcasing both its external beauty and the advanced engineering within the Elite Series 2 controller.
“In addition to the Cipher Series, two new chromatic D-pad and paddle designs—Energy Chroma and Sunset Chroma—introduce a dynamic spectrum of color.
“These metallic finishes blend hues to create a hypnotic gradient that shifts depending on the angle, adding a sci-fi, jewelry-like feel to your controller.”
