Xbox Series X|S owners can now craft their very own Elite Series 2 controller in the Xbox Design Lab.
As Xbox Series X|S's premium pad, the Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2 is highly coveted for its superb build quality, swappable modules and customizable back paddles. But until now, it's only been available in black or white color schemes.
As of today, though, the Xbox Elite Series 2 has arrived in the Xbox Design Lab. Microsoft's custom controller building site lets you trick out your own pad with alternate color schemes for the shell, triggers, analog sticks and more. You can even add an engraving for a small fee.
The base price for a custom Xbox Elite Series 2 controller is $149.99 / £124.99 / AU$219.95, lodging it between the original model's prices and the cheaper Core in White Edition. Like the latter, an Xbox Design Lab Elite Series 2 sells its add-ons (like carry case and back paddles) separately.
So if you want the full Elite package, expect to pay a bit more. As a bonus, selecting all the accessories will discount the price to $209.99 / £179.99 / AU$279.95. And yes, you can change the color of those flappy back paddles and the Xbox logo on the carry case.
