Microsoft Unveils Two Brand-New Xbox Series X Controllers

We’ve got a couple of new Xbox Wireless Controllers on the horizon! Microsoft has today announced that the ‘Electric Volt’ and ‘Daystrike Camo’ designs will be available to purchase on April 27 and May 4 respectively.

Here’s what Microsoft has to say about the two controllers:

Electric Volt – April 27 ($64.99 USD)

Electric Volt builds on the same, striking color theme of Shock Blue and Pulse Red but takes it up a notch with a high-energy, yellow resin not yet seen on Xbox hardware. The high-vis yellow top case punches hard against the matte black hybrid D-pad while the white back case adds even more dimension to the design. Textured grip on the bumpers, triggers, and back case help provide greater control through every gaming session.

Daystrike Camo Special Edition – May 4 ($69.99 USD)

Your favorite Xbox camo takes on a unique, lifestyle twist in this fresh design. With a palette of deep reds, paired with grey and black, Daystrike Camo brings a streetwear vibe to your game. It also includes features standard of the new Xbox Wireless Controllers like the Share button, hybrid D-pad, and textured grip on the triggers. For the first time ever, the Daystrike Camo Special Edition incorporates textured grip across the entire top surface of the bumpers to keep your grip locked in and on target.


Additionally, for the first time ever, these two controllers are incorporating post-consumer recycled (PCR) resins made from recycled materials like automotive headlight covers, plastic water jugs and CDs. The goal is to become more sustainable across the Xbox product lifecycle, and Microsoft says it’s “excited to be taking this next step.”
