Microsoft has unveiled a new Mineral Camo Special Edition Xbox wireless controller, featuring a camouflage pattern of ocean tones encompassing different shades of blue and purple. It’s available to order now at several retailers (see it at Amazon).
The official Xbox announcement identifies the Mineral Camo controller as the fourth addition to the camo series alongside the Night Ops Camo, Arctic Camo, and Daystrike Camo controllers. The newest iteration has patches of mineral blue, aqua, and dark purple, inspired by geode crystals, with a textured grip on the triggers, bumpers, and back case to enhance comfort and make the controller easier to hold.
The Mineral Camo controller has many of the same features as the Daystrike Camo release, including a hybrid D-pad for more precise input in all eight directions, and a Share button to send screenshots and video out into the world. It also includes a 3.5mm audio jack and wireless technology allowing players to fully immerse themselves into gaming on consoles, PC, mobile phones, and tablets.
The latest Xbox wireless camo controller is priced at $69.99 and is available to purchase right now from Amazon and the Microsoft Store. And if you’re looking to stock up on your accessories, there’s a matching Mineral Camo Razer Universal Quick Charging Stand for Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One controllers. That’s currently up for order on the Microsoft Store in the US and Razer in all other markets, for $49.99.
Microsoft has released several different versions of its new Xbox wireless controller since the Series consoles launched in November 2020, including a series of one-colour controllers and limited editions such as the 20th Anniversary version, the shiny blue Aqua Shift, and an extremely rare pair of furry Sonic the Hedgehog controllers that Microsoft awarded to a single competition winner.
