The battle between Sony’s PlayStation and Microsoft’s Xbox has reached new heights as both competitors have constantly tried to step up their games. Both of them released their most advanced consoles, the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S, giving fans a wide variety to choose from.

However, this is when their competition began as they stepped out for a console war. As a result, they also tried to release better versions of their next-gen products only to keep their fans hooked. But once again, either side faced resistance as fans stayed true to a particular side.

So, they dropped a fresh idea of releasing better controllers for their consoles, a new ray of hope to upscale their business. While Playstation users received a dual sense edge controller for the PS5, Xbox fans waited for their chance. Now, after months of hard work, Microsoft has put a smile on every Xbox’s users face as the franchise announced an “Elite controller.”

The Xbox community has previously gamed with elite controllers, as the franchise has dropped some in the past. They always reserved these products at a slightly higher price, catering to hardcore gamers. However, the franchise received negative feedback as users complained about multiple bugs in their elite controllers.

As a result, Xbox decided to improve on them, ultimately dropping a fresh series for fans. The franchise unmasked its upcoming products with a dedicated Twitter post, showing improved stats and vibrant colors.

What should a fan look out for in the upcoming product? 

To give a little insight about these absolute beasts from Xbox, the controllers will release under the name Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2–Core. It will feature a fresh addition in white, priced at $129.99. Interestingly, Xbox has reduced the price of the controller by $50, inviting more and more players to buy their product.

While the white controller (Core controller) will just only give out the controller, a thumb stick tool, and a USB C cable, the black one will give access to multiple things. First, it will access a controller alongside four paddles, thumb sticks, a USB cable, an additional thumb sticks tool, a carrying case, and many more. 

Xbox Series 2 controller will have monstrous features compared to its previous versions. Starting with adjustable thumb sticks, the controller will now have shorter trigger locks. Apart from that, its 40-hour battery life is something every player should have their eye on, as it allows them to game for hours without their controller dying. So, let’s look at how fans reacted to this. 

As of now, the new Xbox controllers will release on September 21, 2022, across various retail shops. However, if you can’t keep your excitement content, the franchise is now allowing you to pre-order from their website.
