The headsets have a translucent body as well and offer the unique volume adjust feature by rotating the right earcup.

Additionally, Xbox has also partnered up with Razer for a Universal Quick Charging Stand. The limited-edition stand charges controllers in under 3 hours and comes with smart technology to prevent overcharging, overheating, and short-circuiting to percent damage.

And for those looking to celebrate the occasion, the company is also launching exclusive apparel, Drinkware, and more as a part of the 20th-anniversary collection.

Interestingly, the controller was already on the Best Buy website minutes before the official announcement.

The wireless controller and headset are available for pre-order at a price tag of $69.99 on the Microsoft Store. Fans can order the merchandise from the gear shop. As for the charging stand, there is no official launch date and developers recommend being on the lookout for it on the official Razer website.
