Microsoft has announced a special edition controller and headset for Xbox. The Redmondo-based brand has introduced Starfield-branded accessories in a long line of special edition controllers for the Xbox Series X and S consoles. The design of these accessories is based on the upcoming Starfield game for Xbox and PC that releases on September 6.
The Starfield limited edition Xbox
controller has a retrofuturistic design. The controller has accents of Grey and
Gold to match the branding of the game. The handgrips are textured and the
analog triggers are translucent. The Xbox Wireless Headset was previously only
available in Black color. The Starfield limited edition headset has Grey color
earcups whereas the headband is in Red and White. The headset mic has a
transparent design.
Both the Starfield-inspired limited
edition controller and headset are loaded with little details from the game.
“The crisp, clean designs are inspired by real-world spacecraft, and are custom
built to transport you right into the cockpit of true space explorer” Microsoft
said in a blog.
Alongside the controller and headset,
Bethesda has also announced a Starfield-branded watch that is a part of the
Collector’s Edition line. It is also available in the game. The physical watch
connects to the user’s phone to display notifications and other information. It
comes in a case that matches the cases of the astronauts in the game. The
Starfield limited edition Xbox controller and wireless headset are priced at US$ 79.99 and US$ 124.99 respectively.Both accessories are available for purchase
from Microsoft.
