You may be wondering why Microsoft would announce a new Xbox One controller for retail sale when the Xbox Design Lab already allows anyone to customize an Xbox One controller to suit their tastes. The answer is: I have no idea!
If you’re fond of electronics that are red – I mean, like, SUPER red – this new wireless controller should be right up your alley. It retails for $65, which is $15 cheaper than a controller made through the Design Lab. It’s the improved Xbox One controller model that debuted alongside the Xbox One S, so you’ll enjoy a textured grip and improved wireless range over the original model.
The red wireless controller is available for pre-order on the official Microsoft Store and through GameStop . It releases on January 10.
