Today, Microsoft unveiled the new Tech Series of Xbox Wireless Controllers, including the first in the series: The Xbox Wireless Controller – Recon Tech Special Edition, which is set to launch April 25, 2017 for $69.99 USD.

According to Microsoft, the new controller series was inspired by military technology and performance patterns. Further, the Xbox team which created it explored concepts stemming from combat armor to sci-fi mechanical gear. The controller boasts “premium finishes,” such as the laser etched texture on the front, and the gold accents and insignia also on the front. The back of the controller features textured diamond rubberized grip designed for added comfort and control.

It does look like a nice controller, it just better not be a fail. Might get one of those tbh.

If those rubber grips are like the ELITE controller expect it to start to bubble or peeling away... I love my ELITE controller but this is my second controller to do this.

It looks quite nice, I laughed when i read that it was inspired by Military Technology. Lets see how well this does.

LGWPosted:

I like the look, however it is just a 'look' and the price of it probably isn't worth it..

tylersk847 There "diamond textured rubberized grips" or whatever are just gonna peel of within a year. That's exactly what happened to my $150 elite controller. Everything they make is so cheap it's not even funny.


I use my elite controller every day, and ive had mine since release, this has not happened to me :thinkingface:

Skates "the new controller series was inspired by military technology". I couldn't take the seriously at all. Other than the aesthetics of the controller, seems a bit pointless.


I must say it does look nice, but yeah it does seem rather pointless.
