Both controllers feature intricate designs inspired by Geralt of Rivia, including an etching of his wolf medallion at the center. They also incorporate the Glagolitic script, the oldest known Slavic alphabet used in the game, and the red claw marks that symbolize the "III" on the game's cover, adding to their unique aesthetic appeal.
Beyond their striking Witcher-themed design, these controllers retain the functionality of their standard counterparts. The regular Xbox controller is renowned for its excellent feel and durability, making it a top choice for gamers, especially those with active households.
The Elite Series 2 version offers additional premium features to justify its higher price point. These include adjustable-tension thumbsticks, hair trigger locks, and a wrap-around rubberized grip. It also comes with interchangeable components such as thumbsticks of different heights, various D-pad designs, and customizable rear paddles.
These new Xbox controllers are compatible with a wide range of devices, including Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PC, iOS, and Android. If you're considering alternatives and own a PlayStation, you might also be interested in the newly available Death Stranding 2-themed PS5 controller, which is currently up for preorder.
