Xboxhas released a brand-new Velocity Green controller. This is the latestXbox Series X/Swireless controller, making for seven variations for fans to choose from.
TheXbox Series X controller was revealed in 2019, with the new generation of Xbox consoles coming out in November 2020. While the standard black and white versions of the wireless controller were expected, Microsoft also added the option of the Shock Blue controller at launch. But considering how much emphasis Xbox has put on creating a wide range of colorful controllers for the Xbox One, it was only a matter of time until the Xbox Series X/S would get the same treatment. By February 2021 the Pulse Red wireless controller arrived and soon more variations followed. Eventually, the Xbox Design Lab updated as well to cater to those wanting more variety in their next-gen controllers.

The Velocity Green version of the controller is especially fitting because it matches Xbox’s brand. In a way, it’s kind of a surpriseXbox went with releasing the Shock Blue versionon launch when green seems much more connected to the brand. As with most other Xbox controller variants, gamers can purchase this new version for $64.99 worldwide. It’s exactly the same as the other next-gen wireless controllers, so the same performance can be expected from it. It comes with up to 40 hours of battery life, textured grips, and the hybrid D-pad. It can also be used with PC and mobile devices.
Razer also added this exact shade to its line of Universal Quick Charging Stands, so gamers can color coordinate. If that’s not enough, Xbox seems to be very much leaning into the Velocity Green color, as it’s recommending fans to pre-order the matching hoodie as well, which is expected to be available from March 22. If someone wants toshow off their Xbox loyalty, now seems to be the perfect time for that.
Fans have expressed their excitement on Twitter, loving the new design. But at the same time, if someone has a bit more money available, at the end of the day they can design the exactcontroller they’d want in the Xbox Design Labor even spring for the Xbox Elite Controller instead.
