If you fancy kicking off the new year with another Xbox controller variant, good news. Microsoft has revealed the latest edition to its Cipher family of controllers, and this one comes in a bright red hue.
The Pulse Cipher Special Edition features a translucent top case, so you can see the controller’s inner workings. It follows the same overall design as Xbox’s Sky Cipher and Ghost Cipher models, but with a different colour palette. It features a colour palette where “modern gaming meets enduring nostalgia”, Xbox said.
You can see how it looks – front and back – in the image below.
The red Pulse Cipher Special Edition is available to pre-order today ahead of its launch on 4th February, priced £70.
In September of last year, Microsoft also revealed some transparent Cipher Series top cases, along with some chromatic D-pad and paddles, for its Elite Series 2 controllers. These top cases are inspired by the “translucent tech of the ’90s and early 2000s”, and are available via Xbox Design Lab.
