Both controllers boast a design inspired by Geralt of Rivia, featuring his iconic wolf medallion etched into the center. They also showcase Glagolitic script, the ancient Slavic alphabet used in the game, and the right grip displays the distinctive red claw marks representing the "III" from the game's cover. The aesthetic appeal is truly remarkable.
Functionally, these controllers match their standard counterparts. The current Xbox controller is widely acclaimed, known for its excellent feel and durability, even under the rough handling of kids.
The Elite Series 2 model offers additional premium features to justify its higher price. These include adjustable-tension thumbsticks, hair trigger locks, and a wrap-around rubberized grip. It also comes with customizable components such as different thumbstick heights, D-pad designs, and assignable rear paddles.
These new controllers are compatible with Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PC, iOS, and Android devices, making them versatile for various gaming setups.
