New Xbox Series X Aqua Shift Controller Up For Preorder

Microsoft has announced a new special-edition Xbox Series X|S controller with a pretty blue finish. The Aqua Shift Special Edition controller has a prismatic paint job that shines in the light. It's available for preorder now and will be available starting August 31.

$70

The controller features the usual Series X functionality, along with rubberized side grips with a special color swirl. It notably costs $70, the same price as other recent special-edition controllers like the Space Jam controllers, or a custom color scheme from Xbox Design Lab. That makes about $10-20 more than most standard controller colors, so you're paying a premium for the unique look.
