The Xbox Sky Cipher Special Edition Wireless Controller is designed in shades of blue. Its front part is made of translucent plastic, through which the internal parts of the device are visible. The controller handles on the back have rubberized pads for better grip. The controller triggers are painted metallic blue.

The Sky Cipher Special Edition Xbox controller comes with a new packaging design. Plastic elements were removed from it, and the paper user manual was replaced with a QR code that can be scanned with a smartphone and access the digital version of the manual – concern for the environment from Microsoft. In addition, the controller packaging is 22% smaller and 21% lighter.

Pre-orders for the Sky Cipher Special Edition Xbox Wireless Controller are being accepted by Microsoft partners starting today. It costs $69.99.
