We've got another shadow drop announcement today, as Xbox has unveiled a set of The Witcher 3 Special Edition Xbox controllers that are exclusive to the Microsoft Store, and you can literally buy them right now if you want to.
The standard "The Witcher 3 10th Anniversary Special Edition Xbox Controller" comes in at $79.99, while the "Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2 – Core – The Witcher 3 10th Anniversary Special Edition" comes in at $169.99, featuring all the extras that you get with the Elite Core series.
Here's how Xbox describes the visual style of these Witcher 3 Special Edition Xbox controllers:
"Our team has put great care into representing the style of The Witcher 3 and Geralt himself, headlined by the wolf medallion iconography at the center of the controller. The medallion acts as a constant for Geralt, one that allows him to adventure and warns him of lurking dangers, and we want players to connect with these controllers in the same way. We love how the design fits the layout of the controller, with the wolf’s head coming below the Xbox button and between the other inputs with its glowing red eyes. It’s very ominous and epic at the same time!
But this is just one design detail The Witcher 3 players can appreciate. The controllers also feature Glagolitic script, the oldest known Slavic alphabet and the same one found in the game itself. As for what the script says… we won’t spoil it here, but let’s just say those symbols are not random. The iconic red claw mark from The Witcher 3’s logo can also be found on the controller, paying homage to the grand adventures Geralt had throughout Velen, Novigrad, Skellige, and beyond. We gave the controller triggers two different colors in homage to the witcher’s twin swords too — silver for monsters, steel for humans."
As mentioned, these Witcher 3 Special Edition Xbox controllers are exclusive to the Microsoft Store, and they're available to purchase now. We'll throw more details about each one down below, as well as some links to buy them.
