Microsoft is expanding its controller customization to include Xbox Elite 2 controllers, an ask that’s been «number one» on players’ requests for the Xbox Design Lab program.
Microsoft has finally extended its Xbox Design Lab to include Xbox’s Elite Series 2 controller. Starting Tuesday, players will be able to customize their Elite Series 2 controllers in all sorts of ways — color, D-pad, thumbsticks, paddles, and engraving, among others.
Microsoft’s starting price for a customized Elite Series 2 controller is $149.99 — slightly more than the base $129.99 for an unmodified unit — and goes up with different add-ons. Players have been eagerly awaiting this announcement since Microsoft teased the program in September, calling it the “number one fan request” since Xbox Design Lab debuted in 2016.
There are options for “nearly all” of the Elite Series 2 external pieces — its front and back body, D-pad, triggers, thumbsticks, and buttons, Microsoft said.
