New Xbox Controller Colors Hit Amazon
Just a few days after we reported that the Xbox Elite Series 2 Core Wireless Controller is getting three new colors that are exclusive to Best Buy, two new colours have appeared on Amazon. And the best part is that they are on sale right now, which is pretty exciting.
Robot White and Soft Melon Variants
So, the fresh color options are Robot White and Soft Melon. The former looks much like the standard white version, but instead of black thumbsticks, white shoulder buttons, and a black Xbox button, the Robot White version has white thumbsticks, ash-grey shoulder buttons, and a white Xbox button instead. The Soft Melon variant has a gold faceplate and underside, with matching thumbsticks, D-pad, and ABXY buttons. The shoulder buttons are a different shade of gold and don’t have the matte finish of the faceplate. However, just like the other colors, the rubberized grips are black all over.
