Special Edition Xbox Stereo Headset

The new Microsoft Special Edition Xbox Stereo Headset is going to be shipped with a translucent body, see-through ear cups and a green 20th-anniversary branding on the left side ear cup. The headsets are the same but Microsoft has tried to make some changes like green accents to the headphone design. Special Edition Xbox Stereo Headset has been set as $69.99 and it can be pre-ordered using Microsoft Store and Amazon. 

Special Edition Xbox Wireless Controller

Makers have added a translucent look for this new wireless controller which is somewhat similar to the classic controllers released years ago. External features like Xbox’s signature green hue on the home button, the D-Pad and rear grips, are a part of the controller.  Microsoft has released the same controller that is being given with the purchase of a new Series X and Series S, only the design and look has been changed. The controller also has Bluetooth support to connect to PCs and other devices. Special Edition Xbox Wireless Controller price has been set as $69.99 and it can be pre-ordered using Microsoft Store and Amazon.

Apart from this, Microsoft is currently busy trying to expand its Game Pass playlist for next-generation consoles. Makers have already kept some of the latest games like Fry Cry 6 and Back 4 Blood. It is not shocking to see Microsoft bring in new games for no additional price mostly because of its fierce competition, PS Plus which has a loyal subscriber base. More details about upcoming games for October is supposed to release soon.
