Bethesda celebrates current-gen Elder Scrolls Online with custom controllers

Feeling... horny?

The Elder Scrolls Online Blackwood is now available on current-gen consoles including Xbox Series S & X, and to celebrate Bethesda and parent company Xbox have partnered with We Are Robots for a fancy new customised controller.

“Mehrunes Dagon has been brought to life in Xbox controller form, ready to bring his brand of destruction to any who dare oppose the wielder,” Bethesda said in a press release. “It features his four horns, scarred and charred skin, crimson thumbsticks and Daedric lettering on the ABXY buttons.”

You can, of course, check it out above.

The Elder Scrolls Online is a legendary game and it was an honour to be able to create a controller for the exciting new Blackwood chapter,” Alex Kemp from We Are Robots said. “Working closely with the Bethesda ANZ team we designed the controller to capture the look and feel of Mehrunes Dagon, as if the controller had just arrived through the Gates of Oblivion.”

Ten limited-edition controllers will be available once only through giveaways in ANZ… and we’ve got it on good authority that one will be available through Stevivor (so stay tuned!). Additional controllers will be available, likely, through other outlets alongside Bethesda ANZ & Xbox ANZ social media channels.

The Elder Scrolls Online Blackwood is available now on PC and heads to Xbox One, Xbox Series S, Xbox Series X, PS4 and PS5 on 8 June. We previewed Blackwood here.
