Phantom White Xbox controller available in April

A special Phantom White Xbox controller was today announced by Microsoft.

Shown above and in a gallery below, the controller will be available from 2 April and will retail for $99.95 AUD. Pre-orders are available today at “select retailers” including the Microsoft Store.

“The Xbox Wireless Controller – Phantom White Special Editionis the second controller in our Phantom Series following the Phantom Black Special Edition,” Bree White, Global Product Marketing Manager, detailed.

“The design is the optimal blend of luxury and Sci-Fi, embodying a new slant on technical beauty. This controller reflects a sense of mystery with rich, neutral colors that fade away to reveal the technology inside. From top to bottom, this controller transitions from a high-tech translucent white with gold mechanical components underneath to an opaque matte white. The buttons, triggers, thumbsticks and bumpers are a sleek, glossy white with light grey accents. On the back, textured grips will help you stay on-target.”

Microsoft also confirmed that “in select markets, this controller comes with 14-day trials for Xbox Live Gold and Xbox Game Pass.” Australia has been confirmed as one of those regions.
