New Xbox Controllers Let Players Game with Dirty Fingers
Justin Lam — September 10, 2018 — Tech
Snacking while gaming can often leave controllers a mess, but the new Xbox grease-proof controllers let players eat and game with abandon. Offered in celebration of PlayerUnknown's BattleGrounds official release, this new controller comes with a distinct polyurethane coating. This material is generally used in plastics, sponges and sealants, and was developed for the controllers in conjunction with ColorWare.
The design of the greaseproof controller takes inspiration from PlayerUnknown's BattleGrounds and comes in a soft gray with yellow accents. The controller will also feature the title of the game etched on its various parts.
Those hoping to get their hands on the grease-proof controllers will have a difficult time, as only 200 units will be released around the world. In Australia, 10 will be distributed and are only available through a contest on Xbox's Facebook page.
