After the arrival of the black controller model and the white version [Microsoft](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/xbox-elite-2-core) started selling last autumn, the Xbox 'Elite Series 2' controller will now be offered in two more colors: red and blue. The 'Series 2' Core gamepad comes with a dual analog stick tension adjustment tool, a controller, and a braided USB-C to USB-A cable.

The interchangeable sticks, D-pad, and back-button triggers are not included. On the [Xbox One](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/8bitdo-rare-xbox), [Xbox Series X](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/velocity-green), Series S, or Windows PC, the Xbox accessories software still allows for complete remapping of the controller's inputs. The extra parts are available separately, including a carrying bag for busy consumers. Pre-orders for the new controllers, retailing for $139.99, are being taken now.
