The Sky Cipher Special Edition Xbox controller is a retro-inspired gaming peripheral designed with 90s-era video game consoles and controllers in mind to provide a modernized way to keep the aesthetic alive.
The controller is characterized by its see-through all-blue finish that allows the various internal components to be visible from the exterior. This see-through form is further accentuated by the use of metallic silver components on the interior that will shine through and reveal themselves with inspection.
