The Classic Xbox 360 Controller is Back and Better Than Ever.
The Xbox 360 controller is a classic piece of gaming hardware that many gamers have grown to love. Hyperkin, a third-party accessory maker, has announced that they are bringing back the Xbox 360 controller, by creating a set of officially licensed wired 360 pads for Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S. These controllers will be available in four different variations, namely White, Black, Red, and Pink, and are now up for pre-order on the Hyperkin website. This article will provide all the details about the new Xbox 360 controllers, including their features, availability, and how to pre-order them.
The new Xbox 360 controller is named the 'Xenon' and is a wired USB-C controller. The name 'Xenon' is a reference to the chipsets found in the original Xbox 360 console. The controller comes with precision analog impulse triggers, vibration feedback, a 3.5mm headset jack, and menu, view, and share buttons like modern Xbox controllers. This means that you can use this controller not only with your Xbox 360 but also with your Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S consoles.
The Hyperkin website has made available four different variations of the 'Xenon' Xbox controller, and gamers can choose from White, Black, Red, and Pink colors. These colors are vibrant and add a fresh look to the classic Xbox 360 controller. Whether you are a die-hard fan of the original Xbox 360 or a new gamer, the different colors make it easy to choose a controller that suits your style.
The new Xbox 360 controllers are now available for pre-order on the Hyperkin website. The release date for these controllers is set for June, so gamers can expect to have them in their hands soon. Pre-ordering is a great way to secure your controller before they sell out, especially if you have a specific color in mind. These controllers are priced affordably, and you can purchase them for $24.99 each.
One of the most significant advantages of the new Xbox 360 controllers is their compatibility with modern Xbox consoles, such as Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S. This means that gamers can now use the classic Xbox 360 controller to play games on the newer consoles, making the gaming experience even more enjoyable. Additionally, the wired connection ensures a lag-free gaming experience, making it perfect for competitive gaming.
Hyperkin has gone the extra mile to ensure that the new Xbox 360 controllers have a similar design to the original Xbox 360 controller. However, they have added some modern features to make them even better. For example, the menu, view, and share buttons have been added to make the controllers more versatile. The vibration feedback feature provides haptic feedback during gameplay, making it feel more realistic. Additionally, the precision analog impulse triggers allow for accurate and responsive gameplay.
The release of the new Xbox 360 controllers by Hyperkin is not their first foray into bringing back classic gaming hardware. They previously released the OG Xbox 'Duke' controller, which was also officially licensed. The release of the Xbox 360 controllers is a continuation of this venture and seems to be successful, considering that they are now offering a second classic controller.
