- A new Xbox Wireless Controller has been officially revealed
- The new Pulse Cipher color variant is dazzling red
- It comes after the Ghost Cipher and Sky Cipher controllers
Microsoft has officially unveiled its latest special edition Xbox Wireless Controller – the Pulse Cipher – which was only recently leaked by French store Dealabs.
An Xbox Wire post has all the details on this new gamepad and maintains the general look of the Cipher series we’ve seen so far. A translucent frame, solid underside with textured grips and triggers that stand out clearly with an almost metallic sheen – it’s all there, just in a beautiful dazzling red this time.
If you want to know when you can get your hands on it yourself, the Pulse Cipher Xbox Wireless Controller will be available from February 4th 2025 and will cost the usual $74.99 / £69.99. Nice.
The Pulse Cipher controller follows a similar naming convention to the Pulse Red Xbox wireless controller. It’s the third entry in the ‘Cipher’ series of gamepads, following the lovely blue of the Sky Cipher controller and the crystal clear Ghost Cipher pad. I imagine more will follow in the coming months and years (I’m personally hoping for a purple one).
