Microsoft has announced a trio of unique new Xbox Wireless special edition controllers. It’s called the Breaker series, and it includes three new controllers of various colors, united by a jagged design style that looks quite stylish. They’re all available for preorder for $79.99, with a September 9 release date. You can see them at Microsoft Store or check the Amazon page, where the listings are gradually being populated (full listings should be up soon, and I'll update this page when they are).
There’s the blue-tinged Ice Breaker, the black-and-white Storm Breaker, and the Heart Breaker, which is purple, pink, and blue. Each one has textured grips, as well as unique elements we’ll get into below.
Xbox Wireless Controller - Ice Breaker Special Edition
The Ice Breaker controller has a cool, uh, icy design, with blue, light blue, white shards on its face. The non-painted parts of the front of the controller are translucent white, giving it some nice depth. It also has various shades of light blue on its thumbsticks, face buttons, and D-pad. And the grips are textured, so it won’t slip out of your hands like ice. The overall effect is pretty striking.
Xbox Wireless Controller - Heart Breaker Special Edition
If the colors of the other two Breaker series Xbox controllers are somewhat subtle, that’s not a problem for the Heart Breaker controller. Its face features bold pink, purple, and blue shards on translucent pink plastic. The sticks are purple and the D-pad is pink, and the face buttons have pink letters on purple backgrounds.
