As one of the highly anticipated releases of the year, the Microsoft Xbox Series X is living up to its hype with the news that the beloved all-star Xbox 360 Controller will be making its way to the console in June 2021.
While the new console is packed with advanced features, a welcome throwback to its predecessor will be the return of the iconic gaming controller. With its precision edition triggers, 4 new rear paddles, and improved ergonomic shape, gamers will appreciate getting access to the classic design essentials of the old Xbox 360, as well as the latest technology of the Series X.
Moreover, the controller will be fully compatible with the Xbox One and Windows 10, enabling gamers to use their existing controllers with the new console. This means that gamers won’t have to spend extra money on new controllers. Additionally, up to 8 controllers can be connected to the Xbox Series X (unlike the other Xbox systems that allowed only 4 controllers).
The timing of the controller’s release is definitely perfect, as the Series X will arrive with a whole host of new games. From the new Forza Motorsport, Halo: Infinite, and Fable titles, to SEGA’s exclusive Yakuza: Like a Dragon and the World War-based game Verdun, the wide selection of game titles will guarantee plenty of hours of immersive gaming experiences. And with the Xbox 360 Controller, fans can enjoy the nostalgic fantasy gameplay and smooth control of the Xbox 360 games they know and love.
For those who have decided to make the switch to the Xbox Series X, the good news is that the controller will be available for purchase in June. With the upgrades that it provides, it’s set to be the perfect companion for the much-awaited console. And it will provide a pleasant reminder of the days of the beloved Xbox 360.
