While Sony Interactive Entertainment is creating the debate on the high price of its Pro controller, the DualSense Edge, on the Microsoft side, we remain calm and we continue the presentations on the possibility of customizing your Xbox Elite Series 2 controller. what was done a few years ago with the Xbox Design Lab and standard controllers, it is now possible to fully customize your pro pad. In order to go a little further in the presentations, the American manufacturer invites us to visit the kitchens of this workshop run by women, and in particular Monique Chatterjee, Design Manager within the Xbox Design Lab, but also at the head of everything which is the creation of Xbox brand collector's products. The incredible quality of controllers and collector consoles is his doing. She is accompanied by other women who hold key positions, in order to inject this pronounced taste for the right combination of colors. We are shown that it is possible to associate the 8 body colors of the controller with the 24 color accents available, in order to offer countless possibilities. We can of course customize everything, as long as your wallet allows it.
It is recalled that the base price of the Xbox Elite Series 2 amounts to € 139,99 without any options and that the additions of color and registration increase the note each time. The laser inscription of our name, our Gamertag or a personalized 16-character message raises the bill to €149,98. If we opt for the complete Elite set (which includes 4 paddles, 4 more joysticks, an additional BMD, a carrying case, a charger and a USB cable), we arrive at € 199,99, a saving of €29,97 compared to the separate purchase of each of the elements. Full options, the customized Xbox Elite Series 2 therefore costs €209,98. Which will remain less expensive than Sony's DualSense and its € 239,99 requested for the basic model.
