Xbox releases plenty of special edition controllers every year, but few are as cool as the new Cipher series. The first controller in the new line of transparent controllers released in August. Dubbed Sky Cipher, the recently released controller received its first discount at Amazon and Walmart, dropping the price from $70 to $60. This deal will likely sell out, so we recommend grabbing it while you can.
It is worth noting that Ghost Cipher Special Edition, the second controller in the series, will launch on October 8. Ghost Cipher Special Edition Xbox Wireless Controller for $64 at Walmart and $70 on Amazon.
$60 (instead of $70)
With a blue transparent top case, rubberized grips, and metallic sky blue accents, this is one of the coolest controller models for Xbox Series X|S. Of course, it will also work on PC and mobile, and has all the usual Xbox wireless controller technology. This includes a share button, a pairing button for quickly switching devices, and a 3.5mm stereo headphone jack.
Keep in mind that this controller uses AA batteries instead of a rechargeable battery, although you'll get up to 40 hours of battery life before needing to replace them. If you want a rechargeable controller, there are plenty of batteries you can purchase separately, including this officially licensed charging kit.
While there's no doubt that the Cipher series offers two of the most eye-catching designs, there are plenty of other Xbox Wireless Controller colors available, and you can save big on a number of them at Amazon and Walmart.
