The Fallout hype practice is working additional time to get everybody excited for the April 12 launch of the Fallout TV Present on Prime Video. Along with the announcement of Fallout S.P.E.C.I.A.L. Anthology of video games which you could pre-order, and Prime Gaming even providing some PC titles at no cost for Prime subscribers, Xbox has simply introduced a brand new Fallout-themed customization possibility becoming a member of the Xbox Design Lab.
The brand new design encompasses a collage of various iterations of Vault Boy, the official mascot of the Fallout franchise, along with a Vault-Tec-themed Xbox brand on the prime of the controller. I’ll admit that the brand new remedy seems to be fairly cool, however the further value is questionable. It prices $5 greater than the opposite customized designs, but I’m unsure that it’s price it. One thing about paying $84.98 (at minimal) for an Xbox controller doesn’t sit proper with me.
Similar to the remainder of the customized shade remedies out there from the Xbox Design Lab, the brand new Fallout theme will be mixed with the bevy of different customization choices. If you happen to make the triggers and D-Pad metallic, you’ll be able to spend near $100 earlier than tax.
In protection of this new design, it’s not like different Design Lab controllers are reasonably priced. Heck, I’m personally responsible of spending $149.95 by myself customized Elite Sequence 2 controller from the Xbox Design Lab. However this Fallout theme isn’t the implausible Elite controller. It’s simply Microsoft’s normal (but superb) wi-fi controller, which might bought in white at Amazon for $45. At $80 and better, Microsoft is testing the bounds of what individuals are keen to pay for a beauty improve to a controller hasn’t modified in roughly 4 years.
