Xbox's latest addition, the Ghost Cipher Special Edition Wireless Controller, is currently available for $59.49 at Amazon. This sleek controller entered the expansive Xbox lineup earlier this month. If you missed the preorder, now is your opportunity to grab one of the most stylish Xbox controllers while saving some money. The Ghost Cipher is the second iteration in Xbox's transparent Cipher series. The first in the series, the blue Sky Cipher, debuted in August and is also on sale at Amazon, both individually and as part of an excellent bundle deal that includes a Kindle Fire Stick 4K and a 1-Month Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription for just $15 more than the controller's standalone price.

The Cipher series maintains all the features that make the Xbox Wireless Controller a versatile and reliable device. It boasts a sturdy construction, durable face buttons, and a handy share button. These features ensure compatibility not only with Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One consoles but also with PCs and smartphones via Bluetooth. While it may not match the advanced features of Sony's DualSense controller, the Ghost Cipher remains a comfortable choice for extended gaming sessions. It offers impressive battery life, allowing users to opt for regular AA batteries or a rechargeable battery pack.

At the Xbox Design Lab, you can also craft your own custom transparent Elite Series 2 controller. This collection is inspired by '90s and 2000s technology, featuring several retro-modern designs within the expanded Cipher series: Velocity, Astral, Surf, Candy, and Purple Cipher. Additionally, two new chromatic D-pad and paddle designs—Energy Chroma and Sunset Chroma—add more color options to the controllers.
