Xbox’s Latest Controller: Ghost Cipher Special Edition Wireless
Xbox enthusiasts, rejoice! The newly released Ghost Cipher Special Edition Wireless Controller is now available for $59.49 on Amazon. This unique controller, part of Xbox’s expanding lineup, was launched earlier this month, and if you missed out on preordering, now is your opportunity to snag one at a discounted price. The Ghost Cipher is the second model in Xbox’s transparent Cipher series, following the first controller in the lineup, the blue Sky Cipher, which hit the shelves in August. Both controllers are currently on sale at Amazon, with the Sky Cipher also available as part of an enticing bundle deal that includes a Kindle Fire Stick 4K and 1-Month of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate for just $15 more than the standalone controller.

While the internals remain the same, externally is where this controller shines, as it sports a transparent clear design, silver interior, metallic features, and more. The Ghost Cipher Special Edition released October 8, and Amazon’s current deal is the best yet.
The new design allows you to get a really good look at what’s inside of the peripheral. The clear transparent top case is complemented by metallic and silver interior parts that shine through from the inside, while the bronze metallic triggers, matching D-pad, and ash grey rubberized grips add some elegant finishing touches.

As mentioned, the Ghost Cipher is the second controller in the new Cipher series. If you really like the color blue and transparent electronics, the Sky Cipher is the controller for you. Launched in August, the Sky Cipher Special Edition Wireless Controller is on sale for $60 at Amazon and Walmart.
The Cipher series retains all the features that make the Xbox Wireless Controller a reliable device, with its robust construction, durable face buttons, and a convenient share button. Compatible with Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PC, and smartphones via Bluetooth, this controller is versatile and comfortable for extended gaming sessions. Additionally, it boasts excellent battery life and gives users the option to use regular AA batteries or a rechargeable battery pack.
If you’re into customization, head over to Xbox Design Lab where you can create your own custom transparent Elite Series 2 controller. In addition to the Cipher Series, Xbox offers two new chromatic D-pad and paddle designs–Energy Chroma and Sunset Chroma–to add more colors and options to their controllers.
