Microsoft has announced a pair of highly-detailed Gears of War: E-Day<\/a> Limited Edition 3D-moulded Xbox controllers, which look just as gruff and grizzled as you’d expect.<\/p>\n

The offering is headlined by the Gears of War: E-Day Limited Edition, which features charred black 3D-sculpted grips and blood-red core. Then there’s the Gears of War: E-Day Limited Edition with Xbox Design Lab, which features a silver skull and two crossed Chainsaw Lancers that you can customize further.<\/p>\n

Expect to pay $89.99 \/ \u00a384.99 \/ \u20ac89.99 for the main Gears of War: E-Day Limited Edition controller \u2014 exactly the same price as the previous limited edition Forza Horizon 6 controller \u2014 with pre-orders going live now ahead of its official launch on September 30. The Design Lab controller, meanwhile, will be available on September 30.<\/p>\n

As with any modern Xbox controller, you can use these pads on Xbox Series X\/S, Windows 10\/11 PCs, mobile phones and tablets. Oh, and Xbox One.<\/p>\n

A Gears of War: E-Day 8BitDo Ultimate Charging Dock for Xbox controllers will also be available, compatible with Xbox One and Xbox Series X\/S controllers. The dock features magnetic alignment for easy placement, drop-and-charge functionality, and built-in protection against overcharging and overheating. <\/p>\n

As for Gears of War: E-Day itself, the alien-stomping shooter is out October 6 for PC and Xbox Series X\/S and confirmed to be a console exclusive, meaning it will never launch on PlayStation<\/a>. An open beta is currently available, though some players are being put off by some classic sweaty Gears movement<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“The tried-and-true Gears gameplay with my usual combo of Gnasher and Longshot works as well as I’ve always remembered,” IGN wrote in our recent Gears of War: E-Day multiplayer hands-on preview<\/a>. “And tossing a frag into a Locust hole to nip the wave in the bud is as satisfying as it’s always been.”<\/p>\n
