Xbox’s Ghost Cipher Special Edition Wireless Controller is now available for a discounted price of $59.49. Launched earlier this month, this controller features a captivating transparent design that sets it apart in the expanding lineup of Xbox controllers. If you missed the preorder opportunity, now is the perfect time to grab this unique piece.
The Ghost Cipher is the second release in Xbox’s innovative transparent Cipher series. Following the debut of the blue Sky Cipher in August, which is also currently on sale, customers can take advantage of bundle deals that include additional products like a Kindle Fire Stick 4K and a 1-Month Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription for just $15 more.
This new controller showcases a stunning transparent exterior, offering a glimpse of its silver interior and metallic features. Released on October 8, the Ghost Cipher’s current price represents an excellent deal. The clear casing is elegantly accented with bronze metallic triggers, a matching D-pad, and ash grey rubberized grips, creating a sophisticated aesthetic.
The Cipher series maintains the essential qualities of the Xbox Wireless Controller, renowned for its durability and functionality. With a robust construction and reliable face buttons, the controller supports Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One consoles alongside wireless connectivity for PCs and smartphones via Bluetooth. While the design may not have all the advancements of competing models, it offers comfort for extended gaming sessions and exceptional battery life, compatible with both AA batteries and rechargeable packs.
Additionally, gamers can express their creativity at the Xbox Design Lab, where custom transparent Elite Series 2 controllers inspired by nostalgic ’90s and 2000s technology are available. The expanded Cipher series boasts retro-modern designs such as Velocity, Astral, Surf, Candy, and Purple Cipher, alongside two new vibrant D-pad and paddle options—Energy Chroma and Sunset Chroma—that enhance the customization experience.
