Designer video game controllers offer a colorful alternative to the monochrome pads that most of us use, and Xbox has a new collection coming out. Xbox's Designed for Xbox label dropped a collection of pastel controllers back in Spring 2022, and its second collection features significantly more sparkles this time around.

The collection includes an "ultraviolet edition" of the Audeze Maxwell wireless gaming headset, which has a blue-purple gradient color scheme that wouldn't be out of place in a vaporwave music video. The collection also has two color schemes for the Hyperkin's version of the Xbox 360 Controller--the Xenon--including Cosmic Night and Twilight Galaxy.

And, of course, the collection also has several color schemes for variations of the standard Xbox controller, including a Sparkle version of the PowerA Advantage Wired Controller, as well as Frosted Diamond and Austalian Opal for PDP Wired Controllers.

There's also a summer collection version of the WD_BLACK D30 SSD for Xbox, if you really want to get stylish.

Regardless of your personal preferences, there's probably an item in this collection that appeals to you, and most of them are quite reasonably priced. Even if you'd prefer to stick to more traditional pad colors, it's nice that these options exist. Various parts of the collection launch on different dates, so make sure you double-check their availability before you buy.
