Controller users have now received another set of custom options. Both PDP and Microsoft have revealed new designs for the controllers including a Call of Duty theme by PDP for PS5 and Xbox along with translucent Xbox Elite 2 Controllers with colour options officially by Microsoft.
Ahead of the Call of Duty Black Ops 6 release, PDP have now revealed two new controllers, one for PS5 and the other for Xbox. The Victrix Pro BFG line-up is considered one of the best controllers for COD games and the new design called Field Op special edition is the latest entry. On the other hand, Xbox got a controller from the glow-in-the-dark line-up of Rematch Glow called Mister Peeks edition.
While both controllers look amazing, the PS5 variant comes with a hefty price tag with the Field Op special edition for Victrix Pro BFG priced at $199.99, although it does have ‘Hall Effect’ joysticks that prevent stick drift. The counterpart, Mister Peeks Rematch Glow for Xbox, is priced at $37.99.
