New Electric Volt Xbox Controller Is Available Now

The striking new Electric Volt Xbox wireless controller is available to order at the Microsoft Store for $65. It comes with free two- to three-day shipping. Meanwhile, Best Buy's listing still says "coming soon," and Amazon's preorder page has completely disappeared after briefly being available to order late last month. The other new color, Daystrike Camo, isn't available to order just yet, but Best Buy's listing says it will release May 7. The Daystrike Camo model will cost $70.

Both controllers can be used across all of Microsoft's devices, including PC, Xbox Series X|S, and Xbox One as well as other devices like Macs, Android devices, and iPhones. The two controllers feature a hybrid D-pad, a headphone jack, textured grips and triggers, and a USB-C port.
