Xbox Australia has announced in a special press release that it is due to release a brand new Xbox One controller. This is not any old standard Xbox One controller because this one is greaseproof!
Only 200 of these controllers have been released worldwide so they are sure to be a rare and highly sought after item! It’s the type of controller you can use while you are eating greasy chicken and KFC and still play video games without making too much of a mess.
You can read more details about how to get this special PUBG controller in the press release issued down below. It sounds like this will be exclusive only to Australia.
Carrying the PLAYERUNKNOWN’S BATTLEGROUNDS signature colour scheme and designed with winning in mind, the award-winning Xbox wireless controllers that fans know and love has been applied with a patented special coating resistant to grease and oil. The hand sprayed urethane coating is impervious to minor scratches, water, and of course – roast chicken grease. To finish, each unit is stamped with the PLAYERUNKNOWN’S BATTLEGROUNDS logo and its unique number, with only 200 produced worldwide.
To mark the launch of 1.0, ten lucky fans will be rewarded with a specially-made greaseproof Xbox wireless controller of their own, made available via the Xbox ANZ Facebook page this week. Those who are lucky enough to receive a limited-edition Xbox wireless controller can say goodbye to the greasy fingers of yesterday and hello to the sweet victory of tomorrow: no longer will chicken dinners slip through a player’s fingers.
“With such a massive player base, from the veterans of Erangel, to the Miramar rookies, PLAYERUNKNOWN’S BATTLEGROUNDS is a game where truly anything can happen,” says Tania Chee, Xbox Lead for ANZ. “The launch of 1.0 brings the much-anticipated Sanhok Map and much more to Xbox One, enhancing the experience of the fantastically popular game, and we’re happy to have created such special gear for the occasion.”
PUBG is out now for both PC and Xbox One. It will be interesting to see if Microsoft ever releases more of these controllers worldwide if demand is high enough!
