Microsoft’s perpetually expanding line-up of wireless Xbox controllers continues to flourish with a new ‘sustainable’ variant released to coincide with this year’s impending Earth Day.
The new Xbox Wireless Controller – Remix Special Edition, as it’s known, takes some design inspiration from nature, sporting a two-tone green facade – apparently drawing on lichen found in the Pacific Northwest Forest – as well as earthy grips finished with a topographic pattern. It also incorporates a blue underside, presumably representing the sky, or the sea, or a blueberry.
As for the sustainability bit, one third of the controller is made from a mix of reclaimed materials (including plastic jugs and CDs) and regrind – regrind, in this instance, being a process that mechanically recycles leftover Xbox One controller parts into a raw material that can be used to partially create new controllers, Microsoft explains.
