Microsoft hosted the Xbox Games Showcase 2023 last night. At the event, the company introduced a new special edition Xbox controller and headset, dubbed as the Xbox Wireless Controller – Starfield Limited Edition and the Xbox Wireless Headset – Starfield Limited Edition.

“Embark on a journey into the stars with the Starfield Limited Edition wireless controller and headset, essential navigation pieces in every voyager’s collection. The crisp, clean designs are inspired by real world spacecraft, and are custom built to transport you right into the cockpit of a true space explorer,” Microsoft wrote in a blog post announcing the development.

The newly launched headset and the Xbox controller are inspired from an upcoming game — Starfield — by Bethesda Game Studios.

For the unversed, the game is set in the year 2330, when “humanity has ventured beyond our solar system, settling new planets, and living as a spacefaring people”. In the game, players will join Constellation – the last group of space explorers seeking rare artefacts throughout the galaxy – and navigate the vast expanse of space in the game. In the game, players will also be able to venture through the stars and explore more than 1,000 planets, navigate bustling cities, meet and recruit new characters. They will also be able to pilot and command a personalised ship and use various weapons in the zero-gravity condition.

Starfield is available for pre-orders at the moment, and it will be available to Xbox Game Pass subscribers as on Xbox Series S and Xbox Series X controllers starting September 6.
