The design lab is available again on the Microsoft website. The platform for custom designs for the Xbox controller is back to offer from now on the possibility of completely coloring the new Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S controller to your liking, in order to achieve that distinctive touch you were looking for.
The return to colors
It’s been a few months since Microsoft decided to shut down its Xbox controller customization portal, and the reason now makes more sense than ever. The controls offered were those of Xbox One, so it was obvious that the manufacturer wanted to introduce a rest period to later give way to the new generation. And that’s just what they seem to have done since the design lab closed in October, as now, thankfully, it’s back, and with a ton of options available to choose from.
How can I customize the controller?
The new Xbox Design Lab portal will allow you to bring a new gamepad to life with a tremendous level of customization. And now we can use one of the new controls that arrive with the Xbox Series X and Xbox Series X as canvas, being able to choose between 18 different colors to apply them in areas such as the triggers, the analog sticks, the back of the control and even control buttons.
With a total of 8 different parts, the combinations become almost endless, so if you try hard, it will be difficult to find a similar controller. As a final culmination for your work, you will also have the opportunity to personalize the remote by laser engraving the message you want, so you will definitely be able to give it the personal touch you were looking for. Of course, you will only have 16 characters available to form the phrase, so you better be concise and not come too high with the message.
How much does it cost to make a custom remote?
Whatever the modification you make, regardless of whether you repeat more or fewer colors, the final price of the device will be 69.99 euros . Your personalized remote control will only cost a little more than an original remote control with a traditional design, and only a few euros more in the case that we compare it with a special edition launched on the market.
In the event that you select the option of laser engraving, in this case the price will be increased by 9.99 euros more for the engraving process, so you must take them into account when engraving that phrase that you already have in mind. .
How long will it take to receive my order?
The manufacturing process lasts approximately 28 days, so that will be the time you need to wait until your order arrives at your door. Rest assured that the wait will be worth it. Meanwhile, we have designed a controller inspired by the colors of Super Nintendo. How about? What colors would you choose to design your perfect controller? It will not be for lack of options …
