You must be wondering – weren’t the Xbox Wireless Controllers already available at local retailers?
Prior to this announcement, the only way you can officially (keyword) obtain these is in Singapore, but Microsoft is slowly expanding its reach and making its products and services officially available in the region, including the Philippines, similar to PC Game Pass. This can only mean good things for Xbox fans in the country moving forward!
For now, players can choose from the six variants, and here’s hoping we finally get to see more official accessories and variants for the Xbox in the coming weeks and months.
