are preconfigured using Xbox&#8217;s Design Lab. Design Lab is a service Microsoft offers that lets players create a uniquely designed Xbox controller. You can customize pretty much every piece of the controller, from the front and rear shell to the grips, buttons, and thumbsticks. An interesting fact is that, at the moment, none of these controllers can be imitated in Design Lab since the shell colors (red, blue, and translucent green) are unavailable.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">The Elite Series 2 Core is the official premium controller for Xbox. The Core model is physically identical to the previous generation $200 Xbox Elite Series 2 controller, with integrated pro gaming features like adjustable-tension thumbsticks, wrap-around rubberized grip, and shorter hair trigger locks. The only<em> <\/em>difference is that the original Elite controller comes with more accessories: extra sets of paddles, thumbsticks, D-pad, and a travel case. The Elite Series 2 Core doesn&#8217;t come with any of those accessories. You can buy them separately as a component pack for $59.99.<\/p>\n<section class=\"box-wrapper jsx-2673806401\">\n<aside class=\"card jsx-1339469126 jsx-1178573261 box jsx-2627838217\" data-cy=\"aside\">\n<h3 data-cy=\"title3\" class=\"title3 jsx-12333944 jsx-3517023867\">How to Follow IGN Deals Recommendations<\/h3>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">The IGN Deals team has over 30 years of combined experience finding the best discounts and preorders available online.
