Red Xbox One controller set to hit stores on January 10

If crimson is your color of choice, Microsoft has a new Xbox One Wireless Controller on the way that should be rather appealing. Sporting a couple of different bloody shades on its front and rear, the new red Xbox Wireless Controller is available for pre-order now (opens in new tab) with a release date set for January 10.
Following up on the release of other colors with thrilling names like Dawn Shadow and blue, the red controller is available for $64.99 and features a pretty distinct color scheme. Of course, you could get a fairly close approximation of this controller's design using the Xbox Design Lab{.nofollow}. However, the new red model is not only cheaper (by around $15), but it also features a shade of red on the rear and buttons that simply isn't available in the lab.
If you're interested, you can pre-order the red controller now from both Microsoft and GameStop. Curiously, GameStop is claiming the controller is exclusive to its store despite its appearance at the Microsoft Store.

Subjective, I actually like it.

Not bad, but I miss the colours on the buttons.

Wow, I almost brought a controller last week. Now I am happy that I can wait just a few weeks to get one of these.

Very nice!

This is nice, but it's much prefer the Gears of War version... It sells for As much as £45 when discounted!!!!

With Design Lab, MS said new markets would become available in early 2017... Hoping for the UK to get the ability to customise soon, my controller is getting a bit worn and I'd love one of my own colour scheme.

For some reason, it looks to me like it should be branded with Deadpool.

Satan's Xbox controller.

Very Nice, would go well with my, Elite Matt Black, Battlefield 1 Camo Green and Lunar White controllers.
