Where To Buy The Xbox Lunar Shift Special Edition Controller
Xbox has officially stated that the controller is available both on Xbox.com and in local retailers, but as of the time of writing this, there’s nothing on major retailers. We expect it to be available at the following places, though:
Since the controller is specifically labeled as a special edition controller, it’ll likely not be available for very long, so it’s worth snapping up as soon as you can or you’ll face the FOMO of not having the new cool technology.

What makes the Xbox Lunar Shift Special Edition Controller so special is that the color of the controller changes depending on the position of the light. If you can position the controller just right it’ll flicker between silver to gold, and also has rubberized gray and black grips. There’s even a textured grip on the bumpers, meaning you’ll be able to get instantly comfortable while playing your favorite games.
