Summary
Xbox has showcased new design templates on the Xbox Design Lab website, which give a nod to the recently releasedShattered SpaceDLC forStarfield. With new bosses, factions, and weapons, among other things, Bethesda plans to rejuvenateStarfieldwith the new expansion that just came out on September 30.
When it comes to custom controllers, Xbox is one of the major names as it frequently releases controllers with a new look or with a special edition theme. Just recently, the console giant revealed its newGhost Cipher Xbox controller, and there are already rumors of another new controller being on the way. However, before any of those options hit the shelves, Xbox has made availableStarfield: Shattered Space-based controller templates for players to use.
As spotted onXbox Design Lab’s homepage, there are two unique controller templates inspired byStarfield’sShattered Spaceexpansion. One of them is a solid color design for the standard Xbox Series controller, whereas the other is a transparent design for theXbox Elite Series 2 controller. Players can click on the “Design Elite” or “Design Standard” buttons right under the DLC-inspired templates to pick and start further customizing any of the two designs. Without any additional customizations, the standard version would cost buyers USD 87.96, and the Elite version would cost USD 159.98.
Starfield: Shattered Space Controller Templates Are Available Now
Both the controller design templates bear similar pink and purple hues inspired by theShattered Spaceexpansion. However, they only bear color themes and no other design detail, like the Constellation markings featured on thespecial editionStarfieldXbox controller. These differences separate the special edition accessories at the time of the game’s launch from the simpler design templates available right now. Besides Shattered Space-themed controllers, more controller designs based on new games, includingEpic Mickey: Rebrushed,FC 25, andLollipop Chainsaw: RePOP, are also up for order.
Now that theShattered SpaceDLC is out, it will be interesting to see how that benefitsStarfield’s growth. Keeping in mind that the game’s player count has been on the decline over the past months, Bethesda would hope the new expansion hits the ground running by first boosting those numbers. Understandably, the developer-publisher would also want the DLC to have animpact somewhat similar to the levels ofShadow of the ErdtreeDLCinElden Ring’s case. Over the next few weeks, it may become clear whether Bethesda’s attempt to bolsterStarfieldwithShattered Space’s launch is working or not.
