Starfield Xbox wireless controller and headset plans seemingly leaked

Microsoft is planning to launch two Starfield-themed Xbox accessories, it’s been claimed.

According to dataminer billbil-kun, who has an excellent track record of product leaks, Microsoft will unveil a special edition Xbox controller and wireless headset at next month’s Xbox Games Showcase.

The digital event will take place on June 11 and be directly followed by a Starfield Direct presentation, offering a deep-dive into Bethesda’s sci-fi RPG.

The limited edition Starfield controller will reportedly cost $79.99 / €74.99, with the headset priced at $124.99 / €124.99.

Starfield was originally scheduled to be released last November, but in May of 2022 the game was delayed to the first half of 2023.

In March, Bethesda announced a further delay, with Starfield now targeting a September 6 release date.

“We have poured ourselves into this game and even I’m surprised how much we can pour, it is large,” Starfield director Todd Howard said at the time.
