Xbox has today shown off its first Designed for Xbox Summer Collection providing a variety of gaming accessories in multiple bright and colourful options from controllers a headset and external storage. If you’re someone who loves a bit of flair with your peripherals then there is bound to be something for you to enjoy here.
The PowerA Advantage Wired controller is inspired by a deep-space nebular featuring glittering swirls of purple and gold truly standing out among the crowd. Officially licensed by Xbox, this controller features two additional mappable advanced gaming buttons which can be programmed on the fly as well as 3-Way trigger locks for game-specific trigger depth. Unfortunately, this controller is wired with a detachable 10ft USB-C cable.
The Sparkle is available now with a 2-year limited warranty for $37.99, visit PowerA.com for more information.
Going old-school with the Hyperkin Xenon Cosmic Night and Twilight galaxy controllers. These are officially licensed Xbox 360 controllers which are fully compatible with Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One and Windows 10/11 PCs. The two designs are polar opposites with Cosmic Night being black speckled with white spots replicating space and Twilight Galaxy with a iridescent purple and blue design. Both of these controllers are fitted with a share button for Xbox Series X/S, vibration feedback, precision analog triggers and a 10 ft, USB-C cable.
Both of these controllers are available for pre-order for an official launch on July 24th at a price of $49.99. Visit Hyperkinstore.com for more information.
WD’s D30 Game Drive SSD for the Xbox has been splashed with a sparkly and bright orange and blue design to really brighten up your room and storage.

The last two controller designs are the PDB wired controller in Frosted Diamond and Australian Opal designs. Both of these designs have been created to embody the “sparkle, shimmer and glitter” of summertime. Both of these controllers are wired with an 8-foot USB-C cable plus feature dual rumbles, impulse triggers, remappable buttons and built-in audio controls.
The PDP Frosted Diamond and Australian Opal Wired controllers are available now for $39.99, visit PDP.com for more information.
Finally we have the Audeze Macwell Ultraviolet Edition Wireless Gaming Headset which despite my love for minimalist and plain colours, I really like this headset. The shiny colour-shifting “ultraviolet” finish that encompasses the earcups and headband was done through an electroplating process and looks very nice. This headset is designed by Legendary planar magnetic headphone manufacturer Audeze and offers low latency wireless gaming with up to 80 hours of battery life. The headset features massive 90mm planar drivers and supports Bluetooth 5.3 LE Audio, Dolby Atmos and AI Noise Filtration.
The Audeze Maxwell Ultraviolet Edition Wireless Headset is available for pre-order with a fairly hefty $329.00 price tag and will launch on August 15th. Visit Audeze.com for more information.
