One of Microsoft's biggest contributions to the gaming industry, the Xbox series of consoles first launched in 2001 with major technological improvements over time.

With the addition of a new officially licensed Pro BFG Wireless Controller, fans of the console will be able to enjoy a fresh style of high-performance gaming.
The new Victrix Pro BFG Wireless Controller, officially licensed for Xbox, will be coming in February 2024, with pre-orders beginning in January. The Pro BFG Wireless Controller gained popularity as one of the best controllers for PlayStation and PC, with many esports athletes voicing their support for the Pro BFG's customization and comfort.

Designed specifically for esports, the Xbox Pro BFG Wireless Controller will offer a variety of high-performance features and customization options. Key components of the controller's design include full wireless and wired compatibility, modularity, button-mapping, multi-clutch triggers, low latency, in-app customization, and award-winning technology. Xbox fans will be able to modify the controller to suit their preferred playstyle and will be able to seamlessly swap between Xbox and PC with Game Pass Ultimate and the Xbox Pro BFG.
