The gorgeous Starfield Xbox Wireless Controller includes a not-so-gorgeous dynamic dashboard background.

FULL STORY ======================================================================

The gorgeous Starfield Xbox Wireless Controller was officially revealed
during the Starfield Direct. But it bundles an extra feature that wasn't mentioned during that presentation.

The Verge's Tom Warren shared the appearance of a dynamic dashboard
background that comes with the Starfield Xbox Wireless Controller . It's a fairly understated background, featuring trippy animated swirls of what appears to be a distorted galactic map from the game. If you're keen to own
it yourself, here's our guide on where to buy the Starfield Xbox controller .

The dynamic background itself certainly isn't as bombastic as the one for Diablo 4 , which features antagonist Lilith amidst an intense fiery backdrop. That may disappoint fans hoping for something more eye-catching, like a vista of distant planets or the busy streets of Starfield's massive New Atlantis city . Still, it's a nice free bonus for anyone who's dropped cash on the Starfield controller. the Xbox Starfield controller also unlocks a new Starfield Xbox Dynamic Background on Xbox Series S / X consoles https://t.co/0rlFulP3zq pic.twitter.com/0vKSiHNFS2 June 13, 2023 See more

It's a much subtler dynamic background than the vibrant gamepad would lead
you to believe. While the Starfield controller and headset stun with a unique design scheme, the background does just look like something you could find anywhere. It doesn't immediately make me think of the Bethesda Game Studios title. Still, it's hardly off-putting and will make for a nice background for those after something that doesn't distract.

While the Starfield limited edition Xbox Wireless Controller is available to buy now, we're still a few months away from the actual game's launch on September 6. However, if you want to buy the Constellation Edition which includes a real, working smartwatch , you may want to pre-order while stocks last. You can read up on our Starfield pre-order guide to find out which retailers are selling the game in your region.
