During Microsoft’s “Inside Xbox” on March 10th, a controller from the past makes an appearance but this time in style. “The Duke”, codename for the original Xbox’s giant controller, is revealed but with some modifications. Seamus Blackley, one of the Xbox’s original designers is working with Hyperkin on the controller. During the panel, Brackley shows off the controller’s animated screen in the center that plays the original Xbox boot-up logo. Nifty!

For those who want a comparison, the size between the Xbox One controller and “the Duke” is quite different. Though fans won’t complain to get their hands on the controller for their current Xbox console and PC.

However, while the controller is shown-off to be the neon green, it’s not available for the public. Only the black version will be available.

The controller that was once criticized for how large the controller was for gamers is coming out for the Xbox One and Windows 10 next month on April 30th, only at GameStop for $69.99.
