Microsoft officially announced the Stormcloud Vapor Xbox Special Edition controller and it’s releasing August 8, 2023. The Stormcloud Vapor controller features a dynamic dark navy swirl, each with its own energy and pattern. The design is inspired by clouds and storming skies, with each billowing puff of vapor bringing a unique design to each controller. It also features rubberized, blue diamond-pattern grips on the back case.

By purchasing the Stormcloud Vapor Xbox Controller you’ll unlock a brand new Dynamic Background for your Xbox Dashboard. To access the background you just have to connect the controller to your Xbox Series XlS. The Dynamic Background features blue swirls in different tones.

The Stormcloud Vapor Xbox Special Edition controller was leaked a few weeks ago when it was codenamed ‘jemez’. It turns out the controller is not connected with the upcoming release of Forza Motorsport like we initially thought it was.

You can now pre-order the Stormcloud Vapor Controller for $69.99 USD.
