Microsoft has announced a new line of wireless controllers for the Xbox One. The Tech Series should mainly distinguish itself with external features. The back has a rubber layer with a ribbed surface, which should provide more grip.

The first new wireless controller in the Tech Series is the Recon Tech Special Edition. Microsoft says it was inspired by military technology when designing. The Recon Tech Special Edition controller is dark gray with a line pattern on the front.

In terms of functionality, such as button mapping, there are no changes from other Xbox One wireless controllers. However, the rubber grip texture with diamond pattern on the back is new. Microsoft will make the first Tech Series controller available on April 25 this year. The company mentions a suggested retail price of 70 euros, but adds that any VAT is added. In that case, the price of the controller is almost 85 euros.
