Coming up alongside the Titanfall<\/em><\/a> launch on March 11th, Microsoft will ship a companion limited edition controller for the Xbox One first-person shooter from EA<\/a> and Respawn Entertainment<\/a>. <\/p>\n

The design and art teams at Xbox and Respawn collaborated on the controller’s development, a design intended to represent “a piece of military spec hardware transported from the universe of Titanfall<\/em> and into players hands.” More specifically, the controller was created to look like the C-101 carbine used in the game by elite Titan pilots. A piece of military hardware isn’t exactly the first thing that comes to mind when I see the controller, but I don’t care because it sure is one slick, futuristic-looking gamepad nonetheless.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The Titanfall<\/em> controller is now available for US pre-order on the Microsoft online store for $64.99<\/a>. No, you didn’t misread that value; the controller is more expensive than the game itself. <\/p>\n

But hey, if you don’t have the scratch to buy one head over to Major Nelson’s blog, where the Xbox Live maestro is giving away two of the controllers<\/a>.<\/p>\n
