Next month with the release of DOOM The Dark Ages, Microsoft is organizing an event by marketing a collection of accessories inspired by the medieval universe of id Software’s title. This includes two controllers, one standard and another Elite, along with a skin for the Xbox Series. Each item obviously adopts the aesthetic of the DOOM license, featuring engraved runes, metallic finishes, dark tones, and some emblems linked to The Slayer. For example, the classic wireless Xbox controller displays a matte green finish marked by battles, splashes of blood, and a red directional stick, referencing the heart of The Slayer’s armor. By purchasing this controller, users gain access to exclusive downloadable content for the game: the “DOOM Slayer Executioner” skin.
Those who choose the Xbox Elite Series 2 controller will receive an additional color option, featuring incandescent red adorned with the DOOM-guy seal. Additionally, those looking to enhance their Xbox Series X console can do so with a cover that transforms the machine into a demonic artifact, thanks to its textured black design and hell-related inscriptions, noting that even the interior of the cover has been meticulously styled. These exclusive accessories are available only on the Microsoft Store.
