The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt<\/em><\/strong> celebrates its 10th anniversary this month, and we at CD Projekt Red have commemorated the milestone by collaborating with the Xbox team to create a tempered and battle-ready controller for players looking to expand their witcher\u2019s toolkit. Embark on the path with the Xbox Wireless Controller \u2013 The Witcher 3<\/em> 10th Anniversary Special Edition<\/a> and Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2 \u2013 Core The Witcher 3<\/em> 10th Anniversary Special Edition<\/a>. This is such a special moment for both our teams, and we wanted to share some insight into how Geralt\u2019s journey brought this design to life.<\/p>\n Our team has put great care into representing the style of The Witcher 3 <\/em>and Geralt himself, headlined by the wolf medallion iconography at the center of the controller. The medallion acts as a constant for Geralt, one that allows him to adventure and warns him of lurking dangers, and we want players to connect with these controllers in the same way. We love how the design fits the layout of the controller, with the wolf\u2019s head coming below the Xbox button and between the other inputs with its glowing red eyes. It\u2019s very ominous and epic at the same time!<\/p>\n But this is just one design detail The Witcher 3 <\/em>players can appreciate. The controllers also feature Glagolitic script, the oldest known Slavic alphabet and the same one found in the game itself. As for what the script says\u2026 we won\u2019t spoil it here, but let\u2019s just say those symbols are not random. The iconic red claw mark from The Witcher 3<\/em>\u2019s logo can also be found on the controller, paying homage to the grand adventures Geralt had throughout Velen, Novigrad, Skellige, and beyond. We gave the controller triggers two different colors in homage to the witcher\u2019s twin swords too \u2014\u00a0silver for monsters, steel for humans.<\/p>\n These decorative elements are true to the style of The Witcher 3,<\/em> coming across as if once painted or crafted with incredible care but now worn down and weathered. The world of The Witcher 3 <\/em>is not always a pleasant one; it can be difficult and demanding and it will leave its mark. We also worked with Joshua Flowers, Design Team Lead at CD Projekt Red, on establishing this vision.<\/p>\n \u201cWe explored a lot of directions when creating this controller, but from the beginning we knew we wanted to tell a story,\u201d he said. \u201cWe wanted it to feel like something that has been with you on the path, something worn and personal. As we developed concepts, we began crafting the story of this<\/em> controller \u2014 and how it might exist in The Witcher 3<\/em>\u2018s world. This narrative is what we fell in love with. It had to feel like it belonged in The Witcher 3<\/em> universe \u2014 like it had lived through battles and carried stories of its own.\u201d<\/p>\n \n
