"It has been awhile since Xbox released a refresh to the Elite controller. The second generation of the hardware debuted back in 2019, and it became customizable in the Design Lab in 2022. And since at least one national regulator is currently looking at the device, it seems likely that the product is close to hitting store shelves. Xbox's big summer showcase is just a few weeks away, but after today's leak fest, Microsoft might be inclined to make the official announcement sooner than later."
Anatel in Brazil appears to have accidentally leaked images of an Xbox Elite Controller 3, which were circulated by a local tech site and then picked up elsewhere. The leaked specifications indicate two scroll wheels on the bottom that can be controlled by thumbs. A new pairing button on the front is described as switching the controller between local and cloud modes. The D-pad is redesigned, and the controller is said to use a removable, rechargeable battery. Earlier leaks also showed a smaller Xbox peripheral presumed to be an Xbox Cloud Gaming controller. The Elite Controller line last received a major refresh with the second generation in 2019, with customization added in 2022, and the current regulator activity suggests the Elite Controller 3 may be near release.
