Xbox has announced two Gears of War: E-Day Xbox controllers that will be available starting September 30. The Limited Edition controller will be available at participating retailers worldwide, while the other can be customized with Xbox Design Lab.

8BitDo will also be releasing a Gears of War: E-Day-themed charging dock that is officially licensed by Xbox. It includes an 8BitDo rechargeable battery pack and is compatible with Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One controllers.

The Gears of War: E-Day Limited Edition controller is priced at $89.99 and is available to pre-order at Xbox.com or at local retailers.

Gears of War: E-Day will launch for the Xbox Series X|S, PC via Steam and Microsoft Store, and Xbox Game Pass on October 6.

To celebrate the launch of Gears of War: E-Day, we’re giving fans two new ways to immerse themselves in one of gaming’s most iconic universes. Starting today, fans can pre-order the Gears of War: E-Day Limited Edition XBOX Wireless Controller at participating retailers worldwide. Beginning September 30, players can also design their own Gears of War: E-Day controller with XBOX Design Lab. Together, these offerings pay tribute to Emergence Day with hardware inspired by the symbols, scars, and battles that defined humanity’s war against the Locust Horde.

Return to the beginning of one of gaming’s most iconic sagas with Gears of War: E-Day, the story of Emergence Day and humanity’s first fight against the Locust Horde. Complete your loadout with the new Gears-inspired XBOX controllers, created for fans who want to carry a piece of Sera into every fight.

Inspired by the horror and brutality unleashed on Emergence Day, the Gears of War: E-Day Limited Edition XBOX Wireless Controller captures the raw power of the Locust invasion with a battle-worn design built for fans.

Drawing from the E-holes that scar the world of Gears of War: E-Day, the controller features 3D molded, laser-etched details of cracked asphalt with red, glowing cracks created by the power of an erupting E-hole, exposing the iconic Crimson Omen beneath the surface. Blacked-out ABXY buttons are punctuated by a transparent red X button, while matching red triggers and a transparent D-pad reflect the destruction left in the wake of Emergence Day. A dark silver metallic COG tag on the battery door signifies Never Fight Alone. Squad up. Textured grips round out a design built for fans ready to carry a piece of Sera into every battle.

Built for longtime Gears fans and new recruits alike, this controller honors the legacy of Gears of War. You can preorder the Gears of War: E-Day Limited Edition XBOX Wireless Controller for $89.99 by visiting XBOX.com or your local retailer, including Microsoft Store, for more information.

Beginning September 30, fans can create their own Gears of War: E-Day Limited Edition XBOX Wireless Controller with XBOX Design Lab, featuring exclusive artwork from renowned heavy metal illustrator Luke Preece.

The centerpiece of the design is a custom top case featuring a skull perched atop crossed Lancers, surrounded by more skulls and battle-worn details inspired by the brutal conflict between the COG and the Locust Horde. Fans can make it their own with upgrades such as metallic triggers and D-pads, rubberized side and back grips, and a personalized engraving, creating a controller that reflects their connection to the world, characters, and legacy of Gears of War.

Combining iconic Gears-inspired artwork with deep customization options, XBOX Design Lab empowers fans to create a controller uniquely their own while gearing up to crush grubs.

Both controllers will be on public display for the first time at the XBOX booth at gamescom 2026. Fans at the show will also get to go hands-on with Gears of War: E-Day, where the campaign makes its playable debut.
