Xbox Wireless Controller

The Xbox Wireless Controller is a flagship gaming accessory developed and marketed by Microsoft. Based on the specific d-pad design and the inclusion of a dedicated 'Share' button visible in the image, this is part of the Series X|S generation of controllers. The brand 'Xbox' was originally created as Microsoft's entry into the gaming console market, debuting in 2001 in the United States.

While branding and engineering occur at Microsoft's headquarters in Redmond, Washington, the hardware is manufactured internationally. Most Xbox controllers are produced in China, though Microsoft has diversified its supply chain across several Asian manufacturing hubs over the years. As of 2026, the brand remains under the ultimate ownership of Microsoft Corporation, which has significantly expanded its gaming division through the acquisition of major publishers like Activision Blizzard and ZeniMax Media.
