These Space Jam Limited Edition Xbox Series X|S Controllers Are a Slam Dunk

Xbox One Space Jam Controller Impressions

Earlier this month, Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscribers were treated to a little surprise when Space Jam: A New Legacy โ€“ The Game arrived as an exclusive for members. If you havenโ€™t played the game yet, it doesnโ€™t sound like you are missing too much.

As it stands, it is currently scoring 55/100 with only 4 reviews on Metacritic. Granted, it is a kidโ€™s game and a movie-based one at that; so your expectations should not be too high anyhow. I wonโ€™t blame you if you took a pass. But if you are overlooking those sweet limited edition Xbox Series X|S controllers inspired by the new Space Jam movie, you might be making a mistake.

Simply put, they are amazing and beautiful. Xbox was kind enough to send us all three controllers and they are unquestionably eye-popping.

There is a โ€œTune Squadโ€ controller featuring those classic Space Jam blue and orange colors, a โ€œGoon Squadโ€ controller with a black and purple design, and a โ€œSerververseโ€ controller sporting a Tron-like look. You can pick up all three of those controllers individually from the Microsoft store or Amazon. Although, at the time of writing, it doesnโ€™t seem like much is available. Hopefully, more will become available when the movie drops or when Space Jam: A New Legacy โ€“ The Game arrives on Game Pass.

The โ€œTune Squadโ€ controller was my favorite out of the bunch, but the other two controllers are equally slick. They are fully licensed Xbox Series X|S Controllers so you get the sculpted surfaces, enhanced sharing options, textured grips, hybrid D-pad, and more. With the exception of the Xbox Elite controller, these Space Jam controllers are about the best controllers youโ€™ll ever use on your Series X|S.

They make great collector items too if you are someone like me, who has amassed far too many Xbox controllers over the years. I currently have them displayed on a shelf alongside other gaming figures and collector items.

I should say there is a 4th controller that is perhaps even more limited, but we did not get a chance to check that one out. It is contained in a Xbox x Nike collaboration kit, with a pair of Nike LeBron 18 Lows. The shoes are inspired by the Road Runner and Wile E. Coyote, and an accompanying controller is a mash-up of the two in an eternal rivalry.

Space Jam: A New Legacy will be out in theaters on July 16th.
