微软推出 Xbox Nano Controller 轻量手柄，预购价 49.99 美元

Today, Microsoft announced the XBOX Nano Controller, a new smaller gamepad (just over 5 inches in length and 3.5 ounces in weight) designed primarily for use on the go.

It features a rechargeable battery paired with a programmable Action Button designed for customization, enabling quick access to screenshots, gameplay recording, and the player's most-used shortcuts. Seamless connectivity is guaranteed through XBOX Wireless and Bluetooth technology, allowing effortless pairing with multiple compatible devices, which include:

XBOX consoles
Windows PC
iOS & Android
Select Smart TVs

Microsoft is partnering with Samsung to offer a limited-time promotion featuring an exclusive XBOX Nano Controller and two months of complimentary Game Pass Ultimate (redeemable by new Game Pass subscribers) throughout the United States during the holiday period. Customers who purchase eligible Samsung TVs will receive these benefits. The XBOX app, integrated into Samsung's Gaming Hub, enables players across participating regions to stream hundreds of XBOX Game Pass games directly to their television by simply pairing their controller.

Additionally, Microsoft is working on a deal with Meta to offer a similar holiday promotion in the United States that bundles an XBOX Nano Controller with a two-month Game Pass Ultimate membership (again, only for new subscribers) when purchasing a Meta Quest device.

The XBOX Nano controller can be pre-ordered now (ahead of the planned November launch) for $49.99 in the following countries:

Argentina
Australia
Austria
Belgium
Brazil
Canada
China
Colombia
Czechia
Denmark
Dominican Republic

Hungary
Ireland
Italy
Japan
Korea
Mexico
Netherlands
New Zealand
Norway
Panama
Peru
Poland
Portugal
Slovakia
Spain
Switzerland
Taiwan

For the record, the regular XBOX Wireless Controller that comes with the Xbox Series S and X consoles is officially priced at $65, though it is now discounted by 25% on the Xbox Store and is therefore temporarily cheaper than the Nano.
