Earlier this year in March, a white version of the Series 2 Elite Xbox controller was spotted inside the cabinet of a store. Months later, there’s still no official announcement, but we’ve now got what appears to be an unboxing video of the same controller:
Leak: I think this is our first footage of the Xbox Elite Series 2 White Edition controller. A leaked image of the controller was shown by @IdleSloth84 back in March.

The standard Elite 2 controller was released roughly two years ago, and by the looks of it, this is the same controller we’ve seen, but white. Keep in mind, that Microsoft and Xbox haven’t announced anything just yet.
Jez Corden of Windows Central has also advised that he’d already heard of “some kind of new Xbox Elite Controller on the way, slated for the 2022 holiday season”, so this could well be it — assuming it’s not a fake. There have even been rumors of a potential Elite Series 3 controller coming out next year as well!
