Attention all tea-loving gamers! Yorkshire Tea has just stirred up the gaming world by launching a unique line of PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X and S controllers designed in collaboration with POPeART. However, these limited edition controllers might have a price tag that's a bit too hot to handle, retailing at £149.99 each—which is more than double the price of standard controllers.
The designs incorporate the iconic look of Yorkshire Tea's branding, featuring imagery of the Yorkshire Dales and the brand's logo prominently displayed. For PlayStation, the Touch Pad showcases the logo, while the Xbox design splits the Dales green and the logo's red across the controller's surface.
These bespoke gamepads won't be on virtual shelves indefinitely, with no set number of units or sale duration provided. Microsoft has previously dabbled in unusual controller designs, including fluffy Sonic the Hedgehog-inspired, jade, edible, and even environmentally friendly controllers made from recycled materials. Will these tea-themed controllers resonate with gamers looking for a comforting touch of home? Only time will tell if this novelty will catch on in the gaming community.
This move by Yorkshire Tea taps into the trend of custom gaming hardware, giving players the chance to express their personalities through their gaming setup. Whether you're battling epic bosses or engaging in multiplayer mayhem, these controllers could add a bit of British flair to your gaming experience.
