Xbox’s new Nano controller signals a shift beyond the traditional console as Microsoft targets gaming across devices
The new version of the Xbox controller by Microsoft is shrinking in size, yet the idea behind the product goes far beyond its size specifications. The Xbox Nano Controller comes into play as Microsoft is extending its gaming platform and allowing users to play their favourite games across consoles, PC, mobile and smart TVs that support Microsoft products, providing gamers with more options to enjoy gaming without having to stick to a particular display. Available for pre-order, the Xbox Nano Controller will be on sale from November 4, 2026, and costs $49.99 in the United States.
