Microsoft has provided some additional details on its new Xbox Wireless Controller, on track to ship alongside the Xbox Series X later in 2020. The redesigned gamepad focuses on refining ergonomics, including a further streamlined design, coupled with new functionality over the existing Xbox One model.

As Microsoft previously announced, Xbox Series X's new controller will feature a reworked D-pad, with a new "facetted dish" design to better accommodate all types of titles. Inspired the Xbox Elite controller lineup, it provides more flexibility for directional input, over the firm four-way cross used by Xbox One.

The arrival of a Share button also complements the system's integrated DVR capabilities, allowing users to share screenshots and clips with a single button press. While far from new, with similar shortcuts across PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch, it ensures the accessory aligns with recent trends.

And although designed for Xbox Series X, the new controller will also function with Xbox One, PC, mobiles, and more.
