Microsoft has put out the pre-order price for Xbox One’s controllers and peripherals. They are up on the official Microsoft store, revealing the price gamers will be paying to get in on some 2-player action.

The Microsoft store has the Xbox One controller for $59.99 (R588.60*), while the “Play and Charge” bundle, which features a rechargeable battery and cable, is priced at $74.99 (R735.95*).

In addition to the controller, the Xbox One Chat Headset is available to purchase for $24.99.

The prices have not gone up on the UK Microsoft store, but the US pricing should be indicative of what other regions should pay.

The Xbox One will be priced at $499, while its competitor, the PS4, will be priced at $399.
