However, the main issue with the Proteus Controller is its price which is expected to be around the $299 mark. Coming in at more than a discounted Xbox Series X/S console, this is an extortionate price and many Xbox gamers are not happy.

Speaking over on r/XboxSeriesX, one playersaid: “A bit expensive but I’m glad they’re still working on accessibility. The more gamers, the better.”

Another agreed, saying: “It’s cool that Xbox makes this stuff but it’s also SO expensive. Gamers with disabilities have to shell out big bucks just to be able to play.”

Although it is admirable to see Xbox working on more and more accessibility options for its players, it is a shame to see the resulting products come in at a price unachievable for many.
