The feud betweenXboxfans and PlayStation fans has been ongoing, but most prefer to coexist peacefully. Once a creative fan made a customXboxSeries X controller with the face buttons usually seen on a PlayStation controller.
Traditionally,Xbox controllershave the following face buttons: X on the left, Y on the top, B on the right, and A on the bottom. Each button has its own function that tends to vary depending on the game and menu being used. On the other end of the spectrum, PlayStation controllers bear symbols as face buttons instead of letters. They are X, square, circle, and triangle, all having similar functions to those found on the Xbox controllers.

Reddit user mike24jd showed off a picture of his custom Xbox controller to the Xbox Series X subreddit. The Xbox controller was made for a friend of his that had requested to have PlayStation face buttons added to the controller instead of the normal Xbox ones. The body of the controller has the look of textured metal with silver joysticks, bumpers, and triggers. The buttons themselves have an opal-like finish and there is a logo on the bottom giving it the look of a high-qualitythird-party Xbox controller.
The controller looks very nice and sleek in its design. Mike24jd answered a comment on the post going into some detail on how he made it, mentioning that it’s half custom and half ordered parts. Either way, it’s an interesting idea, to want PlayStation face buttons on an Xbox controller. It makes a lot of sense, of course, if the player is more familiar with the PlayStation button setup than the Xbox setup. It’s likely that the person who commissioned the controller might have wanted to use this forPC gaming since Xbox controllers are some of the most popularon the platform.
The design of this controller is stunning and has such a unique look to it even with the monochrome color scheme. It’s not as flashy and colorful as anXbox custom controller themed to Skyrim, but it has its own charms like the PlayStation buttons that have an opalescent shine to them
Xbox controllers are usually sold in many official designs withXbox even rolling out its own special edition controller for Pride Month. This controller is easily one of the unique with its merging of two rivals that can now coexist on one controller peacefully.
