New Tomb Raider Xbox 360 controller

Accompanying the new Square Enix Tomb Raider game will also be a special edition Xbox 360 controller, Microsoft have announced. Looking like it has been through the wars, much like Lara herself the controller is the new standard Xbox 360 design (the one with the redesigned D-Pad) and has decals such as a bandage and scratching.

If you purchase the Tomb Raider controller, you will also receive a key for an exclusive Tomb Raider character download on the Xbox Dashboard. Only announced currently for the USA where it will retail for $60 (around £40), it will be in strict limited quantities.

Hopefully the design will make it over to the UK and Europe when Tomb Raider launches 5th March. It will also be available on PlayStation 3.
