SteelSeries released the Aeon Pro wireless controller in September 2026. The controller is available in black or white and costs between $249.99 and $259.99. It works with Xbox, PC, and mobile devices via 2.4GHz wireless, Bluetooth, or USB-C.

The hardware includes Hall Effect analog sticks and Hall Effect triggers with adjustable stops. It uses mechanical face buttons and features four programmable rear paddles. An integrated OLED display allows for adjusting settings, connectivity, and profiles directly on the controller. To manage power, the package comes with a charging dock and two rechargeable batteries that you can remove, so you can use one battery while the other charges.

The Aeon Pro uses a standard Xbox layout, but the View and Menu buttons are repositioned to make room for the OLED screen. The rear paddles may require some adjustment before they feel natural. During testing, the Xbox Guide button occasionally failed to open the console Quick Menu, though this may have been a console issue rather than a hardware defect.
