Update: PowerA will make a similar Killer Instinct kit.
A few days ago we told you that PowerA unveiled their Halo 5 Component Kit with new paddles and attachments. Well, we have even better news. They’re now available for pre-order at GameStop. The kit seems to be exclusive to the retail chain and ships on April 11. We messaged PowerA a few days ago and they said that the kit would ship in May for $39.99. However, the GameStop exclusive kit seems to cost $49.99 and ships a month early.
The Halo 5 Component Kit is designed with impeccable style for the Xbox Elite Wireless Controller, to bring subtle praise to your favorite game. PowerA worked alongside Microsoft 343 Studio’s Halo team to design the shape and size of these components to cater to Halo gameplay. The low-friction, textured analog rings are built to withstand wear and tear, offering the performance expected for the Xbox Elite Wireless Controller. Each ten-piece kit includes two Standard Analog Sticks, two Mid-Tall Analog Sticks, two Domed Mid-Tall Analog sticks, two Upper Paddles, two Lower Paddles, and two Directional Pads.
