Yorkshire Tea is selling custom PS5 and Xbox Series X/S controllers.

The controllers, which have been designed by POPeArt, cost £150 each and come in a special box with a certificate of authentication.

The design on the controllers emulates a box of Yorkshire Tea.

“Picture the scene,” a description for the controller reads. “You’re facing down a boss with three heads and a hammer as big as a truck, armed with nothing but a rusty sword you looted from a guard.

“Gulping, you look down at the controller in your hands, wondering if victory is even possible. And you see it – the reassuring branding of your favourite tea. ‘Yes,’ you say to yourself. ‘I can do this’.

“You begin the fight and are immediately one-shotted. You’re clearly way too low level for this area. On behalf of Yorkshire Tea, we would like to apologise for this and any other in-game mishaps caused by the powerful feeling of self-belief our controller will fill you with.”

Each controller features a custom button set and a “soft-touch finish”.

A standard DualSense controller has a retail price of £59.99, but can often be found significantly cheaper. A standard Xbox controller has a retail price of £54.99, and can also be found cheaper.

It’s unclear how many of the controllers have been produced, however Yorkshire Tea claims the items are limited edition.

Do it for Yorkshire I'm nobody

 

[TheRedRiders]

I'm not a Yorkshire Tea fan myself - I think M&S Gold is way better. However I would consider buying one of these for the sake of novelty. It'll look really cool next to my plate of bangers and mash.

COME ON ENGLAND!!!!!!!!!

 

[Dick Jones]

They dont need a certificate, nobody has ever made a british product knock-off.

 

[Kuranghi]

I'm in Scotland and when you say you don't drink tea everyone in the area looks at you with derision. Maybe this controller can trick them

 

[Papa_Wisdom]

Little known fact that all us Yorkshire folk got a letter sent from our local councils today saying, by law we have to buy at least one of these.

Somehow this is weirder than the pizza controllers.

 

[Putonahappyface]

 

[Pelta88]

Hilarious.

 

[Putonahappyface]

It looks so ugly. Is this a joke? Or is this real?

It's real and even gives you that unique sexy tea teeth staining.

 

[Elysium44]

Are there people who would really pay £150 (190 USD) for this? Basically £100 for a sticker?

 

[Putonahappyface]

Pete says hold my beer.

 

[BbMajor7th]

Yorkshire Tea - absolute mad lads. Certainly time for a cheeky mash.

 

[Spukc]

I prefer tongham TEA

 

[Dr.Morris79]

[phaedrus]

 

[Fake]

Thats shit.

 

[German Hops]

It's good for a collector's item.
That certificate of authentication seals the deal for me.

But they should have at least included a coupon.

Damn jaundice teeth! That is so rank!

To be fair I think that gentleman brushes his teeth with a cigarette.

 

[DeepEnigma]

[BouncyFrag]

Spiffing Brit will be all over this.

 

[STARSBarry]

As a Yorkshire Gold drinker there standard peasant tea design offends my eyes.

The regular red tea is swill, the gold is night and day difference. Considering the price they should have least gone with the premium brand of leaf thats actually drinkable for the aesthetics.

I'm partial to Gold myself, but as I was raised in a Quickbrew household, my standards are much more flexible.

I honestly can not tell the difference between these and normal
