Microsoft has been known to do ludicrous Xbox controllers like their grease-proof controller. Now, they’ve outdone themselves with the world’s first pizza-scented Xbox controller.
The new pizza-scented Xbox controllers are being prepped up to celebrate Paramount Pictures’ upcoming Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem animated film, and will be given away in very limited quantities.
Now before you go wondering how they infused the delicious scent of dough, tomato sauce, and fresh mozzarella cheese into an Xbox controller – the smell actually comes from a built-in scent diffuser shaped like a slice of “New York ‘za.” To be clear I’ve never heard anyone from the tri-state area ever referring to pizza as “za”, but I digress.
To enter the contest – you have to just follow Xbox Game Pass on Twitter — or as our spaceman son is now calling it “X” — and retweet their tweet for the entire promotion, here.
Here’s a rundown on the new controllers, collaboration, and more:

Designed to deliver the smell of the Turtles’ beloved meal to your game time, these exclusive Xbox Wireless Controllers come with a built-in scent diffuser shaped like a slice of delicious New York ‘za. The controller comes in four variations, each representing the signature colors, weapons, and personality of a Turtle brother: Leonardo, Raphael, Donatello, and Michelangelo.
Fans can enter to win the Wireless Controllers by following Xbox Game Pass on Twitter and retweeting the official Xbox Game Pass sweepstakes tweet. The giveaway will run from July 24 through August 13, 2023. For official rules and eligibility details, please visit here. For fans in NYC, you can join the celebration and check out in-person the pizza-scented controllers, load up on pizza and play on in the Xbox Gaming Lounge at the Microsoft Experience Center on Fifth Avenue from 4-7 pm ET on August 2, 2023.
Play With Your Favorite Turtles
These controllers are great for games like Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge, now available with Xbox Game Pass. In this timeless arcade game, you’ll rock back to the ’80s and choose your fighter, use radical combos to defeat your opponents, and experience intense combat loaded with outrageous ninja abilities. Stay sharp as you face off against Shredder and his faithful Foot Clan alone or play with up to six players simultaneously.
The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles have also found their way into the Minecraftuniverse in a gnarly new DLC for Minecraft: Bedrock Edition, available for download in the Minecraft Marketplace on August 3, 2023. Show off your skills as you take down baddies like Leatherhead and Krang, explore iconic locations like the Turtle Lair, and save New York City from Shredder. Play as any of the four Turtles, choose from 20 TMNT skins, and be sure to head to the Dressing Room for a free Turtle T-Shirt (redeemable by September 1, 2023). Cowabunga!
Teenage Mutant Ninjas Turtles Mutant Mayhem is set to release August 4, 2023.
