Microsoft Director of Programming for Xbox Live Larry Hyrb has announced that users can now enjoy the 12-person chat feature of Xbox One.

There's a good reason for Xbox One players to check out the Microsoft Store over the weekend. Currently, there are some special deals for Xbox players exclusively for the Labor Day weekend.

The main deal for Labor Day is the inclusion of "Assassin's Creed Unity" with every purchase of a couple of Xbox One bundles, DualShockers reported.

There are a total of five bundles wherein EA's stealth game is free as an exclusive offer. These bundles include the Xbox One "Madden NFL 16" bundle which also includes a free year's worth of EA Access with the 1TB Xbox One console ($399), the Xbox One and Kinect combo bundle ($499.99) and the refurbished Xbox One with Kinect ($349)

"Halo" fans can also choose between the Xbox One "Halo: The Master Chief Collection" bundles, which come with either the newer 1TB Xbox One console ($399) or the 500GB version with a two-week Xbox Live Gold trial ($349). Both "Halo" bundles also include a free copy of "Assassin's Creed Unity." The weekend sale will last until Sept. 7.

While on the topic of good deals for the Xbox One, Xbox fans may also want to check out the newest offer for Microsoft's next-gen console accessories. From gaming accessory creator PowerA comes a new Xbox One controller dubbed as the Fusion Pro controller.

What's special about this Xbox One controller is that it features buttons on the back of the device, right where the fingers are usually positioned. The Fusion Pro is also customizable, so players can assign the command that they want for the four rear buttons, GameSpot reported.

The PowerA Xbox One controller also sports a few useful features, such as an ergonomic design, custom lighting of up to 225 color combinations, trigger locks and the 3.5mm audio jack similar to the new official Xbox One controller. Best of all, players who are on the budget may want to grab this new controller as it is half the price of current options, such as the Xbox One Elite controller and the Razer controller.

PowerA's Fusion Pro Xbox One controller will be sold at $80. It will come with a 9.8-foot USB cable and be available on Oct. 26.
