Amazon is now offering the 8Bitdo Ultimate Wired Controller for Xbox Series X|S for $34.99 shipped in black. Regularly $45, this is 22% off the going rate, matching our previous mention, and the best price we can find. Today’s deal is one of only a few times we have seen the latest-model Xbox gamepad from the brand in this price range in 2023 and comes within cents of the one-time low. This one launched at this time last year as the brand’s first truly Xbox-inspired gamepad design. Alongside the expected collection of shoulder triggers, face buttons, and a D-pad, you’ll also notice that iconic asymmetric Xbox thumbstick alignment present and accounted for. The usual 8Bitdo custom button mapping and trigger sensitivity adjustments are available via its Ultimate software alongside compatibility with Microsoft’s current-generation consoles, Xbox One, Windows 10/11, iOS, and Android. Additional details can be found right here and then head below for more.
While you’re not going to get the same level of customization, the PowerA Wired Controller for Xbox Series X|S is a more affordable solution at $27 shipped. If you’re just looking for casual extra gamepad for couch co-op and the like, it will still deliver an otherwise similar setup with the asymmetric-style Xbox thumbsticks that will at least feel familiar to Microsoft gamers.
