I’ve got a few deals straight from my soccer field for you Xbox and PC gamers. After giving our Xbox console buying guide a nice update yesterday, I couldn’t help noticing a few great deals on both first-party and third-party consoles.
Our top pick and easiest recommendation for most people, the Standard Microsoft Xbox Wireless Controller (which comes with Xbox Series X / S) is Sale for $39.99 ($20 off) in black from Microsoft. It may be a little boring or not look as cool as some of the wild creations from the Xbox Design Lab, but it’s an excellent, versatile tool that sells for the lowest price.
If you prefer a more premium design with a built-in rechargeable battery, Microsoft Xbox Elite Series 2 Core Controller It retails for $110 ($20 off) price Amazon and $110.99 from Microsoft. The black and white Elite Series 2 Core is the same controller as the all-black Elite Series 2 at $179.99, but omits the added accessories like replacement stick covers, cross-type D-pad, rear paddles, and charging case. However, you can buy all of those in the $59.99 combo to have the Core match the Elite Series 2’s one-for-one price. And with today’s discount, doing so actually makes sense because the combined price of $169.99 saves you $10 over an Elite Series 2 purchase.
The Xbox Elite Series 2 Core Wireless Controller is functionally identical to the more expensive Elite Series 2 but does not come with an additional D-pad, back paddles, thumb sticks, or charging case. Those could be Purchased separately for $59.99.
Now for my fellow cheap gamers, the Xbox version of PowerA enhanced wired controller In blue for only $24.99 ($13 off). Amazon And best buy. Don’t be fooled by this low price, as the Enhanced Wired is a solid controller that looks a lot like stock Microsoft, albeit with a pair of assignable back buttons and the requisite wired connection. That cord is, unfortunately, a dated Micro USB rather than USB-C, but these gamepads are excellent if you want something inexpensive but good for PC gaming or additional controllers for some local co-op on your Xbox console of choice.
Finally, for you patients who might consider a wired console with some deep Customization options RIG Nacon Revolution X controller In black on sale for $79.90 ($20 off) direct from NakunWhile the white version sells for $79.99 Amazon. It’s the only console with optional weights in the handles, allowing you to make them lighter or heavier to suit your preference. In addition, the four additional buttons built into the back are easier to use than the buttons.
