The 8Bitdo Ultimate 2.4G Wireless Controller supports 2.4G, Bluetooth, and wired connectivity and comes complete with its own multifunctional docking station for inter-gameplay power-ups. In terms of features, this one has the whole nine yards. Customizable pro-level back buttons, adaptive triggers, rumble vibration, plus a programmable macro function. Additionally, it has a custom profile button which allows you to create up to three player profiles and switch between them on the fly.
This exclusive collector’s set is licensed by “Genshin Impact” and packs a stylish carry case, interchangeable thumbstick buttons, a Chongyun fridge magnet, plus Chongyun keyring. While you still can’t play “Genshin Impact” on Switch, the controller is compatible with PC, Android, and the Steam Deck, so you can switch between devices to play all your favorite games. Even with all this functionality, it still costs less than the Nintendo Switch Pro Controller.
8Bitdo is well known for being one of the leading peripheral manufacturers, and this set is no exception. It features a micro-textured grip on the handles for user comfort and the controller itself has been manufactured to a high-quality finish. Mirroring the button array and design of the classic Xbox controller, the 8Bitdo Ultimate 2.4G Wireless Controller feels like a premium quality controller. The ability to customize the sensitivity of the thumbsticks and triggers is the icing on the cake here, and it offers exceptional value for its $60 asking price.
