Gamers will be pleased to know that 8Bitdo’s newly announced Ultimate 2 wireless gaming controller has dropped to its lowest-ever price on Amazon. This new model launched last month with a $70 price tag, and now the 8Bitdo Amazon Storefront is offering a significant 10% off on its original list price. This means you can now buy the wireless controller for just $62.99 rather than $70. Plus, according to Camelcamelcamel’s price history, this deal also marks the all-time lowest price for this model. Surprisingly, the deal is available in both black and white colorways.
The 8Bitdo Ultimate 2 Bluetooth controller features a Nintendo-style layout, which is adorned with TMR joysticks, a responsive D-pad, two back paddle buttons, extra bumper buttons, and Hall Effect triggers with mode switching, allowing gamers to switch between Hall Effect and non-linear tactile triggers.
Casual/professional gamers will be pleased to know that the wireless gaming controller is extensively customizable via 8Bitdo Ultimate Software V2. You can customize pretty much everything from button remapping, customizing each stick for higher precision control, and adjusting trigger range to modifying the vibration intensity, RGB lighting, and assigning macros.
Another nice thing is its tri-mode connectivity. You can connect the controller through Bluetooth, 2.4 GHz wireless via dongle, or wired USB mode. Additionally, it has a 1,000 mAh battery and can be charged either via the USB-C port or the included charging dock. The controller is compatible with Nintendo’s new Switch 2, the original Switch, Windows 10/11, and Android 13 or above devices. You can learn more about the 8Bitdo Ultimate 2 wireless controller in the review video attached below.
That said, if you are looking to pick up a new gaming controller with Hall Effect triggers and tri-mode connectivity options, then the 8Bitdo Ultimate 2 wireless gaming controller seems like a practical investment.
