Xbox Elite Series 2 controller slashed to cheapest price ever

Xbox or PC players looking to treat themselves to a new controller need to head to Amazon now. That’s because the retailer has slashed the price of the Xbox Elite Series 2 controller to an all-time low – making this one of the best Prime Day deals for gamers!

The Xbox Elite Series 2 controller has been slashed to the lowest price since it launched. Best news? This deal is available on the new Core Edition, which was released late last year. The  Series 2 controller normally retails for a hefty £114.99, but that’s plunged down to just £104 on Amazon. That’s a generous 10% off the usual price tag.

The Elite Series 2 controller is a much more robust gamepad compared to the standard versions that are being sold. Microsoft’s Elite controller is designed for hardcore gamers and professional esports players, so you know you are getting your money’s worth.  

It comes with a higher build quality, with a rubberised grip, as well as special thumbsticks, where you can adjust the tension, and shorter hair trigger locks. As you can see, the D-pad has also been redesigned. 

You can also customise what all the buttons on the Core version do, as there’s a special app that allows you to change the button mappings to whatever you want. The Core Edition is much more affordable as it doesn’t come with interchangeable parts that lets you switch over to taller or shorter analogue sticks, and different D-pad and back paddles. 

Those options are really only for the super hardcore though and if you really feel you’re missing out then you can always buy them, and a charging dock and carrying case, separately.

This is just one of a handful of brilliant gaming deals available in the Prime Day sale. The other unmissable discounts include…
