Update: BLUE is back in stock at the low price of $39! This one is selling out fast every time it comes back, so grab one while you can. Black and White have been consistently available.
The updated Xbox wireless controller designed for the newest generation Xbox Series X and Series S consoles has already dropped in price despite how new it is. You can find it going for $39 at Walmart. These are normally $60 and this is the first sale since they released earlier this month. That deal price includes the black and white versions. Blue was also on sale but that version ran out of stock quickly. Might check back if you really want that one, but you can find it for just $5 more at Best Buy. You can get a similar deal price for the black and white controllers at Best Buy and Microsoft.
This sale also includes the Xbox One wireless controller. While it's the same price without the improvements, there is a much wider variety of colors and patterns available for $39 from this design.
The new controller improves on the classic design in several iumportant ways. The three biggest improvements are the hybrid D-Pad, the textured grip, and the share button right in the middle. The controller also uses USB-C for charging instead of MicroUSB, which is a fantastic improvement as well. It's also slightly smaller than the Xbox One controller, which means a wider range of gamers can use it.
The new D-Pad uses a cross-segmented style format. It's designed to help improve directional movement, menu selection, and more. The textured grips give you a more tactile feel and help immerse you in the game you're playing while also ensuring the controller doesn't accidentally go flying across the room because your palms got a little sweaty. The shoulder buttons really benefit a lot from the textured materials as well.
Similar to Microsoft's Elite controller, the new controller adds a share button. This way you don't have to go into the dashboard or open up menus to create clips and share them on social media. You can do it immediately by pushing this button.
The nice thing about this controller staying pretty similar to the previous generation is that many of the same accessories still work, so you can always improve your experience that way as well.
