Microsoft’s Elite Series 2 Wireless Controller is discounted to $140 (was $200) at Amazon and Walmart. The $60 price cut is the best we’ve seen in 2025. If Amazon and Walmart sell out–and we wouldn’t be surprised if that happened–the Elite Series 2 is available for $145 at Target and $150 at Best Buy.
The Elite Series 2 has numerous customizable features and swappable magnetic components not found on the standard Xbox Wireless Controller. Here’s a quick look at the controller’s key extra features and accessories:
- Four removable back paddles
- Metal analog sticks with adjustable tension
- Six swappable stick caps
- standard (x2), classic (x2), wide dome, tall
- Two D-pads: Circular 8-way & standard 4-way
- Built-in trigger locks with three stopping points
- Three custom control profiles
- Charging dock
- Braided USB-C cable
- Hardshell case with accessory slots
