Xbox Wireless Controllers have seen significant discounts thanks to Amazon’s Big Spring Sale, with two specific models being offered for cheaper than usual. Controllers can get pretty expensive, so this could be the perfect opportunity for anyone in the market for a new color scheme, or just another option for a second player. Even if you don’t own an Xbox system, the versatility of the company’s wireless models makes them an appealing option for those that game on PC and mobile devices.
The textured back of the Xbox controller makes it very comfortable to use, especially during extended gaming sessions. There have been rumors for years suggesting that Xbox might change its controllers to bring them closer to those on PS5, but they have remained the same since the current console generation began more than five years ago.
Xbox Wireless Controllers on Sale
As part of Amazon’s Big Spring Sale, the Xbox Electric Volt Wireless Controller is currently 21% off its normal price. That brings the brightly colored option down to $54.99, as opposed to its normal $69.99. Xbox’s Electric Volt controller debuted in 2021, and features a yellow resin design. Gamers looking for something a little more subdued will be happy to know that the Carbon Black model bundled with a USB-C cable has dropped even further, with a 31% discount. For a limited time, that brings the bundle down to just $44.99. That $10 difference is definitely notable, but it might not appeal to Xbox Series X owners, since it’s the same exact controller that comes bundled with the system.
BUY YOURS RIGHT NOW!
Amazon’s Big Spring Sale is live right now, and will run through March 31. That means Xbox fans still have a few days to take advantage of these deals, but it’s possible that stock could run out. Basically, anyone interested in grabbing either of these controllers might want to do so sooner, rather than later. At this time, it’s unclear if these controllers will be compatible with Xbox’s new system codenamed Project Helix, but it seems like a safe bet given the company’s usual efforts at maintaining backwards compatibility.

Xbox has been having a difficult time this console generation. The company has struggled to find an identity, and Xbox has seen major leadership changes over the last few weeks. It remains to be seen whether the new leadership can help make Xbox competitive again, but the company makes good products that are enjoyable to use. Xbox Wireless Controllers are no exception, and fans that want a new option ahead of some of this year’s big releases might want to grab one while they’re available for less.
