Black Friday Xbox controller deals 2024: early deals are better than ever this year

A genuinely excellent deal for the Xbox Wireless Controller, this current discount places it just $4.50 away from its record-lowest Amazon price. We expect Black Friday discounts to also hover around this mark, so there's never really a bad time to pick up the controller for yourself.

Additional colors:

Robot White: was $59.99 now $44.49 at Amazon
Deep Pink: was $64.99 now $51.13 at Amazon
Astral Purple: was $64.99 now $55.99 at Amazon
Electric Volt: was $64.99 now $52.99 at Amazon

The Nocturnal Vapor variant of the Xbox Wireless Controller is fairly recent and thus hasn't received many big discounts. As a result, we highly recommend jumping on this deal for the stylish colorway while stocks last.

This is the first major discount we've seen for the gorgeous Ghost Cipher Xbox Wireless Controller variant. It's likely that stock won't last too long on this special edition gamepad, so snap one up before they're gone!

Walmart currently has the best rate on the Elite Series 2 pre-Black Friday. While not the best discount we've ever seen for the premium Xbox pad, it's still a fine saving if you're looking for a controller with tons of extra features.

If you'd prefer that Elite Series 2 quality without all the bells and whistles attached, you can do so with this deal at a reduced price point.

Amazon smashes Walmart's previous best with this astounding $90 discount. While it has been succeeded by the excellent Wolverine V3 Pro, this is still an great option for buyers on smaller budgets and currently it's just a buck shy of its lowest ever price.

At just a couple of bucks shy of its lowest ever Amazon price, the excellent Turtle Beach Recon is worth purchasing here, especially if you're a frequent online gamer. The Recon offers a lot of very convenient on-board voice chat controls, making it a fantastic choice for comms with your buds.

It doesn't look like a super impressive discount, but hear us out. The 8BitDo Ultimate C is one of the best cheap controllers you can buy across all platforms, and it's very rare to see even the slightest discount for this eye-catching Xbox variant. We'd go as far as to say this controller is so good, it can be used as a main instead of a simple multiplayer spare.

The best discount we've seen yet in the UK for the astounding Nocturnal Vapor colorway. Like other 'Vapor' models in the Xbox Wireless Controller family, each has its own unique pattern, effectively meaning no two controllers are the same here.

Is it the flashiest controller on the market? Absolutely not. But if you're in need of a cheap, good quality spare for local multiplayer sessions, then PowerA is an awesome budget-friendly brand that we highly recommend.

A modest but very welcome discount on the Victrix Pro BFG at Argos. We actually rate this controller higher than the Elite Series 2, owing to its impressive customizability, slick look and excellent overall build quality. Plus, with a floating d-pad and a dedicated 'fight pad' module, it's a great choice for fighting game players. Definitely check this one out.
