Fortnite Midas Xbox controller

PowerA partnered up with EpicGames to announce a new Fornite-branded Xbox controller, among other several Fortnite-inspired accessories, and it looks incredible.

If you’re looking to add this gorgeous controller to your collection, you should know that it features mappable Advanced Gaming Buttons, 3-Way Trigger Locks, a 10ft USB-C cable, and it’s officially licensed by Xbox too. But it has so many other features, all of which you can find here.

The best news? It only costs $40, and it comes with a 2-year warranty, so if anything happens to it, you have it covered.

PowerA decided to put Fortnite’s Midas on the Xbox controller, while another character from the universe, Peely appears on Nintendo accessories. So if you’re a Fortnite fan, now you have new items to collect.

If you’re not, but you already use Xbox: the Fortnite Midas Xbox controller is a must. It is compatible with Windows, Xbox One, and Xbox Series S, and X.

Speaking about collecting Xbox controllers, we also have some suggestions here, here, and here, but again, the new Fortnite Midas Xbox controller kind of surpasses them all.

It looks great: the black and gold palette makes it look as if it’s straight out of a serious dark fantasy game (you know which one, and it ends with a ring), rather than the battle royale Fortnite. So, even if you’re not a fan of the game (and we get it), this controller makes up for it.

You can find more details about its capabilities, price, and availability (and you should probably hurry, if you want to get it) here.
