The main draw of this controller is its design, as you’re getting a peripheral with a translucent plastic shell and several design elements pulled directly from the world of Black Myth: Wukong. You’ve got flames and sigils, all tastefully combined to create an eye-catching design to wrap your hands around, and internally, the controller has some high-performance parts as well.
Like other standard Ultimate 2C controllers, you’re getting Hall Effect joysticks, a 1000Hz polling rate when connected via 2.4G or wired connections for fast response times, a pair of extra remappable bumpers, and a turbo function for when you need to unleash a flurry of attacks.
8BitDo Ultimate 2C vs. flagship Ultimate Controllers
The 2C is the budget version in 8BitDo’s flagship Ultimate Controller series. The manufacturer recently released the Ultimate 2 and Ultimate 2 Bluetooth Controllers, which include the pair of remappable shoulder buttons found on the Ultimate 2C as well as the back buttons from the original Ultimate. These new controllers also offer an upgrade from Hall Effect to TMR electromagnetic sticks, include adjustable trigger locks for the first time, and feature various other quality-of-life improvements.
You can save on the Ultimate 2 for PC and Android as well as the Ultimate 2 Bluetooth for Switch and PC at Amazon. Check out our dedicated story on the Ultimate 2 for more details.

“It’s not uncommon to go from one boss fight into another and then another, and it’s in these elaborate battles where Black Myth: Wukong shines,” Richard Wakeling wrote in GameSpot’s Black Myth: Wukong review. The moments in between, however, aren’t quite as strong, sometimes devolving into aimless tedium. But its satisfying combat and unique variety of boss fights mostly manages to overcome these flaws.”
