Fortnite teamed up with Razer earlier this year to launch a collection premium PC accessories, and now we're getting another interesting collaboration--this time with PowerA. The PowerA Fortnite Special-Edition Xbox/PC Wireless Controller is now up for preorder ahead of its October 1 release, and it's shaping up to be a great option for competitive players. Aside from its premium build quality, it comes bundled with a bonus in-game Fortnite item. It's not the first PowerA x Fortnite collab--several Nintendo Switch accessories, including this Peely-themed Switch wireless controller, are available now--but it is the most premium.
PowerA Fortnite Special-Edition Wireless Controller for Xbox and PC
$100
The officially licensed Xbox controller is one of the priciest in PowerA's catalog at $100, but it also has more features than we typically see in PowerA gamepads. Here are the key features:
- Drift-resistant Hall Effect sticks
- Wear-resistant Hall Effect triggers
- Four remappable back buttons
- Trigger locks with three stopping points
- Three custom profiles that can be cycled through on the fly
- USB 2.4GHz wireless for Xbox and PC
- Profile and Share buttons
- Up to 30 hours of battery life
- 10-foot USB-C charging cable (also for wired play)
- Dial to adjust volume on wired headset
- Dual rumble motors
- Tooth Pickaxe in-game item
Combined with its chaotic artwork--which features graffiti of various Fortnite characters and logos--this is a slick controller for Fortnite fans.
Like all things related to Fortnite, this upcoming controller could be quite popular, especially since it's the most feature-packed Fortnite-themed controller thus far. Be sure to reserve a unit if you're interested in adding it to your console or PC gaming setup. Note that payment won't happen until the item ships--just like all Amazon preorders.
