Best Xbox Elite Controller Alternative


Xbox Elite Controller Alternative

Selecting an Xbox Elite Controller alternative is hard, whether you are replacing your series 1 controller or series 2.

You can go with Razer Wolverine Tournament Edition, PowerA FUSION Pro 2, Scuf Prestige, and Razer Wolverine Ultimate, it depends on your play style to select controller as in the middle of an intense battle you totally forget the key combos which is the key component to win that fight.

So, let’s deep dive to get you a comfortable and competitive controller. Amazon links are provided at the down of the post for every controller mentioned in this post.

Razer Wolverine TE/Ultimate series

Razer Wolverine Tournament Edition is the one you should choose if you are going for competitive or aggressive gaming where you want precise control without any lag input or sweating.

It provides different modes for your battle style based on the level of heat of the battle you are in. Like Hair Trigger Mode.

When activated, the mechanical stop-switches greatly reduce travel distance to the two main triggers, So you all only need to do is press slightly to instantly launch full rapid fire.

Remap multi-function buttons and triggers, and create more than 500 customized profiles to suit different game genres and playstyles. It comes with Razer Chroma lighting effects, which you can customize also or simply turn off as I personally don’t like it.

With better grip and haptic rumble motors, it provides a better gaming experience.

PowerA Fusion Pro 2

Aside from Four-directional D-pad and Cheap-feeling menu button, this is the best-wired controller you can get.

The PowerA Fusion Pro 2 works flawlessly with Xbox Series X/S consoles and with PC also. To improve the latency it uses a USB cable for connection.

Simple in look-wise but packs an impressive amount of features despite a reasonable price point. With swappable parts, you can use a short or tall analog stick, select a convex or concave stick cap, or even change up the color and style of the faceplate.

It comes with 4 fully customizable paddles at the back so that you can remap to any button on the fly or even in between the game.

Turtle Beach Recon Controller

Well, I don’t what to say about this controller, it’s literally the awesome controller in under 50 dollars.

Providing features from out of the box you can use it, I mean without any 3rd party software you can control all the functionality provided by this controller.

The Audio Enhancement feature, where you can toggle between different profiles with any headset connected with its 3.5mm Audio Jack and has separate volume control buttons with the light indicator to control the game audio and chat audio on the fly.

Now you guys are wondering why this site or blog doesn’t have Scuf and BattleBeaver controllers so because they are the modded version of Xbox Elite Controller Series 1 or the Series 2. So ya if you like the Xbox Elite Controller but want to get more personalized then you can buy these from their site.

But here is a small description of them.

Scuf ( Prestige/Instinct )/( Pro/Base )

*Please don’t buy it*

Now Scuf Instinct comes and I can’t find the Scuf Prestige model controller now, but aside from it if you can get a hands-on Scuf Prestige Controller I’ll doubt you go for it because of the reviews.

Many users have reviewed it as a total waste product so better don’t go for it.

And for its new Model Scuf Instinct Pro, the legacy has continued with just a modded version of the Xbox Elite controller Series 2 with extra back buttons and Faceplate.

Nacon Revolution X Pro Controller

Depending on the budget you can have it as the team members of Ncon have grown and they are continuously improving their controllers.

The design is simple and also you increase or decrease the weight of the controller. Looks-wise its simple but its something and because of that, it comes under this list at the end.

If you can handle the low-quality material-based controller then go for it. You can buy it from their site NaconOpens in a new tab. directly.

Other Controllers

Now besides these controllers, you can get a controller which is only available to your near local store because of less popularity so select those controllers wisely.

Currently, I’m using the Razer Wolverine Tournament Edition controller as a daily driver, and its totally worth it. If you have any doubts feel free to ping us on our social media.
