8BitDo Launches Ultimate 2 Wireless Controller

• 8BitDo has launched its new Ultimate 2 Wireless Controller.
• Featuring 8Speed technology, it aims to deliver near-zero input lag over Bluetooth.
• The updated version also includes several other refinements for a well-rounded experience.

It's an exciting day for mobile controllers. With announcements like the X5 Lite and the CRKD x Goat Simulator collaboration, gamers seeking the ultimate accessory are in for a treat. Enter 8BitDo, entering the arena with its latest offering: the Ultimate 2 Wireless Controller.

While loaded with features, the standout aspect of the Ultimate 2 is its 8Speed technology. Designed to reduce even the smallest amount of input delay, it clearly targets serious and competitive players.

So, what else does the Ultimate 2 bring to the table? It includes TMR (Tunnelling Magnetoresistance) Joysticks, which promise improved sensitivity, precision, and longevity—all while drawing less power. These specs sound impressive and definitely on the cutting edge.

As expected from a modern wireless controller, it also includes customizable RGB lighting, allowing you to choose your favorite lighting pattern. The triggers use Hall-Effect technology, and a Mode Switch lets you fine-tune their response to your liking.

Beyond the technical terms, the Ultimate 2 is essentially a polished and improved version of its predecessor. While the added features are appealing, the controller’s primary focus appears to be delivering ultra-responsive gameplay—so real-world performance will be key.
