Karlstad, Sweden – April 30, 2025 – Game Outlet Europe®, an independent distributor of video games and gaming accessories and part of Embracer Freemode®, today announced the shipping of the 8BitDo® Ultimate 2 Wireless Controller across Europe.
Redesigned and fully upgraded for true next-level performance, the Ultimate 2 Wireless Controller adds a series of state-of-the-art new features, making the best even better.
Compatible with Windows® PC and Android® devices, the Ultimate 2 Wireless Controller uses the exclusive 8BitDo ‘8Speed’ Wireless Technology, delivering an exceptionally stable 2.4G connection with ultra-low latency under 1ms. Engineered for rock-solid reliability, the 8Speed Technology features strong anti-interference and a 10m range with virtually no lag. When used with Android devices, the controller switches to Bluetooth®, once again providing a strong, solid signal for lag free use.
Advanced wireless technology is of little use if the controller is lacking, but 8BitDo fans have little to fear here, as the new gamepad is stacked with advanced features designed to deliver premium performance, whatever your game. Utilising TMR (Tunneling Magnetoresistance) Joysticks, the latest technology offers higher sensitivity, greater precision, and enhanced durability, all the while consuming less power than other joystick technologies, ideal for wireless controllers. Surrounding the joysticks, the RGB Fire Ring provides interactive, fully adjustable lighting, featuring multiple light modes to choose from.
For the Triggers, the Ultimate 2 Wireless Controller utilises Hall-Effect technology, complete with a discrete Mode Switch allowing gamers to select between linear triggers and non-linear tactile triggers depending on player preference or gaming scenarios. In addition, the Ultimate 2 Wireless Controller comes complete with Remappable Fast Bumpers (R4 and L4 buttons) which are designed for personalized configuration, giving gamers razor sharp reaction times during gameplay. Completing the impressive roster of input buttons, the Ultimate 2 Wireless Controller includes Pro Back Paddle Buttons, Tactile Bumpers and a refined D-pad for enhanced control and faster response.
For those favouring motion control, gamers can utilise the customizable 6-Axis Motion Control, allowing enhanced, fully customizable motion-based actions in FPS games with 6-axis motion control under 2.4G mode.
The included Integrated Charging Dock houses the 2.4G Adapter and keeps your controller fully charged and ready to play at all times, and even automatically reconnects when removed from the dock!
The 8BitDo Ultimate 2 Wireless Controller is available for purchase now, priced at €59.99 / £49.99, and is available in White, Black and Purple variants.
