8BitDo launches their new Ultimate 2 wireless controller

• 8BitDo have released their new Ultimate 2 Wireless Controller
• Boasting 8Speed technology, it aims to eliminate the slightest lag for Bluetooth input
• It also boasts other features to round out this revamped new version

It really is a big day for mobile controllers. Not only have we had the X5 Lite and the CRKD x Goat Simulator collab, but those of you looking for the 'Ultimate' peripheral are in luck. Because 8BitDo are throwing their hat in the ring with their Ultimate 2 Wireless Controller!

While it has all kinds of bells and whistles, the main selling point of the Ultimate 2 Wireless Controller is its 8Speed technology. Intended to eliminate even the most fractional of input lag, it shows that the Ultimate 2 is most definitely aimed at the more hardcore of players amongst you.

Okay, but what else does the Ultimate 2 boast? Well, it has TMR (Tunnelling Magnetoresistance) Joysticks which are alleged to offer enhanced sensitivity, precision and durability, while also consuming less power. It all sounds very good, and very high-tech at that.

Of course, it wouldn't be a wireless controller without the addition of RGB as well, with fully interactive and adjustable lighting so you can select your preferred mode. The Triggers, meanwhile, utilise Hall-Effect technology, and a Mode Switch to let you adjust them to your preference.

Aside from all those fancy names, the Ultimate 2 can best be described as an updated and refined version of the original. And while all the bells and whistles are indeed nice, it would seem that the Ultimate 2 is primarily marketed towards players who are looking for minimal input lag - with that in mind, it'll be whether it holds up in play that matters.

Still, you don't always need a fancy controller to play some of the best mobile releases. Need some examples that you won't need to break the bank for? Check out our list of the top five new mobile games to try this week to get started!
