Amazon’s selling Xbox controllers super cheap this Boxing Day

For anyone opening up a shiny new Xbox Series X or S on Christmas Day, this is a deal you won’t want to miss.

Although Xbox consoles always come bundled with a standard controller, in order to truly take advantage of what’s on offer, I wouldn’t recommend purchasing a second controller.

Luckily, with Amazon giving up, it’s easy to save money by picking up a spare controller now. Price of white controller option reduced from £54.99 to £39.95 on Boxing Day.

While there’s no shortage of great single-player games for the Series Night Extravaganza) then a second or third controller is a must.

The obvious benefit is that having a few extra controllers allows you to dive into some great multiplayer games at any time. The aforementioned Master Chief Collection has several campaigns that can be played cooperatively in split-screen, which is the perfect ticket to nostalgia during the Christmas season.

If you haven’t played Hazelight Studios’ It Take Two yet, come with me, it’s a game you need to start immediately. This 2021 Game Awards winner is a comprehensive narrative-driven co-op game in which you play as a couple on the verge of divorce, only to be transformed into miniature dolls and must find a way back to reality. Striving to take human form.

It’s a roller coaster of a game with some heartfelt and emotional twists that easily cement it as a modern classic and well worth playing with friends or a partner during the holidays.

Also, it’s worth getting yourself a backup controller. In the unlikely event that your current controller of choice eventually fails, you don’t need to wait until a replacement controller comes along if you already have an extra controller waiting.

So whether you’re buying for yourself or for a new player this holiday season, be sure to take advantage of Amazon’s sale while it’s still live.
