Force the enemy to leave the game with these Razer Wolverine Xbox controller deals
Upgrade your game with an unfair advantage ahead of Cyber Monday.
Wanting to treat yourself (or a loved one) to a new Xbox Series X|S controller? We've spotted a handful of early Cyber Monday deals that see up to $50 discounted off the MSRP on Razer's Wolverine V2 line-up of gamepads. They're all wired controllers, which may be a deal-breaker if you prefer to enjoy life without being tethered to your console, but the specs are nothing but impressive.

The 8Bitdo M30 is a multi-platform game controller modeled after the Sega Genesis and Mega Drive's gamepads, and now it's on sale for $25.49 for Black Friday.

The company sells a wide range of controllers in several sizes, compatible with multiple platforms. 8Bido's high-end gamepad, the SN30 Pro+, is now on sale for $42.49 at Amazon.
