PowerA has rolled out a special edition wireless controller for Xbox Series X|S, aimed squarely at Fortnite fans who take their gaming (and their Victory Royales) seriously. This premium gamepad packs competition-grade components and high-performance features but doesn’t take itself too seriously—just like a good Fortnite match.
The controller features Hall Effect thumbsticks and triggers, which use magnetic sensors to provide a smooth, pro-level feel. Translation: your thumbsticks won’t get janky after a few intense sessions. Plus, with low-latency wireless tech, it keeps your gameplay responsive, whether you’re on an Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, or PC. And yes, it comes with a 10-foot USB-C cable, so even if you run out of juice, you won’t be tethered too close to your console. Long cords for the win!
Customization is another strong suit here. The PowerA Gamer HQ App lets you tweak everything from rumble strength to trigger sensitivity and even dead zones. That way, whether you’re sniping or speeding, you’ll have everything dialed in. And if you have a few different favorite setups, the profile button makes switching between three of them easy—no need to redo your settings every time you hop into a new game.
Speaking of staying ahead of the competition, the Wireless Controller for Xbox Series X|S – Fortnite SE ($99) includes four mappable advanced gaming buttons. They can be programmed on the fly, mid-game, which means no more trips to the settings menu just to remap a button. Whether you’re juggling a build battle or pulling off a sneaky flank, these buttons have you covered. If you’re new to the game or looking to get a head start, you might want to purchase a Fortnite account to jump right into the action.
If shooters or racing games are more your speed, the 3-Way Trigger Locks let you adjust the trigger travel distance. Want quicker shots? Lock ‘em short. Going for that perfect drift? Open them up for full throttle. The impulse triggers, complete with rumble motors, help make sure you feel the action without shaking your hands off the controller.
This officially licensed Xbox controller features a rechargeable battery that promises up to 30 hours of gaming on a single charge. And just to sweeten the deal, it includes a bonus virtual item for Fortnite—a Tooth Pick Pickaxe. Your enemies might not fear it, but hey, at least you’ll look good using it.
The controller isn’t just about performance. Comfort gets a nod too, with an ergonomic design, textured grips, and anti-friction rings. Perfect for those marathon sessions where you lose track of time and suddenly realize it’s 3 a.m.
And when you need to share your most epic gaming moments, the dedicated share button makes capturing and posting screenshots and video clips a breeze. No more fumbling through menus while your moment of glory slips away.
