The folks over at 8BitDo<\/a> seem to be constantly putting out new Xbox products at the moment, and the latest is a “Jade” version of the Ultimate 3-mode Controller series that already exists in white and black variants.<\/p>\n

The difference with the Jade Xbox Controller is that it’s “inspired by the iconic Transparent Green Edition of the original Xbox<\/a> console”, and it’s also described as a “perfect companion to the Xbox retro keyboard and mouse<\/a>“:<\/p>\n

Introducing 8BitDo Ultimate 3-mode Controller for Xbox – Jade. Inspired by the original Xbox console. Designed to play cross platform. Perfect Companion to the Xbox Retro Keyboard and Mouse. Officially licensed by Xbox.<\/p>\n

You’ll find some cool features with this thing, including Hall Effect joysticks and Hall Effect impulse triggers, two “Pro” back paddle buttons, a 3-way mode switching button and much more, and it’s reasonably priced at just $69.99.<\/p>\n

It’s also a wireless controller by design, but that sadly doesn’t include console – so you can play wirelessly on PC and mobile devices, but Xbox consoles require a wired connection. That’s the only downside we can see at first glance.<\/p>\n

We’ll throw some screenshots down below for the 8Bitdo “Jade” Ultimate 3-Mode Controller, and if you’re interested, pre-orders are available now on Amazon with a release date of May 15th, 2025<\/strong>. Alternatively, the black and white versions of the controller are already purchasable right now.<\/p>\n
