An attractive discount is currently available on the official Black Myth: Wukong 8BitDo controller. The 8BitDo Ultimate 2C Wireless Controller, originally priced at $35, is now available for just $26.24 for Prime members. For those preferring a wired connection, a version featuring the identical translucent black design is marked down to $16.49, reduced from $25. This Ultimate 2C model is designed for compatibility with PC and Android devices.
A key selling point of this controller is its distinctive design, boasting a translucent plastic casing adorned with elements inspired directly by the world of Black Myth: Wukong, including tastefully integrated flames and sigils. Beyond its eye-catching exterior, the controller houses high-performance internal components.
Like other standard Ultimate 2C models, it features Hall Effect joysticks for precision, a rapid 1000Hz polling rate via 2.4G or wired connections for minimal latency, two additional remappable bumper buttons, and a turbo function for rapid-fire inputs.
Comparing the Ultimate 2C with Flagship 8BitDo Ultimate Controllers
The Ultimate 2C is positioned as a more budget-friendly option within 8BitDo`s premium Ultimate Controller series. Earlier this year, 8BitDo introduced new flagship models: the Ultimate 2 and Ultimate 2 Bluetooth Controllers. These advanced versions retain the remappable shoulder buttons found on the 2C, incorporate the back buttons from the original Ultimate series, and feature upgraded TMR electromagnetic sticks (an improvement over Hall Effect technology). Additionally, they include adjustable trigger locks and various other enhancements for an improved user experience.
The 8BitDo Ultimate 2 controller is available in multiple color options, with its first themed edition, the Wuchang: Fallen Feathers Ultimate 2 Controller, having launched on July 21. This visually appealing controller is priced at $65.
Beyond the controller, discounts on the Black Myth: Wukong game itself are also available. The digital deluxe edition for PC and the physical edition for PS5 can be found at reduced prices.
According to Richard Wakeling`s review, Black Myth: Wukong truly excels in its intricate and frequent boss battles, which often occur consecutively. While the segments between these intense encounters can sometimes feel less engaging or even tedious, the game`s highly satisfying combat and diverse array of boss challenges largely compensate for these shortcomings.
