Amazon’s October Prime Day season is here once again — nobody is actually calling it Big Deal Days, right? — and that means some of the best Xbox deals of the year are live. And no, I’m not just talking about the consoles themselves (though we did find some pretty incredible Xbox Series S deals).
In fact, I’d argue that many of the sweetest Xbox discounts on offer October 8-9 are for accessory products that enhance your gaming experience across Xbox and Windows PC. Amongst these peripherals, controllers are the most valuable and will have the biggest impact on your day-to-day gaming escapades, as pulling their triggers and pressing their buttons is the core way you interact with your favorite games.
As you’d expect, there are tons of great Xbox controller deals out there right now — many of them not even at Amazon — but which ones are the best? It’s a good question, and luckily, you don’t have to worry about figuring it out for yourself because I’m doing all the searching for you! Below, you’ll find a list of the most enticing Xbox controller markdowns I’ve found so far, including both official controllers from Microsoft and third-party ones.

Prime Day Xbox controller deals: FAQ
What’s the best Xbox controller that’s on sale?
With so many different Xbox controllers heavily discounted right now, it can be hard to know what the best Xbox controller to buy is. For most people, I think a standard Xbox Wireless Controller will offer the best balance of value and price, though I also strongly recommend PowerA’s gamepads to anyone looking to game on a budget. On the premium side of things, meanwhile, you’ll be best off with one of Microsoft’s Xbox Elite Controller Series 2 gamepads or something from Razer’s excellent Wolverine lineup.
Do I need an Amazon Prime membership for these deals?
You’ll need an Amazon Prime membership for any Amazon deals marked with the red “Prime Big Deal” tag (Amazon’s offered free trial counts) on their store page, but not for any other discounts visible on the seller’s website. None of the deals from other retailers listed here require other kinds of memberships, either, though you can get benefits like free shipping with Walmart Plus, Target Circle, My Best Buy, and the like.
When does October Prime Day end?
Amazon’s October Prime Day will last until 11:59 p.m. PT on October 9, at which point the event will officially conclude.
How long will these deals last?
While it’s likely that many of the Amazon-specific “Prime Big Deals” will go offline when October Prime Day itself does, several of them might remain available for a period of time after the event’s conclusion. The same is true for discounts on other storefronts, so keep that in mind (though I don’t recommend banking on stragglers sticking around).
