This article covers 8BitDo Ultimate C Xboxの有線コントローラー.
Overview
The 8BitDo Ultimate C Xbox is a wired controller officially licensed by Microsoft, compatible with Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and Windows 10/11. It brings together the reliability of an official Xbox accessory with 8BitDo's signature focus on value and thoughtful features. At the heart of this controller are Hall Effect joysticks, which use magnetic sensors instead of physical contact potentiometers. This design virtually eliminates stick drift over time, making it a durable choice for competitive and casual gamers alike. The joystick base also features an RGB "Ring of Fire" with multiple lighting modes, adding a customizable visual flair to your setup. Wired connectivity ensures zero input lag and no battery anxiety, while the built-in 3.5mm audio jack lets you plug in a headset directly for game chat and audio. It's a straightforward, no-compromise controller for players who prioritize consistent performance.
Connectivity & Compatibility
The controller connects via a USB cable and works out of the box with Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and Windows 10/11. No additional drivers or configuration are needed on Xbox consoles. On Windows, you can use the Xbox Accessories app to remap buttons and adjust stick sensitivity. Note that this is a wired-only controller. If you prefer a wireless setup or need to play from a distance, you'll want to look at 8BitDo's wireless offerings instead. The cable length is adequate for desktop use, but may be restrictive for living room couch gaming.
