Best Xbox controllers 2021: Get the edge with these official and third-party pads

The Xbox Wireless Controller may have been tweaked for the Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S, but the design has largely remained the same over the last few console generations.

This is a testament to a great bit of design, but there are still some limitations to the controller you receive out of the box.

Whether it's not quite the right shape for you, or because you want some extra buttons and functionality, picking up a different controller could be a game-changer.
