Q: QuestionDoes it come with the back buttons(16 answers)
A: AnswerPer the release announcement, it has the capability to use back paddles however the controller will not come with them. They will be sold separately or if you have accessories from the first Elite series two controller, you can use those accessories.Answered by Tony
- A: AnswerThe difference in price is because this is the core. Does not include the paddles and extra joy sticks. Also no case, it's just the controller and a charging cable. I upgraded to this one because my previous elite RB was going out and I didn't need all the extras so I just put them on the new one.

Whether you're fine-tuning your aim in a first-person shooter or optimizing your button layout for a fighting game, the possibilities are endless.Furthermore, the addition of Bluetooth connectivity and a rechargeable battery means no more tangled wires or constant battery replacements. The convenience factor alone is worth the investment.In terms of performance, the Elite Series 2 delivers in spades.

Great controller, worth the money
The package came at a different address a couple houses away but it was alright since this controller exceeded my expectations, the grip feels nice on my hands and the controller overal seems to be pretty durable. I found some troubles with the button mappings on the controller but that was just because there are many options and different customizations available. If your looking to buy this controller I’d say you should and it is worth the price!
