    A must if you want to do more precise gaming" specially with shooter games like warezone. This is a "CORE" controller so it won't come with any extras like bumpers or paddles, etc. Its basicall just the controller

    I love how the controller feels but that's about it. Right out of the box the ABXY buttons will randomly double-input.

    First one I picked up was missing all of the accessories and was filthy. Returned it and grabbed a different one. Second one was in near perfect condition. Be careful with the open box products.

    Got this for my son for his birthday. He's a big Fortnite gamer and wanted something that would improve his play. He also loved the color as well.
