Tomb Raider 30th Anniversary. A Tribute to Gaming History! đī¸
Few video game characters have made an impact quite like Lara Croft.
Since her debut in 1996, she's travelled across continents, uncovered ancient mysteries and become one of gaming's most recognisable characters.
This special-edition controller celebrates that incredible journey.
Its distinctive design features a golden-yellow finish, black controls and silhouettes representing Lara Croft throughout different generations of Tomb Raider.
The matching charging dock features anniversary-inspired symbols and artwork.
From the original adventures to the modern Survivor trilogy, the design celebrates Lara's evolution across three decades.
A beautiful tribute to a gaming legend, bru!
Golden Metal D-Pad. A Little Piece of Treasure! â¨
Every great Tomb Raider adventure needs a legendary artefact.
And this controller has one of its own!
The Ultimate 3 Tomb Raider Edition features a gold-coloured metal tactile D-pad, crafted from zinc alloy with a gold-coloured plated finish.
Unlike conventional plastic directional pads, this premium metal design adds a distinctive feel and appearance.
Whether you're navigating menus, playing platformers or enjoying retro games, the D-pad delivers tactile directional control.
It also creates a beautiful contrast against the controller's golden-yellow body.
A golden treasure you can actually use. Lara would approve!
Dual Force Ring Joysticks. Adjustable Precision at Your Fingertips! đ¯
Here's where things get seriously impressive.
The Ultimate 3 features 8BitDo's advanced Dual Force Ring joystick system.
This combines precision TMR joystick technology with adjustable stick tension and a soft-stop silicone ring beneath the joystick.
Want lighter joystick resistance for quick movements?
Adjust it to suit your preference.
Prefer firmer resistance for controlled aiming?
You can fine-tune that too.
The system is designed to provide smooth joystick movement while giving players greater control over the physical feel.
Whether you're exploring ancient ruins or playing competitive shooters, adjustable tension helps you tailor the controller to your style.
Your controller. Your preferred resistance. Your adventure!
TMR Joysticks. Next-Generation Magnetic Precision! đšī¸
The Ultimate 3 uses advanced TMR (Tunnelling Magnetoresistance) joystick sensors.
Unlike traditional potentiometer-based joysticks, TMR sensors use magnetic position detection rather than relying on the same sliding electrical contacts.
This helps reduce certain wear-related causes of joystick drift.
The controller also features:
- 12-bit ADC sampling
- 216MHz high-performance processor
- Adjustable joystick tension
- Soft-stop silicone joystick rings
Together, these technologies are designed to deliver precise, responsive analogue control.
Whether you're aiming carefully, navigating tricky jumps or exploring massive environments, the Ultimate 3 is ready to keep up.
Precision fit for a legendary adventurer!
Hall Effect Impulse Triggers. Two Ways to Play! âĄ
Different games demand different trigger behaviour.
That's why the Tomb Raider Anniversary Edition features Hall Effect impulse triggers with two adjustable trigger-stop positions.
Choose a longer trigger movement for games where gradual control matters, such as racing.
Or select a shorter movement for quicker activation during fast-paced action.
Hall Effect sensors use magnetic position detection, providing responsive analogue trigger input without relying on conventional contact-based sensing.
The triggers also support impulse vibration in compatible games and modes.
From ancient temples to the starting grid, you're ready for anything!
Four Additional Pro-Level Controls. Stay One Step Ahead! đŽ
Sometimes you need to activate a command without taking your thumbs off the joysticks.
That's where the Ultimate 3's additional controls come in.
Two Pro-Level Back Buttons
Convenient rear buttons that can be remapped to supported functions.
Two Fast Bumpers â L4 and R4
Extra shoulder controls that support quick custom mapping, including basic assignments without additional software.
These controls provide useful flexibility for players who want more options during demanding games.
Set up your favourite actions and create a configuration that feels natural.
Less finger gymnastics. More time to discover the next secret passage!
Up to 1000Hz Polling Rate on PC. Quick Reactions Matter! đ
When the action gets intense, responsive controls are essential.
The Ultimate 3 supports a maximum polling rate of 1000Hz on Windows PC, through supported wired and 2.4GHz connections.
This allows the controller to report inputs as frequently as once per millisecond under suitable conditions.
It's a useful feature for players who enjoy competitive PC games and responsive controls.
Important: The 1000Hz polling feature is for PC only and is not supported on Xbox consoles.
Six-Axis Motion Control. Explore Another Way to Play! đ¯
Want even more control options?
The Ultimate 3 includes customisable six-axis motion control for supported Windows PC configurations using the 2.4GHz connection.
Through 8BitDo Ultimate Software X, motion input can be mapped to the left or right joystick.
This provides an alternative input method for compatible games.
Whether you're experimenting with motion-assisted aiming or a different control layout, there's plenty to explore.
Six-axis motion control is a PC feature and is not available on Xbox consoles.
Integrated Wireless Charging Dock. Every Adventurer Needs a Base Camp! đ
After a long gaming session, even the greatest adventurer needs a place to rest.
Thankfully, the Tomb Raider Edition includes a matching wireless charging dock.
The dock features:
- Contactless charging.
- Magnetic alignment.
- Automatic reconnection when the controller is lifted.
- Storage for the included 2.4GHz adapter.
- Special Tomb Raider anniversary styling.
Simply place the controller onto the dock when you're finished gaming.
When you're ready for another adventure, lift it off and reconnect.
You can also connect the dock to a supported Xbox console or Windows PC using USB while keeping the wireless adapter inside.
Your controller gets its own little base camp. Proper clever, bru!
1000mAh Battery. Up to 20 Hours of Adventure! đ
Nobody wants their controller battery running flat halfway through exploring an ancient tomb.
That's just asking for trouble!
The Ultimate 3 features a 1000mAh rechargeable lithium-ion battery.
According to 8BitDo's official specifications:
- Battery Capacity: 1000mAh
- Battery Life: Up to 20 hours
- Charging Time: Approximately 4â5 hours
- Charging: Included wireless charging dock or compatible USB connection
That means plenty of potential gaming time between charges.
And with the included dock, keeping your controller ready is wonderfully convenient.
Your inventory might fill up before the battery runs out! đ
Four Vibration Motor Sets. Feel Every Adventure! đĨ
Gaming isn't only about what you see.
It's also about what you feel.
The Ultimate 3 features four sets of vibration motors, supporting immersive force-feedback effects in compatible games.
Feel the action during supported explosions, vehicle sequences and other gameplay moments.
Vibration settings can also be adjusted through compatible 8BitDo software.
Ancient traps, crumbling temples and epic battles just became a little more exciting!
3.5mm Audio Jack. Adventure With Your Squad! đ§
Want to chat with friends while gaming?
