Borderlands 4 Xbox Controller Launches with The Timekeeper Design

Before we break down whether this controller belongs in your setup, it is worth looking past the flashy orange-and-black shell. Beyond the Borderlands-inspired design, PowerA packed in competitive-level features that make this gamepad more than just merch. Now let’s talk about who should actually pick this one up.

Should You Buy the PowerA Borderlands 4 Xbox Controller
