The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt celebrates its 10th anniversary this month, and we at CD Projekt Red have commemorated the milestone by collaborating with the Xbox team to create a tempered and battle-ready controller for players looking to expand their witcher's toolkit. Embark on the path with the Xbox Wireless Controller - The Witcher 3 10th Anniversary Special Edition and Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2 - Core The Witcher 3 10th Anniversary Special Edition. This is such a special moment for both our teams, and we wanted to share some insight into how Geralt's journey brought this design to life.

Our team has put great care into representing the style of The Witcher 3 and Geralt himself, headlined by the wolf medallion iconography at the center of the controller. The medallion acts as a constant for Geralt, one that allows him to adventure and warns him of lurking dangers, and we want players to connect with these controllers in the same way. We love how the design fits the layout of the controller, with the wolf's head coming below the Xbox button and between the other inputs with its glowing red eyes. It's very ominous and epic at the same time!

Alongside an impressive number of new case designs and components, Gamdias has presented robust gaming laptop coolers. The Aether product range is headlined by a P1 Pro model; versatile enough to accommodate 12 to 19-inch devices. High-elasticity foam padding ensures quiet operation, by minimizing unwanted vibrations. This flagship option—designed for gamers and content creators—is armed with an industrial-grade turbofan—powered via USB-C. Integrated RGB lighting zones can be controlled through a physical interface, along with fan settings.

Game Outlet Europe, an independent distributor of video games and gaming accessories and part of Embracer Freemode, today announced the all-new 8BitDo Arcade Controller range, the ultimate controller for the FGC (fighting game community) and arcade fans worldwide! Expected to ship across Europe in July 2025 and with pre-orders opening today, the 8BitDo Arcade Controller will be available in two variations, an officially licensed Xbox version (compatible with Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One and Windows PC), and a standard version (compatible with Nintendo Switch and Windows PC).

We wanted to give you a quick update on the estimated shipping schedule for our upcoming CRKD Gibson Les Paul Guitar Controller. Over the past few weeks, we've run into some inbound component delays with our manufacturing partner—largely due to ongoing uncertainty around international tariffs and broader supply chain challenges.

While we've taken steps to mitigate the impact of tariffs, a portion of these costs must be passed on. All U.S. pre-orders placed before June 1 will be honored at their original price. International pricing remains unchanged at this time. All pre-orders placed before June 1 on crkd.gg—U.S. and international—will also receive a complimentary CRKD Gradient Guitar Strap and Collector's Pin.

Nintendo's Switch 2 hybrid console is set to arrive early next month (June 5), complete with promised launch prices. Early last month, the company's basic cost of entry for next-gen access—$450 (US)—seemed to be on tenuous ground. Nintendo and its retail partners decided to postpone their opening of pre-orders—affecting excited customers in the United States, then (days later) in Canada. Thanks to political posturing, a number of big industry players had to restrategize. Late last week, Microsoft announced their implementation of global Xbox Series price increases. In April, Sony revealed similar changes for PlayStation 5; restricted to select market territories. Nintendo has allowed a re-opening of Switch 2 pre-orders; gamers can secure core hardware at original MSRPs. Unfortunately, a compromise was made—first-party Switch 2 accessories will be more expensive, on launch day and beyond.

During a recent call with investors, Nintendo's president—Shuntaro Furukawa—confirmed that their core hardware pricing is subject to change. Launch price tags are safe (for the moment); the company will need to radiate some goodwill during their next-gen design's salad days. Commenting on a shifting political landscape, Furukawa-san stated: "at this time, the top priority is to quickly popularize the Switch 2 hardware...If the assumptions regarding tariffs change significantly, we would like to consider what price adjustments we should make, and implement them after considering various factors." Industry analysis has produced a scary projection; worst case scenarios could send tech prices up by roughly 70%. Considering the vintage of Switch 2's alleged internals, gaming hardware enthusiasts have questioned the value offered by this $450 hybrid handheld.

With the rapid advancement of gaming laptop performance, more users are turning to notebooks for demanding tasks like AAA gaming, video editing, and streaming. Brook proudly introduces the Saviortop Gaming Laptop Cooler—a gaming-focused cooling solution designed to unlock the full potential of entry- to mid-tier gaming laptops. This external laptop cooling pad not only stabilizes system performance but also helps prolong device life and eliminate gameplay disruptions caused by heat.

Powerful Thermal Performance
The Saviortop laptop fan is equipped with a high-speed 3500 RPM turbofan and Brook's exclusive memory foam airflow sealing ring. This unique structure increases airflow pressure and locks the airflow path directly onto the laptop's thermal output zones. In real-world tests, the Saviortop reduces CPU/GPU temperatures by up to 20°C, keeping frame rates stable and gameplay smooth even under maximum load.

After the infamous US trade war escalated tariffs on Chinese goods to as high as 145%, many PC hardware and peripherals vendors have felt the pressure, with hardware companies, like Framework, previously both increasing prices on certain products and suspending orders on others altogether. In the case of Framework, this was later overturned when the US administration announced an exemption for certain electronics, including smartphones and computers. 8BitDo, however, has not been so lucky, with Polygon recently discovering that items not currently in the US warehouse cannot be shipped to the US. We confirmed this with a brief test of our own and found the same warning that our order could not be shipped to the US.

Curiously, there are no warnings on individual product pages or anywhere else on the 8BitDo website that give any indication that 8BitDo will not be able to fulfil orders with US shipping addresses. It's only after the products are added to the cart and buyers head to check out that the warning appears. In the case of Polygon, the warning specified which items could not be fulfilled, indicating that US warehouses still had stock of certain items, but when we tested it, the warning was less specific, reading only "Shipping not available. Your order cannot be shipped to the selected address. Review your address to ensure it's correct and try again, or select a different address." Amazon, on the other hand, still seems to have stock for at least some of 8BitDo's items available. We tested the 8BitDo Retro Mechanical Keyboard C64 Edition, which is unavailable via the 8BitDo site but is still listed at $99.99 on Amazon. Recently, Nintendo Switch 2 pre-orders were also suspended due to US tariffs on Chinese goods, and Gamers Nexus also recently published a deep dive detailing the sweeping effects of the increased pricing and uncertainty from the perspective of various US-based PC hardware vendors and system integrators.

The DOOM Slayer is back, and as we count down the days until you can explore the medieval world of DOOM: The Dark Ages, you'll need the right tools to get the job done. Introducing the Xbox Wireless Controller - DOOM: The Dark Ages Limited Edition, Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2 - DOOM: The Dark Ages Limited Edition, and the Xbox Series X Wrap - DOOM: The Dark Ages Limited Edition. This collection celebrates DOOM and the latest chapter in the franchise's storied history. From the runes adorning each piece, to specific homages like the matte green armor and the Mark of the Slayer, every detail in this collection has been thoughtfully selected to capture the essence of the DOOM universe.

If you're going to be the Slayer, you better look the part—gear up with the Limited Edition Xbox Wireless Controller in battle-worn green and silver. Crowned with 3D silver helmet spikes at the top and silver-plated sheathing on the two sides, this controller was forged for a demon-slaying super weapon. With additional touches like a rubberized, leather-like grip, a red thumbstick to match the chest port, and blood splatter resulting from your Shield Saw, every detail is crafted with the DOOM fan in mind.

Not too long after delivering its in-depth Switch 2 showcase, Nintendo of America and retail partners postponed pre-launch reservations for the forthcoming hybrid gaming console. An official announcement stated: "pre-orders for Nintendo Switch 2 in the U.S. will not start April 9, 2025 in order to assess the potential impact of tariffs and evolving market conditions. Nintendo will update timing at a later date. The launch date of June 5, 2025 is unchanged." The vast majority of industry watchdogs reckon that company will be assessing an adjustment of launch day product MSRPs. Last week's North American presentation outlined price points of $449.99 and $499.99; for a standard package and a Mario Kart World Pack (respectively). Theorized adjustments could extend to physical copies of games, as well as accessories; e.g. the Switch 2 Pro Controller.

Gamers further north—in the neighboring nation of Canada—were relieved about last week's alert being non-applicable to their market region. Up until yesterday, pre-orders were on track at CA$629.99 (base console) and CA$699.99 (with Mario Kart World). Unfortunately, the House of Mario's Canuck branch has confirmed that recent events have had a knock-on effect for local customers. As disclosed in a statement to MobileSyrup, Nintendo of Canada explained: "pre-orders for Nintendo Switch 2 in Canada will not start on April 9, 2025 in order to align with the timing of pre-orders to be determined in the U.S....Nintendo will provide updated information at a later date. The launch date of June 5, 2025 is unchanged." MobileSyrup's report was updated yesterday evening; with links to social media bulletins posted by the regional arms of Walmart and GameStop. Both retail outlets repeated Nintendo of Canada's disappointing message.
