One of our favorite PS5 controllers is at its cheapest-ever price, but only for a limited time

If you missed the discount when it struck on Prime Day, one of the best PS5 controllers has returned to the super-low price it temporarily hit several weeks ago. The Nacon Revolution 5 Pro is a fantastic pro controller (and got a better review score than Sony's own DualSense Edge) and it's beaten the sales price we'd grown a little tired of seeing earlier in the year.

For a limited time only, one version of the Nacon Revolution 5 Pro is down to $119.99 on Woot. This Amazon-owned deals site often has decent savings on various gaming peripherals, but it's rare to see one of our favorite options enjoy a price cut.

Nacon Revolution 5 Pro | $199.99 $119.99 at Woot
Save $80 - We've never seen this pro-tier PS5 controller go cheaper than this current price. The deal is only on the camo-colored controller, so there's a chance it could run off the shelves quicker.

UK: £149.99 at Very

There are a few caveats with this Woot order. Firstly, there's a limit of one controller per customer. Secondly, Woot keeps its discounts going until they sell out, or a time limit is reached. In the case of the Nacon Revolution 5 Pro, those numbers will jump back up on November 1.

I couldn't find any other models of the controller (read: the non-camo ones) discounted on Woot, however the two plain models: black and white, are both down to $169.90 on Nacon's website, and the white model is at $149.99 at Amazon.

Should you buy the Nacon Revolution 5 Pro?

As you can tell from the name, the Nacon Revolution 5 Pro is a pro-style controller, so if you're perfectly happy with your DualSense and don't need any extra customization options you don't need the Revolution.

At this price point, the Nacon is a good bridge for those who have been curious about Pro controllers, but are equally put off by their high prices. The DualSense Edge sells for the same $199 MSRP as Nacon, but rarely goes on sale (it's only ever been about $20 off once since release).

The Nacon Revolution 5 Pro is our top pick for durability overall as well, with features like stick drift-resistant sensors and a premium finish. These mean you won't be replacing your controller after a few months of hardcore Battlefield 6 or Black Ops 6 frustrations.

We could see the Nacon Revolution 5 Pro return to this price, or go even lower, in November's Black Friday PS5 deals. It's worth remembering, though, that Black Friday is better for breadth of sales than depth.

We're also rounding up the best PC controllers as well as the best Xbox controllers and the best PS5 steering wheels for more.
