Love a bit of Fortnite? You’ll love the latest Xbox and Switch gaming accessories that have come out of the PowerA team. New controller, anyone?
PowerA are seemingly intent on filling the world with themed controllers and gaming accessories. They’ve done it previously with some Sonic Style and Cuphead controllers, and are well known for their light-filled Lumectra lines. Now they head into the world of Fortnite – the greatest game the world has ever seen.
In partnership with Epic Games, PowerA have today announced their Fortnite range. Initially this kicks off with some gear for both Xbox Series X|S and Nintendo Switch. That means new controllers, earbuds and cases featuring characters ripped straight from the universe.
Fortnite stars star
Peely and Midas star here, depending on your gaming format of choice.
Admittedly, Nintendo Switch takes centre stage. It comes with a new bold yellow colourway controller, sitting nicely alongside a protection case and some wired earbuds.
For Nintendo Switch, the Peely design captures the essence of the iconic character with the Nana Nana logo and a bold yellow colorway, outfitting PowerA’s popular Enhanced Wireless Controller for Nintendo Switch, Protection Case for Nintendo Switch, and new Wired Earbuds for Nintendo Switch.
Similar to other feature-packed PowerA Enhanced Nintendo Switch Controllers, the Peely Controller stands out with a rechargeable lithium-ion battery providing up to 30 hours per charge.
Plenty of Nintendo Switch options
For convenient protection on the go, the Peely Protection Case features a molded interior with felt lining, a mesh storage compartment, and a custom Peely zipper pull suitable for Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch Lite, and Nintendo Switch – OLED Model.
Completing the collection, the Peely Wired Earbuds for Nintendo Switch will be the first in a new line of PowerA audio products that feature an ergonomic design with swappable silicone ear tips, a stylish protective pouch, and a built-in mic for supported games.
For us though, it’s the new PowerA Fortnite controller that is of most interest.

Complete with the Midas design, this draws inspiration from the enigmatic character, blending subtle patterns with high-impact graphics and a black and gold color palette that mirrors Midas’s iconic appearance in the game. The design is outfitted on PowerA’s new Advantage Wired Controller for Xbox. That’s a controller equipped with the same features consumers have come to love, including immersive dual rumble motors, 3-way trigger locks for precision, and two mappable advanced gaming buttons that give gamers a competitive edge.
“With over 500M registered accounts worldwide and growing, it’s no secret that Fortnite remains a top game on all platforms.
