Get a DualShock 4 controller today for $40 ($20 off)

Sony's DualShock 4 is our top choice for a PC controller, thanks to its sturdy build quality and excellent analog trigger feel. If you've been looking to buy a new controller, multiple colors of the DualShock 4 are now $39.99 on Newegg. That's $20 below the MSRP, and $5-10 cheaper than the usual price.

The DualShock 4 is more compact than the Xbox One controller (which is still on sale for the same price), but includes a touchpad at the top. You'll need to install the free DS4Windows utility to play some PC games, which is a minor annoyance, but it allows you to remap the buttons and use the touchpad as a PC mouse. And Steam's controller support now makes it easy to play most of your games without a utility.

You can buy the DS4 from the links below. Multiple colors are available.

The DualShock 4 is our top choice for a PC controller, even though you need to install custom software to play most games. The black, silver, and blue camouflage styles are on sale.

Some online stores give us a small cut if you buy something through one of our links. Read our affiliate policy for more info.

A Classic Clear CRKD NEO S rectangular controller sits on a desk between one black keyboard and one grey keyboard. The controller takes up much of the frame, but is clearly much smaller than both of the keyboards. The controller body is made of cloudy, clear plastic, allowing the viewer to see the internals.
