The Stealth Ultra features Turtle Beach's proprietary low-latency wireless connectivity for Xbox consoles and Windows PCs, as well as Bluetooth for gaming on supported Smart TVs and Android mobile devices. The controller's tactile microswitches provide fast and reliable responses, lasting up to five times longer than standard buttons found in other controllers. The AntiDrift thumbsticks eliminate drift for precise control, and the adjustable triggers ensure a response suited to the game being played.
One of the standout features of the Stealth Ultra Controller is its full-color Connected Command Display. This display allows gamers to customize RGB lighting, game and chat audio settings, thumbstick sensitivity, mappable buttons, and more. Additionally, the controller can receive social notifications from a connected phone, all displayed on the controller's dashboard. The Stealth Ultra also offers adjustable power modes, providing up to 30 hours of battery life on a single charge. The controller comes with a low-profile charging dock for convenient storage when not in use.
The Designed for Xbox Stealth Ultra Wireless Smart Controller is available for pre-order at a price of $199.99 MSRP from the Turtle Beach website and participating retailers worldwide. The controller will be launched on December 15, 2023.

"Turtle Beach controllers have been designed to provide the ultimate in control and to integrate features far exceeding the category. The all-new Stealth Ultra is a supreme testament to that ideal and another clear example of Turtle Beach continuing to deliver on that promise to our fans."
The Stealth Ultra's Connected Command Display keeps gamers connected while playing and offers extensive settings and adjustments accessible right on the controller's dashboard. The display shows social media notifications from a connected phone, eliminating the need to glance away from the game. It also allows players to adjust controller performance aspects and visual style with 16.8 million different RGB colors.
In terms of durability and performance, the Stealth Ultra is designed to last. It features premium materials, including soft-touch finishes and a comfortable ergonomic shape. The controller's tactile microswitches are rated at a five million click lifecycle, ensuring reliable and fast responses. The AntiDrift thumbsticks enhance accuracy and durability, and the trigger stops are adjustable for different gaming scenarios. The Stealth Ultra also comes with a low-profile charging dock and adjustable power modes for extended battery life.
The Stealth Ultra offers Turtle Beach's standard suite of audio features, enhancing any wired gaming headset connected via the 3.5 mm jack. It also includes dual-rumble motors for immersive vibration feedback and is compatible with the Control Center 2 companion app for further customization options.
When not in use, the Stealth Ultra controller, charge dock, cables, and additional thumbcaps can be stored in the included hardshell travel case, which also features a built-in slot for charging the controller while in its case.
