Helldivers 2 has a pretty wild controller layout. From mashing directional keys to order stratagems to switching between first and third person, to swinging the camera around as quickly as possible to watch an orbital laser melt a giant bug - there's a lot going on.
If you've never looked into the best PS5 controllers before, I'd understand if Helldivers 2 is making you shop around. With so much chaos happening on screen and a lot of player actions to keep on top of, the PS5's DualSense may not be the best tool for spreading liberty to the galaxy.
Luckily, if you are thinking of upgrading your controller, Amazon's Spring Deal Days has you covered. As someone who reviews controllers, there are some surprisingly good deals on at the minute. First of all, the Victrix Pro BFG, the gamepad I use for Helldivers 2 currently, is down to £131.99 at Amazon - which is one of the cheapest prices I recall seeing it at.
While the Victrix Pro BFG is my go-to PS5 controller to recommend, it's not the only deal worth considering just now. The Razer Wolverine V2 Pro has the most buttons of any controller available for Sony's flagship console, and it's currently cheaper than ever. Although the RRP is all the way up at £249, it's down to just £199 at Amazon in the Spring sale.
Annoyingly, these discounts haven't stretched to the US yet, but since the sale is set to run for the next five days, we'll update this page if these controller deals make their way across the Atlantic.
