Lenovo’s Legion Go 2 detachable controllers are now available to buy on their own, and they come with a welcome bonus for anyone who already owns the original Legion Go: full compatibility. That means you can upgrade your handheld gaming setup without buying a whole new device, while still enjoying improvements Lenovo built into the newer controller design.
Sold under the Truestrike name, these Legion Go 2 controllers are meant to be a more comfortable, better-fitting alternative to the original Legion Go controllers. Lenovo has refined the ergonomics, making them easier to hold during longer gaming sessions. Another key upgrade is charging flexibility. While the controllers still connect and charge when attached, the Legion Go 2 controllers also include USB-C charging support, giving you an additional way to power them up beyond the pogo-pin setup.
Pricing is normally steep if you buy both separately. The left controller is listed at $59.99, while the right controller costs $79.99. The higher price on the right side is due to its extra functionality: it can also be used as a vertical mouse, a feature designed to give players better control in first-person shooter games and other genres where precise aiming matters.
Right now, though, Lenovo is running a limited-time promotion that drops the cost dramatically. The left Truestrike controller is discounted to $32.39, and the right controller is down to $43.19. Add both to your cart and an additional coupon discount is automatically applied, taking another $8.40 off the total. The final price comes to $75.58 instead of the usual $139.98, a savings of more than $60.
Lenovo hasn’t shared how long the deal will last, so if you’ve been considering upgrading your Legion Go controllers, it may be worth acting sooner rather than later—especially since promotions like this can end without notice or run out of stock.
