by Wolverine isn’t about to let Deadpool be the only one getting cheeky. Last week, Microsoft announced an Xbox controller called the Cheeky Controller, shaped like Marvel superhero Deadpool’s curvy butt. Since Deadpool and Wolverine are starring in a new movie together, that’s only fair, and now Microsoft has also announced a controller shaped like Wolverine’s butt.
“Okay, buddy, we heard you! In anticipation of the theatrical release of Marvel Studios’ Deadpool & Wolverine on July 26 and following the release of the custom Xbox Wireless Controller designed by Deadpool, fans everywhere have been clamoring for Logan’s Adamantium butt (on a controller, of course),” Microsoft’s new statement reads. “And because we can’t resist a little friendly competition (certainly not for fear of his temper), our team jumped right into production on this custom Xbox Wireless Controller inspired by Wolverine.”
To be fair, the two butts kind of look like two basketballs. But if that’s your thing (and you’re 18 or older), you can enter to win both. The Deadpool controller promotion asks interested players to follow Xbox on X and repost the official Xbox sweepstakes post. The Wolverine promotion says you need to find the designated promotional post containing #MicrosoftCheekySweepstakes from @Microsoft on Instagram and follow the instructions. It didn’t appear to be live as of Monday morning PT.
But when you read the fine print of the contest, it seems like the winner will get both controllers, as well as a custom Xbox and a custom Xbox stand. I’ve reached out to Microsoft to confirm the details of the contest and to find out if there is just one winner or one for each superhero.
The controllers are part of a promotion for the upcoming Deadpool & Wolverine film, which hits theaters July 26 and stars Ryan Reynolds as Deadpool and Hugh Jackman as Wolverine.
