8BitDo Ultimate Software V21.0.22

Map controller buttons, create custom profiles, and tune connected 8BitDo hardware from one desktop application with 8BitDo Ultimate Software V2. It lets you remap keys, disable selected functions, and assign different controls for particular games or play styles.

The macro recorder captures instruction sequences so several actions can be triggered with one keystroke, while advanced key remapping and audio configuration provide deeper control than the previous Ultimate Software. You can also adjust lighting effects and colors, then save profiles that keep your preferred control layout ready for different situations. Firmware updates are delivered through the software when available, helping keep supported devices current.

Compatibility covers the Pro 3 Bluetooth Gamepad; Ultimate 2, Ultimate 2C, and Ultimate Mobile Gaming Controller variants, including Xbox, WUCHANG: Fallen Feathers, and BLACK MYTH: WUKONG editions; Retro Receivers for N64, Saturn, and NGC; Retro 87, 68, S, 108, and 18 keyboards; Retro R8 mice; Retro Cube 2 Speaker; Joystick V2; NGC Mod Kit; and Wireless Dual Super Buttons. It suits players who want tailored controls for gaming sessions, as well as owners managing several 8BitDo peripherals.

The current 1.0.20 release is freeware in the Games category for macOS 12 Monterey or later and supports both Intel and Apple Silicon. The developer also identifies a Windows 10-and-later edition of Ultimate Software V2.
