Nacon announces new PS5 controller, the Revolution 5 Pro

Third-party but not third-rate.

Nacon has published several games but these days it’s more known for its gaming accessories. It recently unveiled the Revolution 5 Pro controller which is officially licensed by PlayStation. The controller is compatible with the PS4, PS5, and PC.

It looks like the DualSense Edge and it has many of the same features, including back buttons. You can customize the Revolution 5 Pro, as it comes with 3 sets of weights, 3 stick sizes, and 3 sets of stick heads to have the controller feel perfect in your hands.

There are some reasons why you may pick the Nacon over Sony’s controller. Most notably, Nacon’s controller features asymmetrical sticks, which is a preference for some players. It also boasts a battery life of over 10 hours and supports Bluetooth audio in addition to wired headsets.

According to Nacon, this controller is geared towards gamers seeking maximum performance. It features magnetic Hall effect technology that brings increased accuracy and durability and gives you less reason to fear stick drift.

The controller is available in black and white, and it is set to release in October. You can pre-order it for $199.90. If you’re looking for greater accessibility, you may want to turn to Sony’s upcoming Access Controller which is highly customizable and catered towards players with varying needs.
