There’s another PS4 controller coming to market in just a few weeks, and it’s another officially licensed product from BigBen Interactive and NACON, so you know you’re in for a high-quality treat.
The NACON Revolution Pro Controller 3 will be the latest in the ongoing Revolution product line, and it’s to be an improvement over previous iterations, though still familiar for those who’ve gotten to grips with the previously released controllers. The big difference this time around is that it is a purely wired controller, not wireless. For some that may seem less than ideal, but for those eSports players looking to keep their competitive edge, those precious milliseconds of input lag on a wireless controller can make or break a tightly fought game. And as a bonus feature… you won’t have to charge the bloody thing. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve been put to rest because my controller’s battery died mid-game.
The NACON Revolution Pro Controller 3 for PS4 will release in the UK, Europe, South Africa, Australia, New Zealand, Middle East and India this October, and it’ll be priced between €99,90 – €109,90, though prices may vary by retailer. There’s no confirmed release date at the moment, just a promise of sometime in October. In the meantime, have a gander at the controllers specs and features down below:
