Nacon has surprised us all with the announcement of a new controller for PlayStation 5, with an official license. Its name is Nacon Revolution 5 Pro and among its main features we find that it is modular.
This French manufacturer wanted to create a peripheral capable of being repaired or modified in a simple way by the user, something that the official controller itself does not offer, and which gives a lot of play for its buyers.
Key Features of the Nacon Revolution 5 Pro:
- Analog Drift Prevention: Unlike many DualSense controllers, this controller boasts technology that effectively prevents analog drift.
- Cross-Platform Adaptability: The Revolution 5 Pro is not limited to the PS4; it’s also compatible with computers and soon, smartphones. A simple button on the back allows users to switch between these platforms effortlessly.
- Magnetic Technology: The joysticks and triggers utilize magnetic technology, enhancing precision and durability while eliminating drift issues.
- Trigger Blocker: Offering adaptability to various game genres and player preferences.
- Wireless Connectivity: Seamlessly connect to a Bluetooth device and switch between console audio and external audio with a single touch.
- Complete Customization: Enjoy extensive customization with four profiles per deck, three sets of weights, three joystick sizes, three sets of thumbsticks, an external microphone input, and a whopping 60 customization options.
- Dedicated Application: Customize your controller through the dedicated Windows and Mac application, with support for Android and iOS smartphones coming in 2024.
The true innovation lies in its modular capabilities, allowing users to change colors, designs, or replace any damaged or outdated parts or accessories.
While the Nacon Revolution 5 Pro comes at a price of €229.90, it’s an investment in a controller that can last a lifetime. Any issues that arise can be easily resolved, ensuring you won’t need to replace it even after moments of frustration. However, it’s important to note that there are alternative controllers on Amazon with similar features and details available for less than €30. The choice ultimately depends on individual preferences and priorities.
While the controller is available for pre-order now, official distribution is set for October, with the exact release date yet to be confirmed. Free shipping is offered for those who purchase during the pre-order period.
