Victrix ProCon BFG Wireless Controller for PS5, PS4, PC

Product Information

Victrix Control Hub Customization App: Players can make their controller as unique as their playstyle with the free Victrix Control Hub Plug the included USB-C cable into the USB-C port on the top of the controller, and the other end into your PS5™ console, PS4™ console, or PC. Once I had the controller set up and synced with the console, I decided to test out a variety of different games for any lag, unresponsiveness, or other glaringly obvious issues in comparison to the PS5 DualSense — which I am happy to say there isn't. The controller works like a dream with responsive controls that felt no different to that of the PS5 controller. I played games like Forspoken, Tekken 7, Tiny Tina's Wonderlands, and Cyberpunk 2077 — all worked perfectly. Tekken 7 was the prime candidate as that's the sort of game that this controller benefits best thanks to the many many buttons it has on offer that can be mapped however you, please. There is even a dedicated app you can get to help tweak and fine-tune everything to a T.

PATENTED MULTI-POSITION CLUTCH TRIGGERS: Boasting 5 different stopping points, the patented clutch triggers allow players to tune the trigger pulls to their specific liking, whether they want hair triggers, standard triggers, or something in the middle. You're shopping on a budget: If you want to save money, we would recommend buying the basic Xbox Wireless Controller instead. You get the same great ergonomic design for a much more affordable price. To remove the module, locate the included purple Module Swap Tool in the carrying case and unscrew the 2 hex-screws on the module. The screws will be retained in the module and will not remove entirely or fall out from the module plate.When we were testing the Nacon, we were particularly impressed by the comfort of it - it felt great to hold and use for long periods of time. However, a downside when we tried it was the fact that a USB wireless dongle was needed. When the battery level is critically low and will die any minute, an audible warning tone will play every minute through a connected headset. If you're a competitive gamer, such as someone who plays a lot of FPS or fighting games, then a pro controller might be worth considering despite being slightly more expensive than your standard controller. There are notable differences between pro controller, including lightweight frames and longer battery lives, which all make your gaming experience more convenient in competition. Before you buy a PS5 controller — especially one not officially made and released by Sony — you should know that the DualSense controller truly is the best bet for PS5 gaming. While some prefer to use after-market controllers for their added benefits like battery life, affordability, or customization options, the folks at Sony put so much time, effort, and money into perfecting their latest console’s controllers. For this reason, you can’t ever go wrong with simply buying the controller made and released by the console’s developers. As they always say, there is no need to reinvent the wheel. Using a PS5 Controller: What It’s Like Use a paperclip to press and hold the pinhole button on the side of the dongle for ~3 seconds until the LED begins blinking rapidly (pairing mode), then release

If you’re more accustomed to Xbox, Nintendo, or PC gaming, the PS5 controller might take some learning. Every console or gaming device has its own unique set of controls. It’s part of what gives each console a unique edge over its competitors. For this reason, a jump from one console to the other will require some trial and error as you get to know the controller for the first time. The PS5 controller is closest to the Xbox Series X controller but also resembles the Nintendo Switch controller. It’s probably the furthest thing from familiar for PC gamers, but you’ll learn fast. Patented Multi-Position Clutch Triggers: Boasting 5 different stopping points, the patented clutch triggers allow players to tune the trigger pulls to their specific liking, whether they want hair triggers, standard triggers, or something in the middle. Use the 3-position purple slide switch on the top of the controller (next to the USB-C port) to select between PS5™,PS4™, and PC to match the platform you are currently using. I wouldn't say battery life is the strong suit of either of these gamepads, to be honest with you. Both can be used in wired mode, if it's any consolation. Regardless, if it's battery life you want, maybe look for the Razer Wolverine V2 Pro, or look out for the incoming Nacon Revolution 5 Pro.
