We’ve been highly won over by Nacon’s output for Xbox over the years, from excellent headphones to all manner of controllers. So when they say they’re bringing out a new, premium controller that looks to improve upon the rather excellent Revolution X, you best be sure we’re paying attention.
The Revolution X Unlimited, coming at the end of 2024, promises a host of awesome sounding features, from Hall Effect Sticks (thankfully), trigger blockers for faster response times, a ten hour battery now it’s fully wireless, and the eye-catching LCD screen that enables much easier profile management. This is one QoL feature we’re happy to see, letting us manage set-ups without the need to load up an app on the console or our phones.
Check out the full list of features here, directly from Nacon:
Key features of the controller:
* Wireless connection (with dongle) to the Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PC
* 3 connection types: radio frequency, wired and/or Bluetooth
* Up to 10 hours of battery life
* Sticks with Hall effect technology to reduce stick drift and increase the controller’s lifespan
* An LCD screen for easy and intuitive programming and audio source mixing
* Trigger blockers with micro-switches
* 6 programmable shortcut buttons
* Directional pad and action buttons with micro-switch technology for maximum responsiveness
* Includes 2 alternative directional pads, 6 extra weights, 6 stick heads and 2 stick rings so players can adjust the ergonomics to their own play style
A PC mode that provides:
* Reduced latency of 1-2ms
* Gyroscopic technology to simulate joysticks
* Specific shortcut key programming
Obviously we’ll need to get our mitts around it to see if all the above comes together to form a satisfying whole, but based on their track record we’re very hopeful it will.
