NACON is back with a new high-end peripheral for the gaming accessory enthusiasts out there. The NACON Revolution 5 Unlimited is an officially licensed PlayStation 5 controller featuring some of the latest and greatest technology. Though licensed for the PlayStation 5, the Revolution 5 Unlimited can also be used on PC.
The Revolution 5 Unlimited is claimed to be "the culmination of years of research and continuous feedback from the esports community and the most demanding competitive players." In other words, it includes a bunch of added buttons, a lot of configurations, a lot of customizations, and some of the latest tech for the thumbsticks and triggers. This is the first NACON controller to make use of TMR magnetic technology for the thumbsticks. The triggers utilize Hall effect technology as well as instant-trigger technology with a tactile click.
Of course, there are a ton of added buttons that can be mapped to all sorts of different shortcuts. There are also special modes such as the "Shooter Pro Mode" that "completely removes joystick dead zones to deliver enhanced responsiveness, precision, and performance."
The Revolution 5 Unlimited won't be cheap though. In fact, it's going to be quite expensive. The website says that the price is $199.90, but their press release claims its retail price is $229.99. Either way, that's a pretty good chunk of change right there.
The built-in control screen – a world-first for an officially licensed PS5 controller - offers instant adjustments without ever leaving the game. Players can adjust audio mixing, joystick sensitivity, shortcut mapping, and manage controller system settings on the fly.
At the heart of the controller, TMR (Tunneling Magnetoresistance) magnetic technology makes its debut in NACON’s lineup, to significantly improve reliability, while delivering surgical precision and reduced power consumption.
Built for competition, the R5U features micro-switch action buttons, Trigger Blockers with instant trigger technology to switch from an analog pull to an ultra-short click, as well as multiple remappable shortcut buttons. It also boasts advanced software features, such as the Shooter Pro Mode, which completely removes joystick dead zones to deliver enhanced responsiveness, precision, and performance.
The controller comes with comprehensive accessories, a storage case and a dedicated charging dock - for the first time at NACON for an officially licensed PS5 controller - allowing users to charge and connect their gear in one convenient place.
Designed to be highly versatile, it also includes:
- Triple connectivity compatible with PS5® console, PC*, and Android Smart TVs, supported by a dedicated mobile app (iOS/Android) for fine-tuning advanced settings.
- A dedicated PC mode offering ultra-low 1ms latency and advanced features via the mobile app (such as mapping shortcut keys, configuring gyroscopic controls, etc.).
