The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nacongaming.com\/en-US\/revolution-5-unlimited\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Revolution 5 Unlimited<\/a>\u2019s screen can also be used to mix audio from multiple sources so while using a pair of headphones connected to the gamepad with a cable you can listen to music from your phone and sounds from the game you\u2019re playing at the same time.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1044qizi _18mzr4b1 _18mzr4b0 _19wv7tc1\">The Revolution 5 Unlimited is available for preorder starting today for $229.99 <a href=\"http:\/\/nacongaming.com\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">through Nacon\u2019s online store<\/a> and is expected to ship sometime later this year. While it\u2019s primarily designed for use with the PS5, the R5U features an asymmetrical stick layout similar to Xbox and Switch gamepads with a pair of drift-resistant tunneling magnetoresistance (TMR) thumbsticks. Both sticks can be customized by attaching alternate heads featuring different designs and the controller\u2019s D-pad is swappable. You can use a classic four-way design or switch to an eight-way option that makes it easier to perform combo moves in fighting games.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1044qizi _18mzr4b1 _18mzr4b0 _19wv7tc1\">Nacon even lets you adjust how balanced the controller feels with 10, 14, and 16 gram weights that can be inserted into the R5U\u2019s non-slip grips.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1044qizi _18mzr4b1 _18mzr4b0 _19wv7tc1\">On the top of the controller you\u2019ll find a pair of shoulder buttons, a pair of customizable shortcut buttons, and a pair of triggers with adjustable travel that can be shortened to reduce reaction times in FPS games. There\u2019s four additional customizable shortcut buttons on the back of the controller as well as a button used for quickly switching between multiple saved profiles.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1044qizi _18mzr4b1 _18mzr4b0 _19wv7tc1\">The R5U is also compatible with PCs and Android devices and customizing its performance and functionality isn\u2019t limited to its built-in screen. Nacon also offers a mobile app for iOS and Android that expands the customization options to include adjusting the thumbsticks\u2019 response curves, tweaking EQ profiles for the audio sources, and modifying the color of the RGB lighting surrounding the right stick.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Nacon announced what the company is claiming is the world\u2019s first officially licensed PlayStation 5 controller with a&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":790081,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[786,205,59,50,954,227,86,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-790080","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-technology","tag-gadgets","tag-gaming","tag-gb","tag-news","tag-playstation","tag-tech","tag-technology","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/790080","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=790080"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/790080\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/790081"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=790080"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=790080"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=790080"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
