You can customise the left stick as well as the right stick this time around, and the thumbsticks are still opposed rather than the usual PS4 parallel.
The Pro 2 is an improved version of last year’s model it boasts USB-C connectivity – instead of that pin-type thing – and is compatible with PCs. Come to think of it, if you’ve ever looked at your PS4 controller and wished it were more like its Xbox counterpart, well, you’ve come to the right place. The Nacon Revolution Pro 2 is the sequel to the 2016 PlayStation 4 third-party controller, and aims to be for the PS4 what the Elite is for the XBO. This feature lets you customize your profile to the tiniest detail.Nacon have followed up their last custom controller endeavour with a new and improved version. Still, the customization is one feature that makes the Nacon Revolution Pro Controller 3 another remarkable creation.
So if you plug it on to your PC and set the dials to something else, there’s a possibility you could detonate a grenade when least expect it. However, the button’s sensitivity to touch depends on how you grip the controller.įrom the documentation, two of the four buttons essentially act as substitutes for pressing the analog sticks. It’s so easy to push, which can mean actions for your characters you didn’t intend or anticipate, which could further lead to quick deaths. As for the buttons, you’d surely not make a mistake when tapping because they’re made to be more significant and visible throughout. It is stable, feels sturdy, and the plastic shell that feels like the helmet of a juggernaut. The build is quite the make, and you would expect a premium outing. What you get is a sturdy case for the whole package, which houses the controller, cable, and cardboard box of weights. For instance, there’s no plastic case for the weights, instead what you get is a cardboard box.Īnother one is the convex caps designed for your joysticks you don’t get it as well. While you still get the extra weight as with the Nacon Revolution Unlimited Pro, the accessories and controllers aren’t that similar in standards. Besides, Nacon’s officially licensed controllers’ still lack some essential features like controller audio and light bar.īut it detects the character you are during gameplay, a feature that got adopted from the DualShock 4. Now talking about lights, the purpose of the LED light around the joystick is to inform you of the particular setting the controller is on. Besides, I think every excellent controller should have this in-built. There’s an option for next-level customization where you can put on weights and take of the grips if you decide to for a weightier feel. Also, it’s a thick twisted cable, so no worries for damages or getting caught.Īlso, it has the same quality as its predecessors, sturdy, and durable. However, the cable is 3 meters long, so that may not pose much concern. This may not seem important, but when sitting at a distance, then suddenly, you wish it had support for wireless control, especially if you want to crossplay between PC and PS4. Unlike the Revolution Unlimited Pro, PlayStation, or Xbox controller, this particular controller was built to be wired. Well, as you may have guessed, Wireless compatibility. However, you may say it’s cheaper than the Revolution Unlimited Pro, as mentioned earlier, but it lacks one essential feature, which makes the typical Pro controller remarkable. You sure would be paying $100 or £90 for the controller. To start with, the fact that the Nacon Revolution Pro Controller 3 comes at a high price turns most avid gamers off. The truth is that the Nacon Revolution Pro Controller 3 is no way up to par with the Nacon Revolution Unlimited, however, bear in mind this is not a bad controller at all! However, the problem is in comparing it to its superior, which is also more expensive, Nacon Revolution Unlimited Pro. It’s not a bad controller, in fact, not in any form or shape at all. After having read angry comments on the PlayStation Europe official YouTube channel concerning the new Navon Revolution Pro Controller 3, that launched late last year, I think it’s time we had a thorough review of this controller.Īlso, knowing that Nacon had already launched two successful controllers (Nacon Revolution Unlimited Pro and Nacon Asymmetric Wireless Controller) that seem to be better than the Nacon Revolution Pro Controller 3, why did they release this one?
