CRKD has revealed the Neo S controller that won’t be an embarrassment on the morning commute.
CRKD has announced a new handheld gaming controller that stands out from the crowd. Combining striking style, a retro silhouette, and a sleek customizable package, the Neo S controller really does stand out from the crowd. Featuring a small rectangular platform, the new product from the team behind eh Nitro Deck crams in a Hall Effect thumbsticks, a range of connections, and plenty of programable options to elevate your play.
Dropping at around £49.99 the NEO S is already available for pre-order through CRKD.gg and will hit doorsteps around April 2024. It comes in a range of styles, from clear crystal to neon pink, and a stunning retro gold and red option. Teach handset has Hall Effect thumbsticks, providing drift free, precision gaming, and adjustable actuation Hall Sensor Triggers to make this unique controller play the way you want. An internal gyroscope for Switch motion control, a no dead zone mode for the analog sticks, and fully swappable thumbsticks mean that there’s plenty to tinker with for the price.
Bizarrely, CRKD is platforming these quirky new controllers as a set of collectibles. Rather than be happy with one or two, the team are seemingly out for you to compete and grab the rarest configuration, for reasons. Every design in the NEO S collection is fully compatible with the CRKD True Collection System App available on iOS™ and Android®, allowing owners to easily register their NEO S to their CRKD collection. Within the App’s interface, gamers can unveil essential details such as the product number and rarity rank. Future updates will empower users to personalize their NEO S experience by adjusting settings, including button remapping and setting trigger actuation points, among other customization options. While this seems like an odd mix of priorities, you might want one of these fabulous looking handsets at day one.
Me, I’ll be holding on for button mapping in the app before putting money down. You can pre order the Neo S and get something distinctly different from other controllers on the official website now.
