New PS4, Xbox, Switch pads coming up from Power A

Peripheral maker Power A has a fresh twosome en route to stores for the Xbox One, PS4, and Nintendo Switch. One of them is just for fight fans.

Controllers are kind of funny things in the world of video game fandom. Even with multiple choices for third-party pads out there, it seems that it’s the OEM ones that tend to be the most revered. I suppose that’s because they’re usually the best made.

That tends not to apply to a select few manufacturers out there thorough. Quickly becoming one of those names is Power A. The company has been around for some time at this point, and has had a good history of producing some solid controller options. To that end, today’s announcements are looking pretty slick.

All together, there are two different controllers, one being made for all three of the big consoles. Just for the Xbox One though, is the FUSION Pro Wired Controller.

The FUSION is sporting all the bells and whistles, and even includes a case.

  • Mappable Pro Pack 
  • Three-way trigger locks 
  • ALPS analog thumbsticks 
  • Anti-friction rings 
  • Magnetic impulse triggers 
  • 3.5mm audio jack 
  • Dual rumble motors 
  • Injected rubber grips 
  • Custom protective case

As for the other announcement, that’s angled for the fighting game fans out there. It’s also for a wider audience, and will be available for the Xbox One, PS4, and Nintendo Switch.

  • Six-button arcade-style layout
  • Toggle switches for D-pad and shoulder buttons
  • R bumper can be assigned as C-stick for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate (Nintendo Switch Version only)
  • Floating D-pad design 
  • Three swappable magnetic faceplates

All of the above will be hitting stores soon, and are available for pre-order right now via GameStopBest BuyAmazon.com, and of course PowerA.com.
