NACON Introduces the Revolution 5 Unlimited Gaming Controller

NACON, a leading video game publisher and designer of premium gaming accessories, is pleased to announce the upcoming release of the Revolution 5 Unlimited (R5U), its new premium controller that is officially licensed for PS5 consoles. Building on the success of its Revolution range among competitive and professional players since 2016, the brand is reaching a new technological milestone today by unveiling its most advanced accessory yet for PlayStation 5 consoles and PC.

The Revolution 5 Unlimited is the culmination of years of research and continuous feedback from the esports community and the most demanding competitive players. This new high-end asymmetric controller, officially licensed for PlayStation 5 consoles, includes major hardware innovations.
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 1 ms latency and advanced features via the mobile app (such as mapping shortcut keys, configuring gyroscopic controls, etc.).
Yannick Allaert, Director of the Accessories Division at NACON"With the Revolution 5 Unlimited, NACON demonstrates its ability to set new standards in the competitive gaming peripherals segment. By combining a built-in control screen and TMR technology on an officially licensed PlayStation asymmetric controller, we are giving competitive and demanding players a state-of-the-art instrument, backed by years of expertise within the Group"
The Revolution 5 Unlimited (R5U) is available for pre-order starting today at a suggested retail price of €199.99 / $229.99 / £179.99 on nacongaming.com.

It comes in the XBOX layout.

The controller achieves a latency of 1 ms in wired PC mode, 2 ms in wireless PC mode, and 3 ms in console mode.
*PC compatibility has not been tested or confirmed by Sony Interactive Entertainment.

No information about the battery. Not that it matters. My 1.5V AA Li-Ion batteries (4300mWh) from Keeppower are the Duracell of a distant future.

The only problem I really have with controllers is their size. I prefer Sony controllers as they tend to be smaller, but I bought an Xbox controller last week because I got it on special, and it is a little smaller than the old one I had. I am not a controller guru, so not sure if the older ones were bigger or not -_-

Nowadays, people with large hands have a noticeable disadvantage. I can't even drive 50 laps in a row down the Grüne Holle without getting pain.
