Getting yourself the right controller could take some time and it obviously doesn't help that there are so many options for them. More importantly, wouldn't it be cool if the design of your controller could somehow be altered to fit the mechanics of the games you play? After all, gaming with the best available gear could help you game better. So, if you don't mind splurging a good amount of cash on a gamepad, the Victrix Pro BFG could be your best friend.
PDP's Victrix Pro BFG is the first officially licensed "pro-style" modular controller for the PS5, and it's designed to be a high-performance, fully-customizable gamepad with excellent ergonomics and versatility. The interchangeable arrows and buttons, as well as the remappable rear triggers, ensure the perfect gaming layout of the controller. Not only that, but the Victrix Pro BFG is also fully compatible with PS4 and PC too.
Whether you're playing Street Fighter, FIFA, or Battlefield, this controller's customizability will allow you to have an edge over your competitor. The hex screwdriver that comes with the controller can be used to quickly and easily switch the input layouts and replace modules. The left joystick and D-pad, for instance, share a single module. Just pop it out and swap it with each other to transform the controller's layout from the standard PlayStation configuration to the Xbox's!
Besides that, if you're a fan of Tekken or Street Fighter, you can replace the right analogue stick with six microswitch buttons by inserting the Fight Pad module. This module replaces the four face buttons as well as R1 and R2 with six flat, big buttons. Additionally, the extra three D-pads (Victrix's diamond-shaped option, an Xbox-style eight-way d-pad, or a PlayStation-style d-pad) and extra stick caps allow you to swap to a convex shape or a tall "sniper stick" to suit the aesthetic of an arcade joystick.
The Victrix Pro BFG supports both wireless and wired functions, and PC users can adjust the buttons and equaliser settings with the Victrix Control Hub software, storing up to three user profiles for quick switching. In addition to full 3D audio compatibility when using a headset through the 3.5mm jack, the controller features four mappable back buttons, multi-position clutch triggers with five different stopping points, and more. As of now, the controller is only available for purchase through PDP's official online store with the price of $179.99, which is roughly equivalent to RM800.
