CORSAIR Announces Novablade Pro: A Hall Effect Wireless Controller Built for Fighting Games
Corsair has entered the fighting game controller market with the Novablade Pro, a device designed to stand out by eliminating the traditional joystick. Instead, it features Corsair MGX Hyperdrive magnetic switches, Rapid Trigger, and FlashTap SOCD technology.
“With gamers demanding faster, more responsive inputs, building a controller that utilizes our fastest, most responsive switches was an obvious play,” said Tobias Brinkmann, Vice President and General Manager of Gaming Peripherals. “The Novablade Pro is a leap in input innovation, fusing MGX Hyperdrive magnetic switches with cutting-edge performance features like Rapid Trigger and FlashTap. For both fighting game professionals and aspiring players aiming for the top, chasing precise timing windows that last mere milliseconds are key – and Novablade Pro has the features they need for their pursuit of reliable frame perfection.”
Designed for Competitive Players
The Corsair Novablade Pro was created for demanding players who need the fastest response times possible. Its magnetic switches, Rapid Trigger system, and FlashTap technology are all aimed at delivering precision and speed — ideal for those who compete at a professional level.
Where the Novablade Pro truly stands out is in its absence of a joystick. Instead, it uses 15 magnetic buttons that reset quickly, helping players shave off crucial milliseconds in competitive play. Corsair also highlights its compact design, premium build quality, and low-latency wireless connectivity via 2.4GHz and Bluetooth.
The Corsair Novablade Pro will be available soon for PS5 and PS4, with the price yet to be announced.
