Razer, a manufacturer of gaming equipment and accessories, has already produced gaming controllers for mobile phones, including the Kishi V2, but the appearance of these controllers, which were installed on the phone, differed from the design of conventional controllers for PCs and consoles, which are made to they were more comfortable to hold in the gamer’s hand.
Today, Razer announced a new mobile gaming controller that is ergonomically more similar to standard PC or console gamepads. It’s called the Kishi Ultra and will work with Android phones, iPhones, and even the iPad mini and other smaller Android tablets up to eight inches. It can even be used as a gaming controller for a PC if you connect it with a USB-C cable.
Razer says in a press release:
Featuring a first-of-its-kind full-size grip and button layout, the Kishi Ultra offers ergonomics and gameplay previously only found in Razer console controllers. This innovative design not only satisfies hardcore gamers on consoles and PCs, but also enhances the gaming experience on devices such as the iPad Mini, turning it into a formidable large-screen gaming handheld.
Razer claims the controller’s D-Pad and ABXY buttons have a “mecha-tactile” feel, along with full-sized trigger buttons and thumb sticks. The controller also has L4/R4 buttons that can be programmed for individual control settings.
In addition to its design, the Kishi Ultra includes support for Razer Sensa HD Haptics technology. The feature (currently only available on Android and Windows 11) offers “multi-sensory gaming immersion that’s stronger, more detailed and more nuanced than traditional console controller vibrations.”
Other features include Razer Chroma RGB lighting and support for the Razer Nexus app, which offers access to thousands of games compatible with the new controller.
The Kishi Ultra shows that mobile gaming has come a long way. It combines console-class ergonomics, precise controls, advanced haptics and seamless connectivity. Whether you’re a seasoned gamer looking for a top-notch mobile experience or an inquisitive newbie, the Kishi Ultra is ready to take your games on the go.
