Nacon is a French peripheral manufacturer that specialises in gaming controllers and accessories. The company has developed a new premium controller for PlayStation 5 called the Revolution 5 Unlimited, which features a built-in screen for adjusting settings during gameplay.
A key innovation is its audio mixing capability: when you connect wireless headphones to the controller, it can blend sound from your PS5 game with audio from your phone, such as music or messages. This allows players to listen to both streams simultaneously without needing separate devices.
The controller also offers extensive customisation options, including adjustable trigger travel, interchangeable thumbstick and D-pad heads, and programmable shortcut buttons. Beyond PlayStation 5, it works with PCs and Android devices, with a companion app for iOS and Android providing additional controls for audio settings and lighting.
