Corsair launches its first fighting game controller – the Novablade Pro Wireless

CORSAIR has officially unveiled its first controller designed specifically for fighting games, the Novablade Pro Wireless Hall Effect Leverless Controller. Built with the company’s new MGX Hyperdrive magnetic switches, the device introduces features aimed at delivering faster, more precise inputs for competitive players.

The Novablade Pro features 15 adjustable magnetic keys with actuation points ranging from 0.1mm to 4mm, allowing players to fine-tune responsiveness to their preference. Rapid Trigger technology resets keys instantly, shaving fractions of a second off every input, while the switches are rated for up to 150 million presses to ensure long-term durability.

CORSAIR’s FlashTap SOCD system provides tournament-compliant directional input handling, and a dedicated Game Mode disables non-essential functions to prevent accidental disqualification during competition.

Designed with portability in mind, the Novablade Pro uses a compact all-button layout and includes tri-mode connectivity, offering wired USB-C, low-latency 2.4GHz wireless, and Bluetooth options. Customisation is another focus, with a 360° RGB LightEdge, individually lit keys, and a removable aluminum top plate. Players can also program eight G-keys and store up to five profiles directly on the controller. Compatibility extends across PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, and PC, making it versatile for both console and PC fighting game communities.

The Novablade Pro is available now through the CORSAIR Webstore and will roll out soon to authorised retailers worldwide. Pricing is set at €349.99 in the EU.

KitGuru Says: It is an expensive controller for sure, but it may also be the nicest looking Fight controller that I've seen.
