REVOLUTION 5 PRO: NEW UPDATE FOR SHOOTER GAMES PLAYERS
With Shooter Pro Mode, NACON is optimising the Revolution 5 Pro controller to boost player performance.
Lesquin (France), 17 June 2024 – The Revolution 5 Pro controller, available since November, has been enthusiastically received by players all over the world. With thousands of units already sold thanks to its unique design and features that give players a competitive advantage, it has become the most successful NACON accessory launched to date.
In line with its goal of continually improving the Revolution 5 Pro and to meet the needs of FPS players, NACON has updated the controller’s customization software with a new gaming option: Shooter Pro Mode. Once enabled, this new feature completely removes the stick deadzone, improving player responsiveness, precision, and performance for games in the FPS genre. This adds to the controller's existing features, which give users a vital edge in games: • Sensitivity + mode: for faster reaction times in a variety of in-game situations by increasing the stick amplitude • Magnetic Hall effect on the sticks: for maximum controller durability and highly reduced risk of drift • Ultra-fast wireless connectivity + wired mode: includes a 2.4 GHz USB dongle, prevents lag, and provides PS5®/PS4®/PC* compatibility.
Many players have already embraced the new feature, including French streamer Wisethug, a keyboard-and-mouse gamer who has set himself the challenge of playing Apex Legends using just the Revolution 5 Pro throughout April.
"I love using my Revolution 5 Pro," the streamer stated. "When I took on the challenge of playing for an entire month using a controller, this was the one that seemed best suited to my playing style. Shooter Pro Mode genuinely gives me an impressive degree of control."
How to update your controller to the most recent version: 1. Set the wireless/wired button on the controller to wired mode 2. Set the platform selection button to PS5 or PS4 3. Select A for Advanced on the back of the controller 4. Connect the controller to your PC via the included USB-C cable 5. Launch the Revolution 5 Pro app and select "Update" to install the latest version.
The Revolution 5 Pro is available in shops and on NACON Gaming for the price of €229.90.
