Asus has unveiled the Raikiri Pro, an officially licensed controller from Xbox Y OLED screen, although there is no release date or price yet. The peripheral comes shortly after Microsoft patented a controller with an LCD screen, which would probably have a function similar to that of the device of Asus.
But until Microsoft don’t release your own version of the screen controller to consumers, gamers will have at least a couple more options.
ASUS launches controller for Xbox with OLED screen and official license
People have been creating custom game controls for decades, which has been made easy by Microsoft’s Xbox Design Lab. Some of these fan-created controllers include screens, but the best known might be Hyperkin’s Xbox Duke controller that came out in 2018, whose giant circular logo served as the perfect location for an animated screen.
Until now, however, other manufacturers had not jumped on the bandwagon of screens for controls.
CES 2023 officially kicked off on January 5, but companies started revealing their new products and technologies a few days before. Asus introduced the ROG Raikiri Pro, a controller with a OLED screen of 1.3 inches that has the official license of Xboxmainly for use on PC.
The tiny screen has a 128 x 40 resolution, and its main purpose is to check battery or microphone status, pair via Bluetooth, and swap game profiles. But the screen can also be set to display custom animations, wallpapers, or text.
