Check Out this Thrustmaster ESWAP X2 Controller Inspiired by Elden Ring

Designed for Xbox and PC, the Controller is an Elden Ring Fan's Collector Dream Come True!

Just in time for Shadow of the Erdtree, the first (and apparently only) expansion for Elden Ring, peripheral mainstay Thrustmaster has revealed the ESWAP X2 Pro Controller Elden Ring Edition -- officially licensed and built specifically for the Xbox and PC platforms. The controller is a celebration of one of the most celebrated Souls-likes of all time and for players happy to play with third-party peripherals, the perfect accompaniment to any sojourn through the Land of Shadow.

Check out a fairly teaser-ish trailer for the controller:



Here's some official info on what to expect with this sexy bit of gear.

YOU WILL NEVER KNOW DEFEAT

Don't let the darkness engulf your soul.
Forged in the mystical depths of the Lands Between,
ESWAP X2 ELDEN RING special edition

Arise, Tarnished: grab your gamepad
and set out to conquer the Lands Between!

According the press release we received, the controller will feature a modular swap design that lets you lay everything out as you prefer utilising so-called "Hot-Swap" technology. All buttons on the controller are also mechanical, featuring top-end responsiveness with an "activation distance reduced to just 0.01" / 0.3 mm".

In addition, two S5 NXG mini-sticks allow for precision control, according to Thrustmaster, in keeping with the theme of these types of games from a timing and input perspective when battling precision-centric enemies and bosses.

You'll also have the ability to remap specific functions to four buttons on the back of the controller, allowing you to have quick access to items, weapons and more -- all based on how you prefer to play. And finally, utilising the ThrustmasterX software, sensitivty levels of most aspects of the controller are completely maleable allowing you to craft a near PC-like setup.

More importantly for fans though, it just looks ultra-cool. You can grab the ESWAP X2 Pro Controller Elden Ring Edition from August 16 in Australia for an RRP of $349.95 dollarydoos.
