Nacon is launching three new Xbox controllers with drift-free Hall effect joysticks and triggers. Starting at €39.90 (~US $46), the new Revo X wired gamepads undercut many pro-style controllers while offering features that have made GameSir and 8BitDo popular alternatives to Microsoft’s standard Xbox controller.
Overview and Availability
The controllers were first announced during the Nacon Connect 2026 event earlier this month and are compatible with both the Xbox Series X and Xbox One. Priced at €39.90, the Revo X is the cheapest model in the lineup.
Revo X
It offers drift-free joysticks and triggers, making it a compelling alternative to Microsoft’s standard Xbox controller. The gamepad keeps the familiar Xbox layout and adds four vibration motors for extra immersion. For PC gamers, it also supports a 1000 Hz polling rate with 1 ms latency. This model delivers the essentials with a budget-friendly price, while maintaining the core ergonomics that players expect.
Pro Features and Pricing
The Revo X Pro builds on the standard Revo X with several pro-focused upgrades. The biggest highlights are the trigger stops, which let gamers switch between full analog triggers for precise control and micro-switch triggers for faster inputs in FPS games. This model also adds two programmable rear buttons and a “Shooter Pro” mode that is said to remove joystick dead zones for quicker and more responsive aiming.
Revo X Pro
The Revo X Pro is priced at €49.90 (~US$58), putting it around the same price as Microsoft’s official Xbox wireless controller before discounts. It aims to appeal to players who want a more tactile input profile and customizable rear actions, while still staying within a reachable price tier for enthusiasts who crave more control options than the base model.
Max Model and What It Brings
The Revo X Max completes the lineup and adds one of the standout features of Microsoft’s $199.99 Xbox Elite Series 2 controller: adjustable stick tension. This allows gamers to fine-tune joystick resistance depending on the game, whether prioritizing quick movements or more precise control. The Max also upgrades the face buttons and D-pad to micro-switch switches for improved responsiveness.
Revo X Max
While it lacks replaceable joystick modules, the Revo X Max still looks like a compelling alternative to the much pricier Elite Series 2 at €69.90 (~US$81). The combination of adjustable tension and tactile micro-switch inputs aims to deliver a comparable feel at a fraction of the cost, appealing to players who value customization without a premium tier price.
