This is what the SCUF Omega looks like. In addition to buttons similar to those on the DualSense controller included with the PlayStation 5, it has several additional custom buttons.



The controller features five unique buttons called 'G keys' on the front. You can assign your preferred functions to the buttons on either end, while the three in the center are optimized for wired headset operations such as volume control and microphone mute.



The controller features four customizable back paddles. Each paddle can be assigned any controller function, and these assignments can be saved as custom profiles. Up to three custom profiles can be saved and switched between instantly.



Furthermore, it also features customizable buttons on the grip.



The analog sticks are highly durable TMR thumbsticks that utilize non-contact magnetic sensors. Compared to conventional mechanisms, they have less physical contact, which reduces the occurrence of 'drift,' a phenomenon where the game controller's stick moves unintentionally.



In addition to wired USB Type-C connectivity, it also supports Bluetooth and 2.4GHz wireless communication. It also features a switch to toggle between PS5 mode and PC mode.



The functions of each button can be freely customized using the dedicated app.



Customization options such as 'adjusting the response curve of triggers and analog sticks,' 'calibrating analog sticks,' and 'selecting the analog stick response shape from 'circular,' 'square,' and 'squircle'' are also available, allowing you to fine-tune the control feel to your liking.



The suggested retail price for the SCUF Omega is 37,980 yen (including tax).
