ALL THE BIGGEST STORIES FROM PLANET TECH

It wouldn’t be aRazer product without Chroma RGB lighting to match all the other bits in your gaming den, so the Kishi Ultra has a dynamic LED strip on either side.

This controller uses the same force feedback tech as Razer’s Project Esther gaming chair. So while it won’t shake your derriere, it should still add to your experience.

There’s also a USB-C port, so you can plug the Kishi Ultra into a PC and use it as a standard pad, with full support for Sensa HD Haptics in Windows 11.

Razer Kishi Ultra
It’s nearly 30 years since Nintendo introduced the Rumble Pak for the N64. As well as making certain members of Stuff’s editorial team feel very old, that little grey box can take the credit for making force feedback an indispensable part of gaming. It’s one that’s missing from most smartphone controllers… but not the Kishi Ultra.
This gadget uses Sensa HD Haptics to deliver high-fidelity vibrations that Razer reckons feel more precise and impactful than what you get from a console controller – although sadly not if you’re using an iPhone. That’s not because iOS devices won’t fit, though: any phone or tablet up to 8in in size can be clamped in as long as it’s got USB-C.
