The Victrix Pro BFG is a revolutionary modular controller designed for optimal customization and performance. Users can easily adjust the controller’s layout, thanks to an included tool that allows for quick removal and repositioning of faceplates. The Pro BFG supports both aligned analog sticks, akin to PlayStation design, and an offset layout reminiscent of Xbox controllers. It comes equipped with four thumbstick caps, various stick grates, and three distinct D-pad styles, including traditional eight-way and four-way options.
For those who enjoy fighting games, the Pro BFG offers a unique feature where the right analog stick and face buttons can be replaced with a six-button microswitch fight pad, enhancing gameplay versatility. Additionally, a Tekken 8 Edition of the Pro BFG was recently released, adding to its appeal.
The controller boasts four back triggers that can be remapped instantly, along with adjustable trigger locks for R2 and L2 buttons, accommodating five different stopping points. Users can save up to three custom profiles, allowing for seamless transitions between settings during gameplay.
Input remapping can be accomplished via the Victrix Control Hub, although it is only accessible on PC. Despite this limitation, configurations save directly to the controller, enabling users to adjust stick and trigger sensitivity, establish analog stick dead zones, and personalize the audio profile through a built-in audio feature. The Pro BFG provides comprehensive control over headset audio, with connectivity through a 3.5mm jack located at the bottom of the controller.
It connects wirelessly to PS5, PS4, and PC using a 2.4GHz USB dongle, or users can opt for a robust wired connection using the included braided USB to USB-C cable. The Pro BFG’s accessories are conveniently stored in a hardshell carrying case designed for portability.
Notably, the Pro BFG offers impressive battery life, providing nearly 20 hours of gameplay on a full charge—significantly surpassing the performance of standard DualSense controllers. For gamers seeking a PlayStation controller with the ergonomic advantages of an Xbox controller, the Victrix Pro BFG stands out as the premier choice for third-party PS5 controllers.
