Engineered for Elite Performance
Asus aims to compete with the top-tier Xbox controllers, including Microsoft’s Elite II, by launching the Raikiri II. Cloaked in sleek black with an eye-catching RGB strip, the controller boasts advanced tunneling magnetoresistance (TMR) joysticks, providing enhanced drift resistance. The triggers and face buttons utilize micro switches, ensuring swift response times and lasting durability. This meticulous engineering makes the Raikiri II a formidable contender for pro-style gaming.
Seamless Connectivity Options
In the competitive world of gaming, connectivity is key, and Asus leaves no stone unturned with the Raikiri II. The controller boasts a 1000Hz polling rate, providing precision and accuracy in fast-paced shooters. Designed for low latency, it operates efficiently in both wired (USB-C) and 2.4GHz wireless modes. With Bluetooth connectivity, the device also ensures seamless transitions between an Xbox, PC, and ROG Ally. The Raikiri II’s battery life extends up to 50 hours, and it includes a charging hard case, making it a reliable companion for intense gaming sessions.
Accompanying the controller are a charging stand, a 2.4GHz wireless dongle, and interchangeable joystick caps, ensuring gamers have everything they need right out of the box.
