Razer has announced its Wolverine V2 Pro PS5 controller, which features a host of advanced customization features. It’s the company’s first-ever officially licensed gamepad made for the latest Sony console and features asymmetrical thumbsticks from the iconic in-line ones of the last 28 years.

However, the price has been revealed; it will retail for $250 USD / €299.99 / £249.99/ $475.95 AU, making it one of the pricier options to hit the shelves.

The company’s Hyperspeed wireless has been present in everything from Razer’s best wireless gaming headsets to the best wireless gaming keyboards.
