These controllers promise to deliver a top-tier gaming experience, offering a blend of cutting-edge technology, comfort, and precision.
OVERPOWERED Series models
OPS v3 Pro wireless controller: The ultimate pro-style controller
At the forefront of the new OVERPOWERED Series line is the OPS v3 Pro Wireless Controller. Designed for gamers who demand professional-grade performance, this controller is packed with advanced features. It includes tactile mechanical switches on the D-pad, ABXY, and shoulder buttons, ensuring every input feels crisp and responsive. The inclusion of Hall Effect sensors in the triggers and thumbsticks enhances precision, making it easier to outmanoeuvre opponents.
One of the most exciting features of the OPS v3 Pro is its Quick-Twist adjustable height thumbstick technology. This allows gamers to adjust the height of their thumbsticks without needing extra tools, offering a personalized touch to their gameplay. The controller also comes with six mappable Advanced Gaming Buttons and 3-way trigger locks, allowing for extensive customization to suit individual playstyles.
To add a dash of flair, the OPS v3 Pro features Multi-zone RGB lighting through PowerA’s Lumectra technology. This provides gamers with the ability to customize the lighting to match their gaming setup or mood.
Connectivity is another strong point of the OPS v3 Pro. Gamers can connect via low-latency 2.4GHz wireless, Bluetooth, or a reliable wired connection using the included 10ft braided USB cable. The controller boasts a 1200mAh rechargeable battery that offers up to 30 hours of continuous gameplay. Additionally, a convenient charging stand ensures that the controller is always ready for action.
