Hal Effect sticks are a must. I’m looking for a controller because my PS4 controller has some pretty horrible stick drift. I don’t want a repeat of that.

PlayStation layout is also a must. Never understood the appeal of the wonky xbox layout.

Must also ship to Europe. Preferably a company from Europe. But outside of Europe also works if shipping and customs don’t add twice the controller’s cost to the price.

I’m asking this in Linux Gaming, so obviously must work with Linux (though so far I’ve had less issues getting controllers to work on my Linux desktop than I’ve had with Windows).

    I have the Retrofighters BattlerGC Pro, this is the Playstation layout equivalent:

    Hall effect sticks, Bluetooth support, 2.4ghz dongle, excellent buttons. The BattlerGC Pro is the best controller I’ve ever owned. If this Playstation style controller is even close to as good you won’t be disappointed.

    Edit: they also have this mini controller, and this one is currently available, whereas that more deluxe one is a pre-order shipping in January.

      Shipping in 2026… oof. ^^;

      I’m not sure about the mini controller. Looks like it might get very irritating to use after a short time.
