Pre-orders now open
GameSir has released a special edition of its G7 Pro controller based on the Yakuza & Like A Dragon games, according to Notebookcheck. It is officially called the G7 Pro Yakuza & Like A Dragon Edition and costs $99.99.
The controller can be pre-ordered now on GameSir's website. It is set to begin shipping in December, four months after the company first teased the design in July.
Between the teaser and the launch, the controller was shown at the Tokyo Game Show in September. GameSir had not previously given a release date or a price.
Dragon-inspired design
The faceplate carries a dragon motif in silver and crimson. The thumbsticks and buttons use the same two colours, so the theme runs across the whole pad.
Other details continue the look. The triggers are translucent red, the grips on the back are textured crimson, and the charging dock is crimson with the Tojo Clan logo on the front.
Xbox wireless certification
The controller is certified for Xbox consoles and carries the Xbox spherical logo on the home button. According to Notebookcheck, it connects to Xbox consoles wirelessly, which sets it apart from the G7 Pro Sunset BLVD and Ocean Breeze models that only support wired mode on Xbox.
It also differs from the G7 Pro 8K PC Phantom Blade Zero Edition, which is not Xbox-certified. Beyond Xbox, the Yakuza edition works with PC and Android as well.
Features and hardware
The pad uses TMR thumbsticks, a type of stick sensor known for precision and low power draw. It has dual-mode triggers with a mode switch, two back buttons labelled R4 and L4, and two extra bumper buttons called R5 and L5.
A six-axis gyroscope is included, but Notebookcheck reports it works on PC only. Vibration motors sit in the grips and the triggers, and the battery is rated at 1,200mAh. Owners can adjust settings through the GameSir Nexus software.
What comes in the box
The package includes the charging dock, a wireless receiver and a braided Type-C cable. GameSir also adds two spare D-pads so players can swap the shape of the directional pad.
A voucher card for one month of Xbox Game Pass is included as well. At $99.99, the edition is priced in line with the Phantom Blade Zero version of the G7 Pro, per Notebookcheck.
