Razer last week unveiled the Razer Wildcat, a US$150 (S$212) Xbox One controller.
The green-and-black controller has four more buttons than the regular Xbox controller and they can be mapped to any function. It is 25 per cent lighter than the regular controller and has optional trigger stops to allow gamers to input multiple presses faster.
It also has a 3.5mm audio port, microphone input and optional rubber palm grips and stick grips, and comes with a 3m-long micro USB cable and carrying case.
The Razer Wildcat will be available from the company's website from next month.

This is part of Google's AdWords Express advertising programme, which lets users see sponsored results linked to certain keywords.
The service is available only in San Francisco for now and there is no word yet on when it will go global.
