SteelSeries the leading manufacturer of premium-quality, competitive
gaming peripherals today, introduced the SteelSeries Ion Wireless
Controller. Through a licensing partnership with Zeemote Technology
Inc., the SteelSeries Ion is designed to work fully with your PC,
additionally the controller brings classic control schemes to touch
screen devices like tablets and phones.
The compact controller connects wirelessly through Bluetooth and can be
easily customized and configured through its own application on the
device.
"For PC users, the SteelSeries Ion is a convenient alternative,
especially if they want something other than their mouse or keyboard as
their tool. And for consumers with tablets and Smartphones, it really is
an ideal accessory," said Bruce Hawver, SteelSeries CEO. "Whether
you're sling shooting birds or playing a word game with friends, there
are games that are ideal for touch screen. Those types of games however,
are not the only games available; there are a number of first-person
shooter and RTS games that aren't downloaded or played as frequently as
they could be, because the touch screen doesn't provide an optimal
experience. The SteelSeries Ion provides the advantage for those types
of games."
Measuring only about the size of a standard deck of cards (approximately
108 mm in length, 55.5 mm in width and 18 mm thick); the lightweight
controller can be easily stored and carried. It connects through
Bluetooth to your PC and/or your mobile device and includes a white LED
light on the controller indicating a connection. The SteelSeries Ion
includes a rechargeable, lithium battery that will provide up to 20
hours of wireless use and can be plugged into your device for charge and
play use.
The SteelSeries Ion boasts a classic controller design that includes 2
mini-joysticks, a left side Dpad button, 2 trigger buttons one at each
shoulder, and a four button layout on the right, similar to familiar
Nintendo, Xbox 360 and PlayStation controllers. The buttons can be
customized through an easy-to-use interface for both PC and mobile
devices.
The SteelSeries Ion Wireless Controller will be available in Q3; pricing will be announced closer to its availability.
