Edge Dual Sense may have taken its place as the default choice for a professional controller PlayStation 5 , but that doesn't mean there aren't plenty of other options offering slightly different features. Case in point is Razer's Wolverine V2 Pro, a wireless controller that has spare buttons along with an analog stick layout that may be more comfortable for some. I put it through its paces to see how it holds up. Razer Wolverine V2 Pro 9 Razer Wolverine V2 Pro Wireless Gaming Controller for PlayStation 5 It's a really solid pro controller with lots of extra and customizable buttons and a very different size and shape for those who want something more Xbox-looking on their PS5 or PC. supporter Perfect click buttons Trigger termination switches Easy to return project Available in black and white Passive design, replaceable rods Sony has long been a firm stickler for its controller design, with both analog sticks mirroring each other at the bottom in the center - but that doesn't mean everyone likes it. You only have to look at the iconic Xbox 360 controller with its unorthodox layout to see that other options can be advanced as well, giving Razer a decent market niche to explore. Razer Wolverine V2 Pro 6 Because of this, the Wolverine V2 Pro is positioned much closer to the Xbox controller, and also has a slightly more similar size and shape and feel in the hand than the DualSense and Edge. I found it really comfortable, the grip on the finish works well to keep it in hand.
However, one area where it doesn't match up to the DualSense Edge – or the Torture Reflex , which I used more often – is in the placement of the rear button. These are very central on the Wolverine V2 Pro, and with the size of the controller, sometimes you have to reach a bit to get them to work, which is not the case with the wider buttons offered by the Scuf and Sony controllers. Razer Wolverine V2 Pro 2 Razer compensates for this with another set of extra buttons with shoulder buttons, and those with large hands may have no problem, but I did notice that it was a bit more comfortable than I'm used to. Performance Repeatable buttons using the program Powering up the controller and hooking it up to the PS5 using the included dongles is nice and simple Country Email List and from there it's all about whether the Wolverine V2 Pro can really enhance a gaming session. It fares well overall, with all the bells and whistles you could hope for – those four back buttons and two extra shoulder buttons are all reprogrammable as you like, on a companion app that is fairly barebones but effective enough. Razer Wolverine V2 Pro 3 It includes the ability to trigger the deceleration of your sticks while holding down a button, for example, making it easier to aim accurately, and I can see this really helping to fine-tune your aim once you get used to it.
You can swap out the thumbstick tops for a convex option that comes in the box, in case that's useful, while you also get a very different D-pad on the Wolverine V2 Pro. It's an 8-direction clicky wonder and is miles, miles better than a four-direction pad for things like fighting games, making this a good pick if you're interested in starting on the path toward a full fight stick with, say, Muborizi Street 6 . Razer Wolverine V2 Pro 4 That click also extends to the face buttons, which are much more responsive than the standard DualSense, as well as the triggers, which can be switched between throttle and click options for instant action. This all adds up to a truly customizable, touch controller that can easily switch between wired and wireless modes depending on your needs, opening up new options and control schemes to give you the edge. Battery life and features 28 hour battery life The Wolverine V2 Pro has a very solid battery life of 28 hours or so on a charge, which means you don't have to worry about plugging it in after every session you use it for. Razer Wolverine V2 Pro 8 That's far better than the DualSense Edge or the Scuf Reflex, and is a big plus if you're leaning towards Razer's controller. Using the 2.4GHz wireless connection via the included device, I generally found the controller.
