Razer is introducing a Signature Edition of its Raiju V3 Pro PS5 controller, but you will need to move quickly if you wish to acquire one. Razer has only 1,337 pieces of this gamepad in a limited, individually numbered release, and there’s no assurance it will be restocked after the initial inventory is sold out.
Brace yourself for the pricing, because if you believe the standard fee of $200/£200 is steep for an officially sanctioned PS5 pro controller, this will sting. Holding onto something? Alright. The Signature Edition of the Raiju V3 Pro will cost you $349.99 / £349.99, and will be accessible exclusively from Razer on November 10.

As pricey as it may seem, it’s difficult not to admire the aesthetics of the device, to be fair. It features an exoskeleton design, reminiscent of some ultra-light gaming mice that attempt to minimize weight by utilizing a honeycomb structure. Additionally, it arrives in an upscale leatherette carrying case that will accommodate all of the Raiju’s standard attachments and extras.
The semi-transparent touchpad consists of glass with laser engraving, the body is constructed from magnesium alloy, the handles are sheathed in TPU, and the buttons have been crafted using a double-shot PBT method which is expected to prolong their lifespan and enhance resistance to oil accumulation.
