Arriving in time for the peak gaming season, the ULT PRO is the most feature-rich controller the team at CRKD have ever produced. Crafted with thought and feedback from the professional gaming community, the precision engineering and raft of genuinely useful technology used in the ULT PRO defies its competitive pricing and proves ideal for those looking to take their gaming skills to the next level.
One controller, multiple devices, the ULT PRO is fully compatible with Nintendo® Switch™ 2 | 1, PC, mobile devices, tablets and Smart TVs, offering gamers impressive connectivity options depending on the platform they are using. Out of the box, the ULT PRO can utilise 2.4GHz wireless via the included dongle, Bluetooth®, and USB-C wired play. For competitive gamers playing on PC in wired mode, PC mode on both the Switch and PC versions of the ULT PRO, support a 1000Hz polling rate, delivering ultra-responsive input times with minimal latency, ideal for tournament level play.
The list of dizzying features included with the ULT PRO continues with TMR Thumbsticks (Tunnelling Magnetoresistance), a new-generation magnetic sensor technology, designed to eliminate Stick Drift, and provide superior precision compared to traditional mechanical Thumbsticks or Hall Effect sensors.
The new trigger toggle system instantly switches between a short, tactile bump or a longer-travel trigger feel, depending on their individual preference. Each trigger can be adjusted independently, allowing a different configuration of left and right triggers should gamers wish. With each trigger utilizing Hall Effect sensors, players can fine-tune actuation sensitivity, giving even greater control over response speed. When playing on Nintendo Switch, the triggers function as digital inputs, while on PC they operate as analog triggers, providing enhanced precision and flexibility across platforms.
The CRKD design and engineering team have looked at every aspect of the ULT PRO to better understand what features gamers would actively find useful. Adjustable rumble with a wide dynamic frequency range changes the game in regard to tactile feedback, and players can enable ‘No Deadzone Mode’ for enhanced stick precision. Turbo function features for rapid fire games and a dedicated platform slider allows users to quickly switch between connected devices with a mere simple flick.
The ULT PRO includes an integrated rechargeable battery, and comes bundled with a sleek charging dock, charging cable, and high-speed wireless dongle. The included dock makes it easy to charge and display the controller between sessions, while players also have the flexibility to power the controller using standard AA batteries if preferred. Users can also purchase an additional rechargeable battery pack separately, and the charging dock features a hidden compartment designed to charge a secondary battery, allowing for hot swapping during intence gaming sessions.
The ULT PRO includes six additional remappable inputs, adjustable trigger travel, swappable components, and advanced configuration through the CRKD Companion App. Players can remap any button on the controller either in-game or through the CRKD Companion App, with four rear back buttons and two additional shoulder-zone buttons providing extra programmable inputs. In addition, the ULT PRO features dual four-way toggle buttons, offering quick access to system functions.
Further customization is made possible through profile presets stored directly on the ULT PRO, allowing gamers to quickly switch between different control configurations depending on the game they’re playing. Presets can be created and managed directly on the controller or configured through the CRKD Companion App, affording complete control over their controller setup. Players can also fine-tune the feel and appearance of their controller with swappable stick tops and swappable D-pads sold separately.
Like all CRKD controllers, players can further customize their controller experience through the CRKD Companion App, which allows for button remapping, trigger configuration, stick sensitivity adjustments, input presets, firmware updates, and more. The app also allows owners to register their ULT PRO as part of the True Collection System, adding it to their personal collection of CRKD hardware with a unique product number and rarity rank.
