ATLANTA, GA, May 30th, 2024 – SCUF Gaming (Nasdaq: CRSR) is excited to announce the release of its newest product, the SCUF Nomad, a Bluetooth controller designed specifically for mobile gaming. Engineered to be compatible with iPhone® devices, the SCUF Nomad incorporates the high-performance features and ergonomic design that SCUF is renowned for, now optimized for mobile use.
Drawing from years of experience in crafting top-tier controllers for console and PC gamers, SCUF has created the Nomad to offer a superior mobile gaming experience in a portable form factor. “The Nomad’s contoured grips and full-size triggers are directly inspired by our innovative paddle controllers, reimagined for mobile,” said Jake Tenorio, Director of Product Marketing at SCUF Gaming. “Comfort is often overlooked in mobile controllers, impacting both performance and playtime. Our design philosophy prioritizes ergonomics, which players will notice the moment they pick up the Nomad.”
The SCUF Nomad features full-sized thumbsticks for precise accuracy and control, utilizing anti-drift Hall effect technology for sustained performance. The strategic placement of these thumbsticks, along with two rear paddles—a patented SCUF innovation—enhances speed, control, and reduces hand strain. This design allows gamers to use thumbsticks and paddles simultaneously, providing a competitive edge similar to professional-level play on all platforms.
Complementing the SCUF Nomad is a free iOS companion app, which does not require a subscription. This app allows users to access and play popular games like CoD: Mobile, Roblox, and NBA 2K, launch games from the App Store and Remote Play apps, and create customizable controller profiles. Users can adjust trigger sensitivity, thumbstick responsiveness, and remap buttons, assigning profiles to specific games and sharing them with friends. The app also simplifies capturing and sharing gameplay highlights, making it easy to showcase your skills.
“As gaming continues to evolve, SCUF is dedicated to providing innovative solutions that enhance gamers’ performance and enjoyment across all platforms,” Tenorio added. “Mobile gaming represents a new frontier for SCUF, with the industry increasingly converging across mobile, console, and PC platforms. The SCUF Nomad, priced at $99 MSRP, opens up the SCUF experience to a broader audience. We’re thrilled to bring our expertise to mobile gaming.”
Pricing, Compatibility, and Availability:
The SCUF Nomad is available for preorder online starting May 30, 2024, at $99.99, with availability in select retailers this summer. The controller is compatible with iOS 16+ and initially launches in black, with additional colors and customization options to follow.
