PlayStation Reveals FlexStrike – Its First-Ever Wireless Fight Stick

This week PlayStation unveiled new details and images of its first official wireless fight stick, the FlexStrike, designed for both PlayStation 5 and PC gamers. Built from the ground up by Sony Interactive Entertainment, FlexStrike combines cutting-edge technology with player-first features to deliver a next-gen competitive fighting game experience.

 Launching in 2026, FlexStrike connects via PlayStation Link™, an ultra-low latency wireless technology, or through a traditional wired connection. Designed for portability, comfort, and precision, FlexStrike includes mechanical switch buttons, interchangeable restrictor gates (square, circle, octagon), built-in storage for components, and an included sling carry case.

 

Key Features:

• Simultaneous Device Connectivity – On PS5, connect the FlexStrike fight stick and a Pulse Elite headset or Pulse Explore earbuds using a single PS Link USB adapter.
  
  
  
• Dual Stick Compatibility – Use two FlexStrike sticks on one PS Link adapter for couch play or co-op.
  
  
  
• Customisation & Control – Includes DualSense controller inputs, touchpad, layout lock, directional switch, and adjustable controls.
  
  
  
• Premium Design – Ergonomic angled surface, non-slip base, high-quality digital stick, and built-in rechargeable battery.
  
  
  
• Console Wake-Up – A quick press of the PS button can wake a synced PS5 when the fight stick is connected.
