In order to improve the gaming experience on xCloud, Microsoft's cloud gaming service for Xbox, Nacon launched a set of controllers that are specifically geared towards the platform.
The two controllers boast wireless designs and feature rechargeable batteries, which provide up to 20 hours of play. What makes the devices especially unique is the split-handset design, enabling the controllers to stretch up to 6.7 inches across so that they can wrap around all different sizes of smartphones and provide a more immersive experience.
Nacon's xCloud gaming controllers are set to release online in early 2021, and will be available for purchase from its web store, along with a number of other gaming accessories for next-gen consoles.
