Bring a little bit of superhero to your mobile gaming with these Marvel gaming controllers from GameSir

A few months back at Readwrite Gaming we took a look at the G8 Plus Galleo mobile controller and thought it was really rather good.

Whether you were looking for a controller to sot your iPhone or Android mobile into or even a new way to play your Nintendo Switch, the G8 Plus slides wide enough to accept them all, connects seamlessly via Bluetooth, and provides a really slick alternatively to messing around with those on-screen virtual joypads that mobiles games always come equipped with.

But maybe you wanted something a little less in the way of a piece of black plastic? Well if that’s the case GameSir has you covered as it has now released the G8 Plus in two new Limited Editions in a tie-in with Marvel and its superhero universe.

Officially licensed by Marvel, these limited edition controllers feature iconic colors and Infinity Stone-themed buttons and arrive in the style of a Hulk and a Thanos edition, all colored and designed appropriately to bring our your inner rage.

The official line for the G8 Plus Galileo states that they are “Compatible across Switch, tablets, iOS, Android, and PC, the G8 Plus Galileo offers versatility with GameSir Hall Effect sticks for anti-drift performance, toggleable triggers, and ergonomic grips for console-level comfort. It fits devices 110-215mm in length and includes a 6-axis gyroscope for enhanced control and gaming immersion.”

In fact the Hall Effect joysticks were one of our favorite parts of the original design and now they are shrouded in the Hulk’s iconic green and purple, and Thanos’ regal purple and gold they are somehow even cooler.

You can check out the full details on the Limited Editions of G8 Plus Galileo on GameSir’s website, and be sure to check out our review of the original model to see how highly we rated it where we concluded, “It’s a round of applause from me for one of the best examples of this kind of device we have seen so far.”

Now, if you are a fan of Marvel too, what’s stopping you?
