Gaming accessory makers Turtle Beach and Performance Designed Products today kicked off pre-orders for the RIFFMASTER wireless guitar ($129.99 MSRP)
Scheduled to launch in April, the RIFFMASTER is the first guitar controller designed for a new game in nearly a decade, designed to fill the musical void in Rhythm-action gamers' hearts.
"At last, the wait is over...it's time for gamers to rock on!" said Michael Lai, Senior Director of Product Marketing, Performance Designed Products "Rhythm-action gaming is experiencing more than a renaissance - it is being redefined! Every aspect of the RIFFMASTER design is informed by PDP's rich heritage in rhythm-based gaming, including a nod to the past with backwards compatibility. We cannot wait for fans to have their first jam session!"
PDP will launch two RIFFMASTER wireless guitar designs, saluting those who rock exclusively on Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PC, as well as those who rock exclusively on PS5â„¢ and PS4â„¢. The RIFFMASTER wireless controller is officially licensed for Xbox and PlayStation.
