HyperX has announced two new products: the Clutch Talon controller and the Cloud Stinger 3 headset. The Clutch Talon is a wireless controller with Hall effect joysticks and triggers. The Cloud Stinger 3 comes in wired and wireless versions.
The Clutch Talon controller features a 1000mAh battery that lasts up to 30 hours. It supports both 2.4GHz and Bluetooth connectivity and charges via USB-C. The Cloud Stinger 3 headset uses 50mm drivers with a frequency response of 10Hz to 50kHz. The wireless model offers up to 80 hours of battery life and takes about 4 hours to fully charge.
Hall effect joysticks and triggers enhance precision
The Clutch Talon controller is priced at $160 and will be available in summer 2025. The wired Cloud Stinger 3 costs $50, while the wireless version costs $100. Both headset models are available now in black and white.
HyperX claims the Hall effect joysticks and triggers on the Clutch Talon provide more precise and durable input than standard Xbox controllers. The Cloud Stinger 3 wireless headset offers long battery life for extended gaming sessions.
