Satisfye Gaming has made a name for itself with its impressive Zen Grips for the Nintendo Switch and Switch Lite that have taken the handheld experience of the console to the next level. For Satisfye’s newest offering, the company is looking to bring ergonomics up a notch for more than just Nintendo Systems with the introduction of its RYZE pads. With 3 different types of thumbstick caps available for Switch, PlayStation 4/5, and Xbox Satisfye is offering something for everyone.
First up are the swivel pads, a thumbstick cap that rotates with your thumb to increase comfort and performance during gameplay. The Swivel pads are even rated by US Ergonomics “with proven reduced force and improved comfort.”
Next are the Notch pads that have two district thumb zones. The traditional middle position and a new side position. The goal for this type of cap is to keep your thumb locked in place and give you precise control of the action while reducing fatigue!
Last in the RYZE line-up is the Wave pads. These pads are a mixture of convex and concave design allowing for great control across any of its surfaces! It also is very reminiscent of the thumbstick found on an OG Xbox Duke controller which is very pleasing to me! Each of the three cap options fit securely to your preferred controller and will come in 2 height varieties to provide the most options for gamers.
The RYZE pads from Satisfye are currently in their last week of funding over on Kickstarter with ~$3000 to go to reach its funding goal. For a $39 pledge, you can choose a set of RYZE caps for your preferred console of choice with bonus funding options available if you want multiple sets. If RYZE turns out anything like the Zen Grips, they should prove to be quite a game-changer for a number of gamers out there! Check out the Kickstarter page to learn more.
