Mark Julio has provided more updates, through multiple messages on Twitter, in regards to his company’s future plans. The community and sponsorship manager first revealed that Mad Catz is still working on a combat panel for the Tournament Edition 2 fight sticks. You can find his comment below:
@MG_JMIL @MadCatz we are still working on one

For the uninformed, the combat panel changes the position of the push buttons into more of a cross-shape designed instead of having them neatly placed close together. Mark Julio also commented on the potential of adding PS4 touch pad compatibility to the PlayStation version of the Mad Catz Arcade FightStick Tournament Edition 2. He confirmed that his company is going to make some “updates” in addition to working with developers on touch pad input alternatives to older sticks and requirements:
@Zenkunen @jchensor we will be making updates (also working with developers for alternatives to the older sticks/requirements).

In addition to the PS4/PS3, the Mad Catz Arcade FightStick Tournament Edition 2 was also released for the Xbox One and Xbox 360. If you are interested, you can purchase the arcade fighting stick on Amazon through this page.
Last but not least, the community and sponsorship manager teased that his company will have more in store aside from Rock Band 4 at this year’s Electronic Entertainment Expo:
.@MadCatz is going to rock the house at #E32015 this year. We’re mainly focusing on @RockBand 4 but have some other cool things in store. 😉

E3 2015 begins next week. So we don’t have to wait long to see what else Mad Catz is up to.
