The Hori Fighting Commander 4 Controller for the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 3 has been released in the United States region. If you are interested in the third-party gamepad, which has been officially licensed by Sony Computer Entertainment America, you can purchase it with this page on Amazon.
The Fighting Commander 4 is designed with 2D fighting games in mind as it removes the left and right analog sticks in addition to having six face buttons (with R1 and R2 being moved to the same area as the Circle, X, Square and Triangle buttons). The wired pad is built with a asymmetrical shape for better handling. An improved rubber membrane was also used to increase accuracy and durability.
The other features includes a rotatable D-pad with sensitivity settings as well as turbo functionality and the ability to toggle R/L.
The PlayStation 4 has already gotten a few high-quality fighting games with Guilty Gear Xrd Sign and Mortal Kombat X. The console will also be getting Ultra Street Fighter IV, Street Fighter V and most likely Tekken 7 in the future as well. If you are looking for a dedicated fighting pad to play these fighters, you might want to check out the newly-available Hori Fighting Commander 4 Controller.
