New Programmable Joystick

The new joystick* design featured on the ROG Chakram X lets you offload keyboard commands to your right hand, and can be used in analog or digital mode to suit your play style. This larger joystick has a concave shape and is repositioned closer to the palm for better reach and control.

  • ANALOG MODE

  • DIGITAL MODE

  • CUSTOMIZABLE

  • Analog mode simulates a real analog joystick or gamepad thumbstick, making it possible to roam the gaming worlds with one hand. Climb, dive or run with the slightest movement of your thumb.

  • Digital mode turns the joystick into a button with four programmable directions, so it’s perfect for commands to reload, switch weapons, tilt, talk, summon a map, scroll web pages or to set almost any other action.

  • Both a long and a short joystick are included to accommodate different hand shapes and play styles. For times when the stick isn’t needed, simply remove it and fit the included socket cover for a flush finish.
