Razer Wolverine V3 Xbox, PC Wired Gaming Controller - Black

Broken on Xbox

This controller is an up and comer in competitive circles but BUYER BEWARE. Most competitive players play on high-spec gaming PCs. If you play on an Xbox like me (Xbox Series X to be precise), AVOID THIS CONTROLLER. It simply does not work. I've tried the controller in two FPS games: Halo Infinite and BF6. In Halo, the custom paddles were somehow mapped to multiple inputs which should be impossible - my character would simultaneously jump and pinpoint a location marker at the same time when I just had the paddle mapped to location markers. In BF6, my character would randomly walk backwards at times and it would stick like that for a couple of seconds no matter what direction I held the joystick in. None of these issues occur on my Microsoft Elite Series 2 controller. It is most likely down to buggy firmware for the controller, however no updated firmware exists at this point. You also have to download a separate app by Razer on the Xbox to configure the controller, and this app is very buggy. For example, it can take a while for it to detect your connected controller, and on the main screen you cannot see which menu item is selected as the selection highlight is missing so you're operating the menu blindly. I will be returning this controller to Argos. It's a shame because if these bugs did not exist, if Razer treated console players as first class citizens like PC players, it would be an amazing controller with the mechanical switches and hall effect joysticks.

Quality Controller

This came in quality packaging and the controller itself has a premium, well built feel. It feels really nice in the hand and the buttons are tactile and precise. It responds really well and fits neatly into the hands with the claw and hyper buttons sitting exactly where you need them. The handles are the perfect size for me, but may feel a bit on the small side for some. In terms of looks, performance and handling it’s a significant upgrade from standard.

Great controller and functionality but bulky

Great controller, buttons and sticks are smooth, extra buttons help with pc controls offering options for quick switching in games. And with some games such as arena breakout requiring multiple key presses to perform actions, the extra buttons keep it smooth and easy to play. Only downside is the size making it feel bulky with a plain look. A premium controller you would expect for aesthetics, for this reason I personally could only offer 4 stars.

Controller for a gamer

The wolverine v3 tournament controller is designed for xbox or your pc. I have been using this for my xbox series x and testing it on several games. The first thing you notice when you hold the controller is just how well it feels to hold and with the inclusion of the 4 paddles on the back they are just in the perfect postion for your fingers or atleast for me anyway. There is also 2 extra buttons next to your LB and RB buttons but i dont feel there of use to me. You can also lock your triggers so there shorter to press which helps for first person Shooters especially. The button configuration for the 6 programmable buttons are very easy with the touch of a button, the app on the other hand takes abit of getting used to but once you figure it out it gives you a whole amount of extra options to choose from. I feel this controller is a far smarter choice to choose especially over the offical xbox controller as it feels a better quality controller and the components also seem superior ie triggers, buttons and analogue sticks.

Good but takes a little getting used to

On the whole this is a good controller but it does take a little getting used to. It’s very easy to set up and change what you would like the buttons to do, the feel of the controller is an incredible build for your hands. You can accidentally press the paddle but once you are used to the controller it becomes second nature.

Better than a standard controller

Arrived well packaged. Much better for gaming than a standard controller with the addition of buttons on the underside which makes it comfortable to hold for any length of time and is lightweight. Although its wired, it comes with a ten foot lead so will reach across most rooms, the connections feel very secure so it will withstand some moving about while playing. My son said the slight texture of the hand holds makes it very comfortable to use

All in all a great controller

The Razer Wolverine V3 Pro is an excellent controller. It performs and responds amazingly well. The hyper triggers and the back claw buttons are brilliant features. Handles could be a little bit longer for comfort but all in all it is a great controller

Great features

This is a great controller to use on the xbox , its a little bulky but very lightweight and very comfortable. One thing i foound was i kept pushing the buttons on the back accidentally.If you dont like change from original xbox controller then it may take a while to get used to it, however it will be worth it. Great features from the controller include mouse click back paddles , sounds so satisfying, they are really comfortable when holding the controller and easy to use . You can lock and unlock the LT RT triggers which is amazing in certain games . remappable back buttons and top mid bumpers that you can change directly from the controller or an app. The app is amazing and alows you to customize the buttons as well as on the console . The cable is long which is also a plus. Setting up the controller was very simple. Love that it is compatable with PC also.
