De tidlige 2020'ere var en slags mørk tid, hvis du var fan af Rock Band. PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X owners didn’t get an improved, more feature-packed guitar controller until early 2024 when PDP launched the Riffmaster. While it launched for $129.99 and later rose to $149.99, you can now grab it for $99.99 at Amazon, Walmart, and Best Buy in the run-up to Amazon’s Big Spring Sale. The current deal price (which has only happened once before) applies to both the Xbox and PlayStation versions, as well as the newer Nintendo Switch and Switch 2 versions.
PDP Riffmaster
PDP's Riffmaster er et trådløst guitartilbehør, der er kompatibelt med Rock Band 4 og Fortnite Festival. It has two sets of color-coded buttons you can press to hit notes as they appear on the screen, a built-in 3.5mm audio jack for connecting headphones, and an analog stick to help you easily navigate through each game’s menus.Where to Buy:
- $149.99 $99.99 at Amazon (PlayStation 5)
- $149.99 $99 at Amazon (Xbox Series X / S)
- $149.99 $99.99 at Amazon (Nintendo Switch)
While Rock Band 4 was delisted last October, making the game (and its many downloadable songs) impossible to buy on consoles, the Riffmaster is compatible with Fortnite Festival, which, like the rest of Epic’s online multiplayer game, is a free-to-play experience. Additionally, the Xbox version of the Riffmaster boasts Windows PC compatibility, making it the one to get if you want to play community-built games like Clone Hero.
As far as components go, the Riffmaster makes it easier to navigate system and game menus with its built-in analog stick, which is located behind the fret buttons at the top of the collapsible neck. Den trådløse controller har et genopladeligt batteri, der også oplades via USB-C, og PDP hævder, at det kan holde i op til 36 timer pr. Den har også et 3,5 mm hovedtelefonstik, hvis du foretrækker at lytte til dit spillyd privat.
