Global gaming and lifestyle brand Razer has launched the Raiju V3 Pro esports controller for the PlayStation 5.

The controller features Razer’s Pro HyperTriggers and removable back buttons for greater customisation options.

Unveiled on October 23rd, 2025, the controller includes ‘symmetrical TMR thumbsticks’ designed to deliver greater levels of tension and less stick drift during competitive play.

Razer’s HyperTriggers give players the ability to adjust trigger actuation points and responsiveness to optimise the controller for first-person shooter titles such as Call of Duty, Fortnite, and Apex Legends.

“The Raiju V3 Pro is a game-changer on the PS5,” said Los Angeles Thieves player Paco ‘HyDra‘ Rusiewiez. “The TMR thumbsticks are laser-precise and the customisation lets me fine-tune every input to match my playstyle.”

The launch of the Raiju V3 Pro follows a teaser from Razer and HyDra published on October 20th.

“We’ve worked very closely with our pro players when building the Raiju V3 Pro,” added Jeffrey Chau, Global Esports Director at Razer. “Every feature is designed for precision, speed, and control. It’s a controller built around what pro players need to perform at their peak.”

Razer’s Continued Growth

Throughout 2025, Razer has continued to expand its extensive range of peripherals. In July, it launched the DeathAdder V4 Pro mouse developed alongside Team Falcons Counter-Strike player Nikola ‘NiKo‘ Kovač.

Outside of product launches, the brand has become one of the first in the peripherals space to adopt the use of AI. In August, it launched its AI Centre of Excellence in Singapore to support the development of technology used in gaming and esports.

Gaming controllers remain an integral part of both console and PC esports. With the launch of Razer’s Raiju V3 Pro, players have a greater choice when choosing a controller that can improve in-game performance across various titles, thanks to its customisation options.

ESI Ranking System
We’ve created a ranking system to help you quickly know how good each gambling platform is. As gamblers ourselves, we know which factors matter most to you, so we follow a best-in-class methodology to test each one with no stone unturned. Once done, we then rank each platform based on the following tiers:
  • A-Tier High-quality sites that deliver a top experience every time. They boast strong performance, nice features, and reliable support, but are just shy of perfection.
  • B-Tier Solid platforms that are worth a spin. They’re safe, fun, and functional, but may be lacking advanced features or have minor drawbacks.
  • S-Tier Reserved for elite operators only. These go well beyond the norm with lucrative bonuses, rewarding promotions, lightning-fast payouts, and a flawless experience overall.
