It's 2025, and Sony PlayStation has finally created its own wireless fight stick for PS5 and PC.
Edwin Foo, VP of Product Development at Sony Interactive Entertainment, said the stick—internally codenamed Project Defiant—will give players "more flexibility to play their favorite fighting games."
Sony promises ultra-low latency over wireless connections on PS5 or PC, along with the option to use a wired connection. This is crucial for fighting game enthusiasts who demand pinpoint precision and instant response for their combos.
The stick features an ergonomic design, a custom-built high-quality digital stick, and toolless interchangeable restrictor gates, letting players switch between square, circle, or octagon layouts—all of which can be stored in the controller’s built-in compartment when not in use. It also includes a convenient sling carry case.
What we still don’t know is the price or exact release date—Sony has only confirmed a 2026 window.Sony’s fight stick arrives at a perfect moment, as it’s also developing Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls, a new 4v4 Marvel fighting game from Arc System Works, the creators of Guilty Gear. That game is also slated for 2026, suggesting the stick and game may launch together.
Sony kicked off the summer reveal season with a strong showing, unveiling a wide array of new games to build excitement ahead of Summer Games Fest Week. Here's everything announced at PlayStation State of Play 2025 last night, including 007 First Light, Final Fantasy Tactics: The Ivalice Chronicles, Romeo is a Dead Man, and Silent Hill f's release date.
