Introduction

Ultra Arcade is a Brazilian company with a European subsidiary offering all kinds of fighting game controllers such as the Keyboard Pro XL, which has WASD keys on the left and arcade buttons on the right, but you can also have keys on the right or even go for a custom layout (like an inverted layout).

Performance

The keys with Cherry MX Red switches feel good with their smooth and linear actuation that is light. Other Cherry MX switch colors can be offered too.

The Sanwa buttons are responsive as usual with their optimal travel distance and snappy feel, but you can go for Samducksa buttons as well. You can even choose the brand of the side buttons. The corner feet get the job done and do not feel painful on the thighs.

The SOCD mode can be changed by way of hotkeys, so you can pick your mode of choice. You can also go for an optional OLED display.

This acrylic controller comes with a detachable USB-B cable. Furthermore, there are L3, R3, and touchpad buttons. The SOCD and DP/LS/RS switches only come with the GP2040 version.
