GameSir Spirit Fox Wireless controller, Digi Mart USA News: GameSir has released a wireless version of its Tegenaria Lite wired controller, which first launched globally for $19.99 and was previously released in China as the Spirit Fox. The original model has symmetrical thumbsticks similar to PlayStation controllers and is one of GameSir’s cheapest controllers.
The new Spirit Fox Wireless controller closely resembles its wired sibling, with symmetrical thumbsticks and identical button placement. Instead of Hall Effect sticks, it uses custom JS13 Pro TMR sticks, and it includes a 12-bit ADC chip and a 2,000Hz polling rate.
The triggers support dual-mode operation, offering either micro-switch or Hall Effect analog input.
The controller has a cross D-pad, but GameSir says users can attach a circular disc-shaped keycap to convert it to an 8-way D-pad. Other features include two back buttons, a six-axis gyroscope and a 1,000mAh battery.
It is compatible with PC, Steam, Nintendo Switch and Android devices.
Connectivity comes through a dongle that uses NearLink/Starflash wireless technology, and the controller also supports Bluetooth and USB-C wired connections. It is offered in two colours: a standard edition with an off-white front shell, green buttons and thumbsticks, and a translucent green back shell, and a Hatsune Miku edition in pink with blue thumbsticks and shoulder buttons, decorated with graffiti.
According to the source, the Spirit Fox Wireless controller is available to pre-order on JD.com and Tmall in China. The standard version is priced at CNY 199 (about $30/EUR 27), while the Hatsune Miku version costs CNY 299 (about $45/EUR 44).
The source expects the controller may later reach other markets as the Tegenaria Lite Wireless Controller, but did not say when that would happen.
