In case you missed the news, Call of Duty Warzone mobile is launching next year! And if you’re anything like me, that means you’re probably a big fan and are looking forward to finally being able to play a Call of Duty built for mobile devices. However, despite the excitement, I bet a majority of you aren’t so big on those touchscreen controls. Lucky for you, Turtle Beach just so coincidentally happened to have announced its newest gaming peripheral, the Recon Cloud Hybrid Controller.

Turtle Beach is looking to dip their toes into the mobile gaming space, as their latest endeavor, the Recon Cloud Hybrid controller brings the best of Turtle Beach, as well as the ease of console gaming, to mobile gamers!

“The response to our first wave of console and PC gaming controllers has been overwhelmingly positive, and now we’re further expanding our reach in this market to give mobile gamers the same uncompromised, award-winning controls,” said Juergen Stark, Chairman and CEO, Turtle Beach Corporation. “The Recon Cloud is the first of our expanded lineup of mobile controllers launching this year, with additional new products designed for iOS and other consoles coming soon.”

The new controller stems from the Recon line, which was introduced just last year and received high praise from the critics (our review here,) as well as the public. The Recon Cloud Hybrid Controller aims to bring that same level of quality to the mobile audience, plus some with some stapled Turtle Beach technology.
