About us

TryHard Controller® has been around since 2019. We customize controllers for anyone looking to get more out of their gameplay. This includes tournament players and people who take their ranking seriously, but just as much those who play a few rounds after work and simply don't want to fight against their hardware while doing so.

Anyone who plays a lot knows those moments where it’s not your skill holding you back, but the device: the thumb that has to leave the stick, the trigger that takes a fraction of a second too long, the stick that starts drifting after a few months. Whether that costs you a match in ranked or just annoys you in the evening – in both cases, it can be changed.

How a controller is made

Behind TryHard Controller® is a small team in Germany. No warehouse full of ready-made goods, no outsourced support: the same people who build the controllers also answer your emails.

No controller sits on our shelves finished. Every device is only created after you place your order. We open an original DualSense, install the modifications you have chosen, reassemble it, and then test it by hand – every button, every stick, every trigger checked once before it is packed. This is more time-consuming than grabbing one off a shelf, but it ensures that you receive the controller in the exact combination you selected, rather than the one that happened to be in stock.

Performance, not cheating

We only change what has an impact in-game: trigger travel, stick precision, button accessibility, durability. Anything that looks good but does nothing, we leave out. Details on what exactly is installed can be found under Technology & Features.

No rapid fire, no aimbot. There is no function that aims, shoots, or repeats button presses on its own. We exclusively modify hardware – every input continues to come from you. A TryHard Controller doesn’t play for you; it gets the hardware out of your way. What you do with that remains your business.

Warranty and support

Every controller comes with a 12-month warranty. If something isn't right, just get in touch – we will find a solution. We answer inquiries ourselves and usually within 48 hours; all ways to reach us can be found under Contact.
