NACON is going big into the sim-racing scene, officially unveiling three brand-new Revosim steering wheel bundles designed for both PC and console players.
And for Xbox and PlayStation racers especially, there’s one major detail that stands out. Yep, for the first time, the Revosim ecosystem is heading to consoles.
Announced as part of an expanded racing simulation strategy, the new range introduces three different Direct Drive bundles aimed at everything from newcomers taking their first steps into sim racing, right through to players chasing a more premium setup.
The reveal includes the RS Pure, RS Initiale and RS Lite, with all three packages combining a wheel base, steering wheel and pedal set into complete racing bundles.

Revosim Finally Reaches Console Players
Up until now, Revosim products have focused on the PC market, but this latest announcement marks a pretty major shift for NACON.
The headline addition is the RS Pure, a premium 10NM Direct Drive bundle built specifically with console compatibility in mind. It represents NACON’s first serious move into the high-end console sim-racing space, and it could put the company into direct competition with some well-established names. We’ve used wheels from Thrustmaster, Turtle Beach and MOZA previously, so it’ll be interesting to see where the RS wheels sit.
Alongside that sits the RS Initiale, offering a 6NM setup intended to strike a balance between performance and affordability, while the RS Lite lowers the barrier even further with a 3.2NM Direct Drive system aimed at entry-level users.
Sim racing has exploded in popularity over the past few years, but Direct Drive setups still often sit at intimidating price points for many players. NACON appears keen to cover every level of the market here rather than focusing purely on enthusiasts.
Building On The Existing RS PURE Setup
The new console-compatible RS Pure also builds on technology already seen in NACON’s current PC-only RS PURE Complete Kit.
That existing setup features a 9NM Direct Drive base capable of delivering highly detailed force feedback, alongside a 30cm steering wheel wrapped in perforated synthetic leather and a metal pedal set using a 100kg Load Cell brake sensor.
The system also includes extras like Bluetooth telemetry support, allowing players to use a smartphone as a racing dashboard, plus quick-release wheel swapping for easier customisation.
While NACON hasn’t yet confirmed whether every one of those features carries directly into the new console-compatible versions, it does give a strong indication of the sort of premium sim experience the company is aiming for.
A Growing Fight In Sim Racing
This feels like a smart moment for NACON to expand into the console market too. Racing games remain hugely popular across console, and we’ve just seen the launch of Forza Horizon 6 to confirm that statement.
For now, NACON is keeping some of the finer details under wraps. Full technical specifications, release dates and pricing information for all three new Revosim bundles are expected to arrive at a later date. We’ll keep you looped, but for console racers who have been waiting to see Revosim hardware move beyond PC, this announcement alone is likely to grab attention.
