Thrustmaster announced the upcoming release of three new accessories designed for those players looking to optimize their race sim set ups and expand their gaming experience.
Taking advantage of the latest in e-WRC, Thrustmaster is expanding its ecosystem to provide the ultimate experience for players in search of perfection with the release of the ‘TM Racing Clamp’ on August 20th and the ‘TSS Handbrake Sparco Mod +’ and ‘TM Sim Hub’ on September 20th.
- TSS Handbrake Sparco Mod +
You asked for a handbrake that’s playable with console games* and now here it is: the TSS Handbrake Sparco Mod +. This new device is PC-compatible with every racing wheel on the market and the major “+”, and new feature of this TSS handbrake, is its console compatibility:
- For PS4™* with the T-GT and T300-Series Thrustmaster racing wheels
- For Xbox One* with the TS-XW RACER and TX-Series Thrustmaster racing wheels
This has only been made possible through the development of a proprietary cable needed to enable communication with console.
This new product will also take advantage of the previous model’s features, including of course Thrustmaster H.E.A.R.T. technology and high-quality aluminum materials.
Through a collaboration between Thrustmaster and Sparco, there are now two modes available providing the best possible level of control during even the most intense races:
- Progressive handbrake mode
- Sequential transmission mode
