"Football Thumbsticks: Danny Aarons Edition" is a special model born from a collaboration with popular creator Danny Aarons, with the concept of "5-STAR (Achieve 5-star performance)." By optimizing stick height, it expands the range of motion and supports more precise control during shots and dribbles. Furthermore, it adopts proprietary GripTekTM non-slip material and an ergonomic design, achieving comfortable operability and stable grip even during long play sessions. It supports the split-second plays that decide matches and leads to a higher level of gaming experience.

Additionally, a new "Frozen" color is added to the FPS game thumbstick "Inferno," which has been guiding players to victory for 10 years, and will be offered as "Performance Thumbsticks: Frozen Inferno."
