About Customcontrollers

Written by the company

Welcome to Custom Controllers, the leading manufacturer for customised gaming controllers, including Xbox One, Xbox Series S/X, Xbox Elite, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5 and Nintendo controllers. Our specially trained team customise controllers by hand and we offer up to 550 different designs over our website. Custom Controllers UK is renowned for having the biggest range of designs worldwide.

Custom Controllers established in November 2007 offering repair and modification services. Shortly after, the customer base grew online which allowed development of a website to offer a selection of customised controllers. As customer base continued to grow so did the product range Custom Controllers had to offer. After the very first collaboration which was with the sportswear giant ‘Nike’, Custom Controllers rocketed ahead in its own market moving forward to create hundreds of new designs to release to its fan base it had developed. This attracted Games developer ‘Konami’ which formed another collaboration for Custom Controllers. The collaboration was for Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain. Due to its huge success on release day Konami returned to Custom Controllers to Collaborate on another game ‘Pro Evolution Soccer 16’, The controller was provided to major press outlets, PES ambassadors and Gaming Celebrities during the release of PES 16 in September 2015. This controller has yet to hit the website for sale to the general public so if you have one of these controllers then consider yourself lucky to be chosen by Konami. After the success of both collaborations Custom Controllers had already earned the reputation of the “go-to-guys for custom controllers.

As standard, we include 12-month warranties with all controllers that we offer. So, whether you want an Xbox controller, or a PlayStation controller, it will be completely covered by our mechanical warranty.

I recently left a 5 star review

I recently left a 5 star review, the quality of the controller was in fact really good and the delivery was speedy, however once my son opened this on Christmas Day and went to use this, it was infafe faulty with extreme stick drift and is unable to use this. I have sent an email and expect this to be replaced. Shocking for the amount of money it costs.

Hi Cam, thank you for your review. I can see we confirmed the weight of the parcel when the delivery left us showing that the parcel contained the controller. From the packaging pictures you have sent us along with the proof of delivery from Royal Mail, the package has not been tampered with or re-sealed by the courier. Kind regards, Tim
