GameSir launches Tarantula 8K PC, Tarantula Pro for Xbox and two limited-edition G7 Pro 8K PC controllers

GameSir, a leading global gaming controller brand, is raising the bar for competitive gaming in Australia with the launch of four new high-performance controllers.

The new range brings GameSir’s latest controller technology to Australian gamers, including the Tarantula 8K PC, Tarantula Pro for Xbox, G7 Pro 8K PC – Champion Edition and G7 Pro 8K PC – Royal2 Edition.

Built for players who demand speed, precision and customisation, the new controllers combine GameSir’s Mag-Res™ TMR stick technology, ultra-high polling rates and advanced trigger systems with designs inspired by the world of competitive gaming.

Tarantula 8K PC – Be Competitive. Be Pro

Designed specifically for competitive PC gamers, the GameSir Tarantula 8K PC strips away unnecessary weight and features to focus on what matters most: precision and responsiveness.

The wired controller features Gen-2 GameSir Mag-Res™ TMR sticks, an 8000Hz polling rate and a response time of just 0.5ms. A built-in 6-axis gyroscope provides additional motion-control capability, while nine programmable buttons give players extensive options for mapping controls and macros.

At just 180g, the Tarantula 8K PC achieves its lightweight design by removing the battery and vibration motors, creating a controller purpose-built for competitive play.

Players can customise button mapping, stick curves, trigger response and other settings through GameSir Connect software. The Tarantula 8K PC is available now for an RRP of $139.95.

Tarantula Pro for Xbox – Pro Performance Comes to Console

For Xbox gamers, the GameSir Tarantula Pro for Xbox brings the Tarantula’s symmetrical layout and pro-grade technology to Microsoft’s console platform.

Featuring GameSir Mag-Res™ TMR sticks, the Tarantula Pro is designed to deliver precise, reliable control while its four rumble motors provide immersive feedback through the grips and triggers.

Players can also map nine programmable buttons using GameSir Nexus on Xbox and PC, while custom profiles allow users to fine-tune their sticks, triggers and vibration settings for different games.

The result is a controller designed for players who want competitive-level customisation without sacrificing the immersive experience of console gaming. The Tarantula Pro for Xbox is available now for an RRP of $159.95.

G7 Pro 8K PC – Champion Edition – Wireless Esports Controller for PC

The G7 Pro 8K PC – Champion Edition brings championship pedigree to GameSir’s high-performance PC controller range.

Inspired by XiaoHai, GameSir’s global brand ambassador and world fighting game champion, the Champion Edition features a distinctive black-and-gold design, complemented by a charging station featuring the 2024 and 2025 Esports World Cup trophy icons and XiaoHai’s signature.

Underneath the exclusive design is a serious competitive controller. The G7 Pro 8K PC supports an 8000Hz polling rate over both wired and 2.4G wireless connections, GameSir Mag-Res™ Gen-2 TMR sticks, dual-mode trigger stops and four rumble motors.

A three-piece magnetic faceplate allows further customisation, while four programmable macro buttons provide additional control options for competitive players. The G7 Pro 8K PC – Champion Edition is available now for an RRP of $179.95.

G7 Pro 8K PC – Royal2 Edition – Wireless Esports Controller for PC

Joining the Champion Edition is the G7 Pro 8K PC – Royal2 Edition, created in collaboration with legendary Halo competitor Royal2.

Featuring a distinctive black finish with a stardust galaxy pattern, the Royal2 Edition is complemented by a black charging station featuring a golden crown logo, while Royal2’s signature is applied in hot gold to the right grip.

Like the Champion Edition, the Royal2 Edition delivers 8000Hz polling over both wired and 2.4G wireless connections, Gen-2 Mag-Res™ TMR sticks and dual-mode trigger stops. Four programmable macro buttons, a three-piece magnetic faceplate and GameSir Connect software give competitive players extensive control over their setup. The G7 Pro 8K PC – Royal2 Edition is available now for an RRP of $179.95 at JB Hi-Fi.

The new GameSir products are available in Australia through selected retailers including JB Hi-Fi, The Gamesmen, Scorptec and Mwave.
