The ASUS ROG Raikiri II Xbox Wireless Controller is designed for PC and Xbox gamers who want tournament-grade responsiveness without sacrificing versatility. It combines TMR joysticks, micro-switch buttons across every input, and a 1000Hz polling rate in PC mode to reduce latency at every point of contact. Tri-mode connectivity, four rear buttons, and dual-mode triggers give competitive players the flexibility to adapt their setup to any game or platform.
Why This Product
-
1000Hz polling rate on PC
— When connected via wired USB-C or 2.4GHz wireless on PC, it reports inputs at 1000 times per second, reducing the gap between action and on-screen response. Xbox consoles run at 250Hz.
-
TMR joysticks resist drift
— Tunneling Magnetoresistance sensors replace the resistive contacts that wear and drift over time, offering more accurate readings while consuming less power than Hall Effect alternatives.
-
Dual-mode triggers for every playstyle
— Each trigger switches between a micro-switch mode with short travel for rapid fire and a full-travel TMR sensor mode for analog control — without tools or disassembly.
-
Micro-switches on every button
— The D-pad, ABXY buttons, bumpers, and four rear buttons all use micro-switches for instant actuation and tactile feedback, matching the feel of the face buttons throughout.
-
Up to 50 hours per charge
— Battery life reaches 50 hours on 2.4GHz wireless with RGB, audio, and vibration disabled. The included charging stand and protective case let it charge and store at the same time.
-
Tri-mode wireless connectivity
— It connects via 2.4GHz RF (enhanced by ROG SpeedNova technology), Bluetooth, or wired USB-C, and is Xbox Series X|S certified for use on console as well as PC and ROG Xbox Ally.

Best For / Trade-offs
Best for:
-
PC competitive players
who need the lowest possible input latency — 1000Hz polling via wired or 2.4GHz wireless cuts the reporting interval to 1ms.
-
Multi-platform households
that switch between Xbox Series X|S, PC, and ROG Xbox Ally — tri-mode connectivity means one controller covers all three.
-
Gamers who remap controls
— four rear buttons and dual-mode triggers expand the available inputs without third-party accessories.
-
Long session players
who want to go wireless without stopping to recharge — up to 50 hours on a single charge reduces interruptions.
-
Users who value included accessories
— the package contains a portable protective case, charging stand, stand holder set, and two extra high-profile thumbstick caps.
Trade-offs:
-
PlayStation users
— it is Xbox-certified and Windows-compatible only; PlayStation consoles are not listed as compatible platforms.
-
Bluetooth-first wireless users
— Bluetooth requires a driver download and does not support the 1000Hz polling rate available over 2.4GHz or wired USB-C.
-
Weight-sensitive buyers
— at 345g including the cable it is heavier than many standard controllers, which may matter during extended handheld-style play.
-
Buyers who need Xbox polling above 250Hz
— the 1000Hz rate is a PC-only feature; the controller reports at 250Hz when connected to Xbox consoles.
