Is it Legal to Use Modded Controllers? – Aim FAQ Series

Are you wondering, are modded controllers illegal? Can you use a custom Xbox Series X controller during an official gaming competition? Or would Twitch block you if you play a custom PS5 controller on a stream?

While this subject may seem quite obvious on the surface, in reality, gamers have many doubts. That’s why today we decided to dispel them! Let’s find out if you can expect legal consequences for playing on a custom Xbox Series X controller!

What are the AimControllers’ controllers?

Before answering whether your custom PS5 controller is legitimate, it’s worth considering what you are actually buying from AimControllers. The answer to this question should clear up your initial doubts.

Let’s consider, is a custom Xbox Series X controller by AimControllers a brand-new technology that allows you to cheat in games? Would you find cheats such as Rapid Fire or auto-targeting? Unfortunately, we have to sadden anyone who was hoping that our controllers would enable them to win without any skills. Unfortunately, it’s not that easy. The introduction of Rapid Fire technology changed the way gamers viewed controllers. This type of hardware aims to reduce the pressure on the user’s finger by automatically pressing and releasing the fire button to perform a shooting action, and while this concept proved to be a hit with the masses and Rapid Fire controllers were soon in huge demand on the market, it is this type of hardware that you can get banned for. Modded controllers are designed to provide users with options that can help improve their gameplay, but not completely change the rules of the game.

All AimControllers controllers are based on Sony and Microsoft technology. We only use officially licensed Sony & Microsoft controller software as a base. As gamers ourselves, we ensure the quality of parts and construction are always top-notch! There is no magic facilitation or technology involved. However, this does not mean that they do not stand out from the competition. Quite the contrary. Here’s what will make you excited about your custom PS5 controller or the one for Xbox:

Additional features

Any custom PS5 controller or Xbox One can be equipped with additional features such as Smart Triggers and Smart Bumpers, which are great for shooter games, and AimGrip, which is ideal for prolonged gameplay. The AimControllers are nothing more than enhanced Sony or Microsoft hardware. Improved, however, does not mean not having to put in the time and effort while playing.

Visual personalization

Besides having additional functionalities, AimControllers allows you to discover your artistic potential. You have hundreds of designs, finishes and colours to choose from on our website, but you can also create your own Xbox Series X controller that best reflects your personality and style. While looks aren’t the most important thing, I think any gamer can agree that you’ll enjoy playing on fancy hardware that relates to your favourite game or style even more than regular gadgets, no matter how many extra features they have.

Are AimControllers controllers legal?

Well, let’s tackle this question and answer it once and for all so that there is no doubt. In the eyes of the law, there is quite a difference between modifying the functionality of the controller with hacking the game code.

When you buy a custom Xbox Series X controller from AimControllers you are not accessing any hacking technology, only enhancements to existing technology, so it is as legal as possible and in line with the code of conduct.

The custom PS5 controller helps you do things that would be difficult to do manually, but it won’t do them for you – you can’t alter the fire rate of fully automatic weapons, and you’re adding the extra capability of faster response times. Therefore, it is completely legal to use them.

Can you get banned from PSN, lose your Xbox Game Pass, or be disqualified from competition for using a custom controller by AimControllers?

You cannot be banned from PSN, lose your Xbox Game Pass, or be disqualified from competition just for using a modded and custom PS5 controller. Just look at what professional gamers and streamers are using our controllers. Our partners include e-sports stars such as Fortnite player BROCKPLAYSFORTNITE, Brooklyn streamer RASTA LA VISTAH, YouTuber RODEYBROS, e-sports organization TEAM DELINQUENTS, or well-known Italian e-sports player SAVYULTRAS90. Let these partnerships be the best confirmation of the legitimacy and quality of our controllers.

 

We hope we have dispelled your doubts! If so, don’t wait, create your own PS5 controller today and enjoy professional quality hardware appreciated by e-sports celebrities!
