There are not many annual events that I pay attention to, and one of them is the Gamescom. Is one of the world's largest trade fairs for video games, held in Cologne, Germany. It serves as a major platform for game developers, publishers, and hardware manufacturers to showcase their latest products, announcements, and innovations. Gamescom typically features a variety of events, including game demos, esports tournaments, and panel discussions, making it a key event in the gaming industry calendar. Separating game news from new devices for gamers, I stumbled upon the first cool thing - ATOM™ Collectible Keychain Controller

CRKD, the premium collectible gaming brand known for the award-winning Nitro™ Deck, NEO S™, and Nitro Deck+ controllers, has announced this new ATOM™ Collectible Keychain Controller. You might have come across this name before with Turtle Beach's phone controller series, but this one stands out as a collectible keychain.

The ATOM™ is impressively small yet fully functional, making it the ideal travel companion for gamers. It’s ready for action across various gaming platforms. With a wrist strap for secure play on the go, it can also attach to keychains, lanyards, and backpacks. However you choose to use it, ATOM™ is always ready to play.

Gamers can express themselves with ATOM™, available in eight unique colors: Sky Blue, CRKD Grey, Leaf Green, PAL Grey, Hot Pink, Yuzu Yellow, Glacier Blue, or Atomic Purple. Choose the one that resonates with you, or collect them all for a stylish gaming experience.

Featuring wireless Bluetooth® technology, ATOM™ easily connects to Nintendo® Switch™, PC, Mac, as well as mobile devices, tablets, and Smart TVs. It boasts impressive features including a ten-hour rechargeable battery for long flights and a micro USB-C to USB-A adapter for quick charging. The controller includes four shoulder buttons for compatibility with various games and works with the CRKD True Collection System. This free mobile app lets users tap their smart device to the controller to see their product number, and rarity rank, and add their ATOM™ to their collection. The app also includes CRKD Shop & CRKD TV, a hub for all CRKD-related content.

Jack Guinchard, Global Brand Manager of CRKD, commented, “At CRKD, we’re committed to creating gaming gear that enhances both the gaming and collectible experience, allowing gamers to stand out with products that are enjoyable to use and collect. We believe ATOM is the ultimate expression of our mission, being a surprisingly usable wireless controller that will definitely catch attention when gaming on the go. With eye-catching colors and a robust feature set for multiple platforms, we think ATOM is the perfect summer and holiday accessory for discerning gamers.”

The ATOM™ is available for purchase at $19.99, and shipping will start between August 29 and September 5, 2024. To buy your ATOM™, visit: https://go.crkd.gg/atom.
