Sony is designing its own fight stick.

Revealed last night (June 4) at PlayStation’s State of Play showcase, Sony confirmed the “ultra-low latency” wireless stick, known internally as Project Defiant, is expected to be available in 2026. No price point has been set for the peripheral.

“Project Defiant features a high-quality digital stick that’s custom-designed by Sony Interactive Entertainment,” explained VP for product development, Edwin Foo.

“The controller features toolless interchangeable restrictor gates (square, circle, and octagon) for the stick, buttons with mechanical switches, and a touch pad like the one found on the DualSense wireless controller. It’s built in a sturdy, ergonomic design for a comfortable feel during intense fight sessions.

“For convenience and portability, the controller has a storage compartment for restrictor gates and PS Link USB adapter. Project Defiant also supports the ability to wirelessly wake up your PS5 by pressing and holding the PS button.”

The controller’s final name and launch date are expected “in the months ahead.”
