Wube Software has announced a Nintendo Switch 2 edition of Factorio. It is currently aiming to release the new edition in December 2025, and for those who own the original Switch version, it will be a free upgrade.
Alongside the release of Factorio on Switch 2, the “Space Age” DLC will launch for $35. According to Wube Software, the main features of Factorio – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition are as follows:
Better resolution. The game will run on the screen’s native 1080p resolution instead of 720p. When docked, it supports all resolutions, including 2160p (4K).
Variable refresh rate support for the console’s screen.
Some higher quality animations.
Some higher resolution sprites.
Other visual improvements.
Faster loading times.
Ability to build much larger bases.
Mouse mode support. Using the Joy-Con Mouse Sensor, the left or right Joy-Con can be used as a mouse.
Lastly, Factorio is available now on Nintendo Switch and PC via Steam, GOG, and Humble Store. The Steam page describes the game as follows:
Factorio is a game in which you build and maintain factories. You will be mining resources, researching technologies, building infrastructure, automating production and fighting enemies. In the beginning you will find yourself chopping trees, mining ores and crafting mechanical arms and transport belts by hand, but in short time you can become an industrial powerhouse, with huge solar fields, oil refining and cracking, manufacture and deployment of construction and logistic robots, all for your resource needs. However this heavy exploitation of the planet’s resources does not sit nicely with the locals, so you will have to be prepared to defend yourself and your machine empire.
Part 1 of the update adds the Mad Forest map from Vampire Survivors into Mythical Cocnept: STARNAUGHT. Part 2 will release in November and add the Inlaid Library and Dairy Plant areas. Check out the trailer showcasing the Mythical Concept: STARNAUT and Vampire Survivors collaboration below:

NOTE: The Razer Raiju V3 Pro controller for PlayStation 5 is currently unavailable for purchase in the United States as Razer awaits regulatory clearance for its release in the country.
Razer’s Raiju line has always targeted players who demand the most precise and responsive gear possible. The Raiju V3 Pro is the company’s boldest effort yet, stepping into the PlayStation 5 and PC arena as a controller that promises tournament-grade performance for those who take their gaming seriously. While its steep $219.99 price might raise eyebrows, this controller earns its keep through its tight engineering, TMR sticks, and deep customization that make every movement feel deliberate.
A True Evolution
From the moment you pick it up, the Raiju V3 Pro feels like a serious piece of hardware. The all-matte finish and sharp contours give it a professional aesthetic that looks right at home next to any console or PC setup. The textured grips feel durable and comfortable, staying cool during long sessions. Unlike earlier Raiju models that leaned heavily on style, this version focuses purely on performance. There are no RGB lights or ornamental trims here, just a clean design built for competitive intent. It is also surprisingly lightweight, which makes it ideal for long gaming sessions.
The TMR (Tunneling Magnetoresistance) thumbsticks are the controller’s most impressive feature. They are designed to resist drift and offer consistent tension, even after hundreds of hours of use. Movement feels remarkably stable. Every adjustment, every micro-aim feels smooth and exact. It’s one of those rare moments where you can feel the engineering at work in real time, and once you get used to it, other sticks start to feel loose and imprecise by comparison.
The face buttons use Razer’s mecha-tactile switches, which deliver crisp, clicky feedback that’s more like a high-end mouse than a traditional controller. Each press is sharp and satisfying, with zero squish. The D-pad takes on an 8-way floating design that works fine for most games, though it lacks some of the firmness you might expect from something in this price range. As someone who uses the d-pad exclusively for menu navigation, I felt a little let down by this. Still, it gets the job done.
Performance Tuned
The Raiju V3 Pro’s attention to performance extends far beyond the buttons. Razer’s HyperSpeed wireless connection runs at 2.4 GHz for near-instant input response. On PS5, it caps around 250 Hz, but when plugged in via USB-C on PC it can hit up to 500 Hz polling rate for those looking for the most precise inputs. Whether you’re dodging in a fighting game or aiming down sights in a shooter, there’s no noticeable delay. It’s immediate, smooth, and precise.
Six remappable buttons line the back and sides of the controller, including four rear paddles and two additional bumpers positioned for quick access. Each can be customized through Razer Synapse on PC or the Razer Controller App on mobile. You can adjust sensitivity curves, rebind buttons, and store up to four profiles on the controller itself. Switching between setups mid-game is instant, letting you shift from a racing configuration to a fighting layout with no downtime.
The triggers also feature adjustable pull lengths, allowing you to fine-tune travel distance for different genres. A shorter pull feels great for shooters, while a longer, more gradual pull helps with precision in driving games. Razer’s signature HyperTriggers, used on Razer’s Xbox controllers, offer the same high-end functionality and are equally effective in their use.
Refined, Not Reinvented
There are some clear trade-offs that come with the Raiju V3 Pro. Like all third-party PS5 controllers, it lacks Sony’s adaptive triggers and haptic feedback, which means you won’t get the nuanced sensations that make the DualSense stand out. It also doesn’t feature traditional rumble motors, so vibration-heavy games feel a bit muted. For competitive players, though, that may actually be a benefit. Fewer distractions mean more focus on control and precision.
Battery life averages around twenty to twenty-five hours, depending on your settings. Add on that the extremely quick charging, and the Raiju V3 Pro is one of the most efficient gaming controllers out there when it comes to its battery usage and quality. The included USB-C cable feels sturdy, and Razer even throws in a hard-shell carrying case along with swappable thumbstick caps and a small tool for removing the back buttons. It’s a complete package and shows Razer did not spare a single expense.
The Best of Both Worlds
The Razer Raiju V3 Pro isn’t trying to be flashy. It’s a controller built for people who value control above all else. Its magnet-based sticks, responsive buttons, and deep customization options make it one of the most technically impressive controllers you can get for PS5 and PC. The lack of adaptive triggers and haptics will turn off some players, and the price sits firmly in premium territory, but those who pick it up will know exactly where their money went.
Razer’s craftsmanship shines here. Every part of the Raiju V3 Pro feels tuned for speed, accuracy, and endurance. It doesn’t just perform well, it feels confident in its purpose. Whether you’re chasing leaderboards, practicing frame-perfect inputs, or simply want hardware that won’t get in your way, this is one controller that delivers on its promise.
