3dRudder: the Intuitive VR Motion Controller…
The 3dRudder was designed to provide a more natural motion experience in VR games. The foot-powered controller grants players free locomotion in compatible games from the comfort of their couch, including smooth rotation and the ability to orbit around an object, with accuracy and speed control.
Transferring motion controls to the feet frees up the hands to focus on actions, making it possible to intuitively move and interact at the same time.

…and the Ultimate Immersion Enhancer

With its foot-powered controls and 360° locomotion system, the 3dRudder provides a whole new gaming experience on PS VR.

SAIRENTO VR
In this fast-paced Ninja-FPS new to PS VR, the 3dRudder provides players with a smooth, seamless motion experience, making them quick and agile to fight enemies.
Aldric Chang, Co-Founder, Mixed Realms:
“Playing Sairento with the 3dRudder is a bit like being the Green Goblin with swords and guns. It provides a different kind of gameplay overall”
IMMORTAL LEGACY: THE JADE CIPHER
Locomotion is a key component of this shooting adventure game developed by Viva Games and published by Sony Interactive Entertainment Europe. The 3dRudder lets players enjoy this feature with surprising ease, and keep their hands focused on holding the flashlight, launching grenades, and much more.
Kun Yao, CEO and Producer, Viva Games:
“Because our gameplay is based on life-like motion, it’s great to dissociate locomotion from gesture: players can focus on shooting and puzzle solving. The 3dRudder brings the game an exclusive, new experience ”.
SPACE JUNKIES
In the latest patch of their multi-player space shooter, Ubisoft added support for both the 3dRudder and the PlayStation®Move motion controllers.
Adrian Lacey, Producer, Ubisoft Montpellier:
“Rotations and navigations via the 3dRudder combined with the PS Moves give the players a new control configuration that is exciting in VR and in our spherical battle spaces”.
THE WIZARDS – ENHANCED EDITION
Casting spells via hand gestures is at the heart of this game, created by Carbon Studio. The developers added support for the 3dRudder to provide players with more fluid movement.
Paweł Gajda, Head of Marketing & Publishing, Carbon Studio:
“The 3dRudder allows for a freer, more precise, and intuitive motion control. And players can focus on casting spells with their hands. We are happy to admit that it adds immersion and fun to our game.”

Plug & Play
Playing compatible PlayStation®VR games with the 3dRudder is done on a Plug & Play basis. All the player has to do is connect the USB cable of the 3dRudder to their PlayStation®4 system. The 3dRudder is automatically enabled in the supporting games and playable in combination with official PlayStation controllers such as the DUALSHOCK®4 wireless controllers, PlayStation®Move motion controllers or the PlayStation®VR Aim controller, depending on the gameplay.
