GameSir unveils its Kaleid and Kaleid Flux controllers, featuring a stunning illuminated design, comfortable grips, and advanced capabilities.

Multiple platform compatibility, Hall Effect sticks, and customizable buttons provide gamers with a competitive edge at an affordable price point.

London, 29th May 2024 – GameSir, a World-renowned brand in gaming peripherals, is proud to announce the launch of its Kaleid and Kaleid Flux controllers. These amazing new wired game controllers are designed to enhance the gaming experience with their advanced features, vibrant illuminated LED strips, and high-quality, comfortable design. Engineered with precision, and packed with features, these latest additions to GameSir’s outstanding range of controllers are the ultimate choices for FPS and action gamers that are looking to take their gaming performance to the next level. GameSir is focused on providing gamers with a superior gaming experience through its high-quality yet cost-effective controllers.

The GameSir Kaleid is available to purchase on Amazon UK, Amazon US and the GameSir official website, with an RRP of £59.99/$49.99 from May 30th

The GameSir Kaleid Flux is available to purchase on Amazon UK, Amazon US and the GameSir official website, with an RRP of £55.99/$46.99 from May 30th.

An additional 10 percent discount coupon is also available for both controllers during the three month launch period.

The Xbox-licensed controllers feature GameSir’s signature Hall Effect sticks, which effectively deliver an anti-drift glide and a reliable, precision-tuned performance on Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One X|S and Windows 10/11 and Steam platforms. The Hall Effect Analog triggers are designed to deliver a consistent output, ensuring that actions like accelerating or braking during racing games give reliable and predictable results. Textures on the grips, triggers and bumpers keep fingers firmly in control during rapid actions, while also ensuring comfort and a strong grip during extended gaming sessions. 

Both models boast a stunning transparent design that incorporates 2 customisable LED light strips that can be tailored to each gamer’s unique preferences to suit different environments, moods and styles. The Kaleid has microswitch ABXY buttons, rainbow light colors, and an original PCB pattern printed with ‘KALEID’, whereas the Kaleid Flux features membrane ABXY buttons, a stunning gold light color, and is printed with a stylish damascus pattern.

Equipped with four distinct motors, these controllers can deliver both strong and subtle vibrations as needed, enhancing the tactile feedback for a more immersive gaming experience. With two asymmetric motors in the grips and in the triggers, gamers can truly experience the real, precise feedback of crashes, gunshots and bumps. The two macro back buttons offer extensive customization, allowing users to map them to a single button or a combination of buttons based on their preferences. Additionally, a turbo function can be enabled for rapid, repeated inputs. For those that like to play FPS and action games, there is a useful quick-switch to Hair Trigger Mode, which can be enabled simply by holding M + LT / RT buttons for 3 seconds. When precise linear control or ultimate responsiveness is required, the Kaleid family of controllers give the competitive edge each and every time.

Using the fully customizable GameSir Nexus software, users can enjoy creating controller profiles by mapping buttons, fine-tuning the sticks and triggers, and configuring vibration and light effects. Up to three profiles can be saved simultaneously, allowing players to adjust their settings based on the game they are playing.


The GameSir Kaleid is available to purchase on
