There are several major players in the gaming wheel market covering the full range of needs, no matter the platform: PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox, Switch, and PC. Each brand has its own DNA and pricing strategy. Expert gamers swear by Fanatec, a must-have brand renowned for its flawless quality, excellent force feedback, and vast ecosystem. Then come the big names like Logitech, Thrustmaster, Nacon, and Hori. We’ve selected three must-have wheels — apart from Subsonic models —:
Logitech G923: a gaming racing wheel featuring TrueForce dual-motor force feedback (900° rotation) for an immersive feel. It comes with a pedal set including a progressive brake and a clamp-based mounting system. Wheel compatible with PC and consoles depending on the chosen version.
Thrustmaster T300RS: a mid- to high-end wheel offering smooth, high-quality force feedback for PC and PlayStation, though it requires extra accessories (3-pedal set, shifter) to unlock its full potential.
Hori APEX racing wheel: an entry- to mid-range model without force feedback, offering 270° of rotation and PS5 compatibility. Ideal for casual gamers or those looking to try sim racing without a big investment.
Subsonic isn’t left behind with its new range of PS5-compatible wheels: the Superdrive 270 GT-5 at €129.99 and the 220 RS-5 for under €100.
