The DOOM + DOOM II NEO S Controller is a limited-edition controller designed by CRKD in collaboration with Limited Run Games to complement the DOOM + DOOM II physical releases. Priced at $69.99, it’s compatible with Nintendo Switch, PC, mobile, and smart TVs, and comes with a charging dock. The controller features a DOOM-themed design, though specific details like artwork or unique inputs (e.g., Cacodemon motifs or custom buttons) aren’t widely specified in available info. It’s part of the broader DOOM + DOOM II merchandise lineup tied to the enhanced re-release and collector’s editions, including the Will It Run Edition.
The DOOM + DOOM II game bundle itself, included in various physical editions, supports controllers natively across platforms (PC, PS5, Xbox, Switch), with full wireless support for PS5 and Switch controllers, including motion controls on Switch.
The NEO S Controller should integrate seamlessly for gameplay, offering precise inputs for the games’ fast-paced combat, 16-player cross-platform multiplayer, and modded content like Legacy of Rust. However, there’s no mention of exclusive features like rumble specific to DOOM’s mechanics (e.g., demon kills or BFG blasts), so it’s likely a standard controller with thematic branding.
If you’re eyeing it, the NEO S is a collector’s piece, but its $70 price might not justify the cost for everyone, especially since the games run well with any modern controller. Pre-orders are open until May 18, 2025, via Limited Run Games, but stock may be limited due to the niche release. For gameplay, a keyboard and mouse still reign supreme for classic DOOM precision, but the NEO S should be a solid, stylish option for couch or portable play.
