Awaken Your Inner World Warrior: Introducing the Razer Kitsune – Ryu Edition
Razer has launched a limited-edition Razer Kitsune – Ryu Edition fight stick featuring Street Fighter’s Ryu, debuting at EVO 2026 in Las Vegas for PS5 and PC.
Razer unveiled the Razer Kitsune – Ryu Edition, a limited-run fight stick designed for PS5 and PC, honoring Street Fighter’s Ryu. The controller features a dye-sublimated aluminum top plate with a black-and-white Ryu-inspired design and red accents, blending competitive hardware with collectible aesthetics. The product will be introduced at EVO 2026 in Las Vegas, targeting fighting game competitors, fans, and collectors seeking a premium arcade controller. The design emphasizes Ryu’s discipline and fighting spirit while maintaining tournament-ready performance standards.
The Kitsune – Ryu Edition retains the original Razer Kitsune’s optical all-button layout, replacing a traditional joystick with four directional buttons for faster, more responsive inputs. Shorter actuation height reduces input delay, improving execution of moves like Hadoken and Shoryuken in high-level competition. The controller supports customizable lighting with multiple color options and pre-loaded effects, allowing players to personalize their setup. Tournament Lock Switch functionality disables non-essential buttons during matches, ensuring focus remains on skill and execution.
Built for portability, the Kitsune – Ryu Edition features a slim, detachable USB Type-C cable with a built-in security clasp to prevent disconnections during play. Its compact form factor simplifies storage and transport between home setups, local tournaments, and major events. The design prioritizes both competitive functionality and stylistic appeal, appealing to players who value performance and collectibility. The controller is positioned as a statement piece for Street Fighter fans within the Fighting Game Community (FGC).
The Razer Kitsune – Ryu Edition continues the Kitsune series’ focus on precision and reliability, offering an alternative to traditional fight sticks for competitive players. By combining Ryu-themed aesthetics with the original model’s high-performance foundation, Razer targets both collectors and serious competitors. The limited-edition release underscores Razer’s strategy to merge gaming culture with functional hardware for dedicated audiences.
