- CRKD has revealed a new version of its small Atom controller called Atom+
- Still small and relatively cheap, but now offering TMR joysticks
- It is compatible with Nintendo Switch and Switch 2, as well as PC and mobile phones
Gaming accessory brand CRKD has announced Atom+, a new version of its small Atom controller.
Despite offering significantly more functionality, the CRKD Atom+ is still extremely compact and wouldn’t look out of place on a keychain. Unlike its predecessor, it’s now equipped with two joysticks, meaning it should play well with basically any Nintendo Switch or Nintendo Switch 2 game.
They are also premium TMR joysticks, offering improved precision and completely eliminating the risk of joystick drift. With its Bluetooth connectivity, it is also compatible with PCs, mobile phones and some smart TVs.

The controller even supports vibration feedback and motion controller, which is particularly impressive for something so small. CRKD hasn’t made any claims about the Atom+’s battery life, but I expect it to last a few hours like its predecessor.
“We’ve created a portable gamepad that’s powerful enough for modern gaming yet small enough to take anywhere,” said Jack Guinchard, global brand manager at CRKD.
The Atom+ costs just $29.99 / £29.99 / AU$54.99, includes a wrist strap and charging cable, and comes in four colorways (Smoke Black, Glacier Blue, Retro Purple and Pal Grey), all of which are available to pre-order now via CRKD’s website.
