You know with new consoles, Mad Catz is going to bring some new peripherals to the table. And with Forza being a big title for the Xbox One, you'll need a wheel to play it.
In comes the
Xbox One Force Feedback Racing Wheel to satisfy your racing needs. It's got some nice leather that's wrapped around the wheel for comfort. If you want to customize the wheel, there's a removable aluminum face on it. Adjustable pedals let you change the spring resistance and location in terms of height and spacing so you can be comfortable while you drive.
No price at this time, but expect the wheel to be available when the Xbox One launches.
