ATLANTA, GA, October 12th, 2023 – SCUF Gaming, creator of the high-performance gaming controller category (NASDAQ:CRSR), today announced the launch of its groundbreaking new line of PC controllers, SCUF Envision. Designed specifically for PC gamers, SCUF Envision redefines the PC gaming experience with its unprecedented customization and cutting-edge technology.

Offering an unparalleled level of control, SCUF Envision grants PC gamers a decisive competitive advantage, with the additional control options that have made SCUF controller synonymous with competitive gaming. Within a familiar shape, 11 additional remappable inputs compared to standard controllers, empower gamers to create a controller layout that suits their unique playstyle and puts every control within easy reach, for when it matters most.


“Our vision is to provide PC gamers who choose to play with a controller the best possible experience in their favorite games,” said Bertrand Chevalier, GM of SCUF Gaming. “Before Envision, players settled for performance on controllers that weren’t optimized for PC gaming. Now, with Envision, they have more control, and faster responses, all on a platform tailor-made for PC.”

Showcasing its versatility, SCUF Envision boasts five fully programmable G-Keys for convenient access to any PC shortcut. Additionally, the controller features two Side Action (SAX) buttons that unlock new possibilities in game configurations, along with four integrated back paddles for faster reactions and more control in your favorite games. Switch weapons, jump, or slide, all without taking your thumbs off the thumbsticks. Launch an app, mute your microphone, or even launch your stream without your hands leaving the controller.

SCUF Envision innovates further with mechanical ABXY and D-Pad buttons, which offer crisp and responsive inputs. With SCUF Envision Pro, gamers can also take advantage of Adjustable Instant Triggers, allowing them to switch between mouse-like clicks for quick FPS shots and the full trigger range for RPG and racing-style games. The controller's hyper-fast connectivity ensures seamless and lag-free inputs, with Envision Pro unleashing ultra-low-latency CORSAIR SLIPSTREAM Wireless Technology for advanced PC gaming completely free from wires.



“SCUF has always been at the forefront of performance controllers. We introduced back-control functions back in 2011 and have continued to bring innovation to the category. Being part of the Corsair family provided the perfect opportunity to bring the best of both brands together to create the ultimate controller experience for PC gamers,” said Chevalier. “SCUF Envision represents the next evolution of gaming controllers, providing greater precision, and performance than ever.”

SCUF Envision also integrates seamlessly with the power of Corsair iCUE software, enabling gamers to customize thumbstick and trigger response curves from the same interface they use for their entire PC setup. Players can also synchronize the controller’s RGB light strip with the rest of their battlestation, elevating their gaming atmosphere to dazzling new highs.

Putting extraordinary versatility and personalization in your grasp, SCUF Envision delivers more control, more finesse, and more performance to change your game once again.

Pricing and Availability

Compatible with Windows 10 PCs, SCUF Envision starts at $129.99 and Envision Pro starts at $179.99. Both will be available from October 12th at select retailers, and from SCUF Gaming’s website: scufgaming.com/pc-scuf-envision

Isaac Hamilton, meglio conosciuto come IceManIsaac, è molto deciso. Tutto ciò che fa ha uno scopo. Così, quando ha deciso di dedicarsi alla creazione di contenuti e allo streaming, sapeva di aver bisogno di una vera e propria strategia di contenuti. Quella che ha elaborato gli è servita fino ad oggi: Non si tratta di lui. 

Invece di condividere gameplay con sé stesso, IceManIsaac ha iniziato a condividere delle guide per far migliorare gli altri. E ha funzionato. Il suo impegno nei confronti della community ha dato vita a Warzone Academy, lo ha aiutato a esplodere su YouTube e lo ha fatto diventare famoso. Ma questo è solo l'inizio. 

Abbiamo incontrato IceManIsaac mentre si prepara a rilasciare il suo primo controller SCUF personalizzato per saperne di più su come ha iniziato, su cosa ha ispirato il design del suo controller e su cosa ha in serbo per il futuro. 

Qual è stata la tua prima interazione con il gaming? Quale gioco ti ha appassionato per primo? 

Gioco da quando ho memoria. Da quando ero bambino, non ricordo un periodo precedente al gaming. Sono nato nel '93 e Pokémon Rosso è uscito nel '96 sul Game Boy, ed è stato uno dei miei primi videogiochi da bambino. 

Ho giocato anche su Nintendo 64. Adoravo Diddy Kong Racing. Ricordo di essere stato battuto da mio cugino quando avevo quattro o cinque anni e di aver fatto i capricci. Così ho iniziato ad allenarmi e alla fine l'ho battuto. 

Mi sono appassionato a giochi tipo Super Smash Brothers 64 e mi sono divertito a conoscere story game come Super Mario 64. Mi ha accompagnato per tutta la vita: ho giocato dal N64 al GameCube, alla PS3 e PS4. Ho persino giocato con la Xbox.  

Cosa ti ha ispirato a fare streaming? 

Mi sono innamorato di Overwatch nel 2016 e ho iniziato a scalare le classifiche durante la pausa dell'addestramento dell'Aeronautica. Poi qualcuno mi ha detto che ero il terzo Hanzo al mondo. Così, ho continuato a spingere e quando ho raggiunto la posizione numero 1, ho realizzato un video sulla mia scalata da oro a grandmaster e l'ho pubblicato su YouTube. Quel video è decollato e mi ha fatto capire il potere della creazione di contenuti. 

Quando le persone nei commenti su YouTube mi dicevano che avrei dovuto iniziare a fare streaming, non avevo idea di cosa stessero parlando. Poi ho imparato a conoscere Twitch e ho scoperto summit1g e Dr DisRespect, che mi hanno ispirato a iniziare lo streaming. 

Come riesci a gestire la vita nell'Aeronautica e l'attività di streamer a tempo pieno? 

Devo trovare un equilibrio tra 80 e 100 ore di lavoro alla settimana. A volte mi sveglio alle 3 del mattino per andare al lavoro, volare o fare un turno di otto ore. Poi torno a casa, ceno con mia moglie, bevo una tazza di caffè e mi dedico subito alla registrazione di video su YouTube e allo streaming. Non ho davvero tempo libero durante la settimana. 

Ma sono fortunato. Mia moglie è la compagna perfetta. È l’eroina che sta dietro le quinte di tutto questo progetto. È la mia manager, mi aiuta con i contratti, le consegne e si assicura che tutto sia in regola. Niente di tutto questo avverrebbe senza di lei. 

Ci vuole molta dedizione e disciplina per far funzionare tutto questo, ma so che se farò le cose per bene, quando lascerò l'Aeronautica, potrò dare a mia moglie e alla nostra futura famiglia la vita che meritano. Amo l'Aeronautica e volevo servire il mio Paese. E sento di averlo fatto. Ma questo è il mio sogno e lo inseguirò con tutto me stesso. 

Di recente hai raccontato di aver terminato la costruzione dello "studio di contenuti/gioco dei tuoi sogni". Di quali elementi essenziali avevi bisogno? Hai in programma di continuare ad ampliarlo? 

Per me, lo scopo della costruzione dello studio era la prima impressione. Ci sono letteralmente migliaia di persone che trasmettono in streaming lo stesso gioco, quindi quando qualcuno entra nel mio stream, voglio che sappia che tengo ai miei contenuti, alla mia community e al mio lavoro. 

Quindi, volevo che l'illuminazione fosse perfetta. Volevo curare l'estetica. Volevo fare qualcosa che nessun altro aveva fatto prima. Ora molte persone lo stanno copiando, e questo va benissimo. Ma io sono anche un grande appassionato di tecnologia. 

Ho due monitor ASUS 4K, un monitor 1440p 240 Hz per i giochi principali e un setup da due PC. Ho anche controller SCUF dappertutto, telecamere molto belle e una scrivania costruita come un carro armato. In termini di prestazioni e di estetica, posso giocare per molto tempo con questo setup. 

Cosa pensi di Warzone 2? 

Sono davvero entusiasta. Ho avuto la possibilità di giocare a Warzone 2 in occasione del Call of Duty: Next, e ci sono molte cose che cambieranno radicalmente nel gioco, tanto da farlo sembrare legittimamente Warzone 2.0, e non semplicemente una nuova mappa. 

Alcune cose nel gioco sembreranno complicate, con le nuove meccaniche di movimento e di looting. Fortunatamente, avere uno SCUF mi aiuta molto, non devo preoccuparmi di giocare in claw o usare un midi pad. Posso configurare le palette per aiutarmi in questo senso.  

La mia cosa preferita di Warzone 2 è la nuova mappa, è incredibile. È ottimizzata molto bene. La visibilità è incredibile ed è tutto bellissimo. Si gioca davvero bene. 

Come ti sei avvicinato a SCUF 

Ho parlato con loro al TwitchCon di quanto amo i loro prodotti, e SCUF mi ha mandato un controller da recensire. Quindi ho iniziato a fare recensioni di SCUF. Pensavo di diventare uno YouTuber di recensioni tech. Poi è arrivato Warzone e ho iniziato a lavorare con Warzone Academy, e il resto è storia. 

Raccontaci di più sul tuo design SCUF esclusivo! 

Contrariamente al mio nome, odio il freddo. Odio il freddo più di ogni altra cosa. Ma ho sempre amato l'estetica del blu, il blu ghiaccio, il blu elettrico, questo colore è davvero bellissimo. Volevo che il controller fosse evidente sulla mia handcam e i colori sono semplicemente incredibili. Si adatta perfettamente all’atmosfera che ho creato con il blu elettrico e il design retro wave. 

Ma più di ogni altra cosa, volevo che fosse molto minimal. Volevo che questo controller fosse progettato per la persona che lo utilizza; volevo che sembrasse il suo SCUF. Ecco perché il logo dell'occhio dell'aquila è super minimale in basso a sinistra e il logo Academy "A" in basso a destra.  

Tutti i contenuti del mio canale sono finalizzati ad aiutare le persone a migliorare e a migliorarsi, e SCUF è uno degli strumenti che raccomando per aiutare le persone a perfezionarsi. Questo è l'obiettivo del design del controller. È il giocatore che lo usa nel suo percorso di miglioramento, non io. La community che ho costruito è molto importante per me e questo controller è per loro. 

Kris Lamberson, conosciuto dai suoi 600.000+ follower come “FaZe Swagg”, ha 2,1 milioni di follower su Twitch e 2,54 milioni di iscritti su YouTube che guardano le sue streaming regolarmente.  

È il primo membro nero del FaZe Clan e uno dei creator più riconoscibili sul pianeta. Ma forse già lo sapete. 



Sapevate che i popcorn sono il suo snack preferito durante le streaming? E che ha un rituale pre-partita prima di ogni torneo o che la sua stream più lunga è durata 17 ore?

Queste sono le cose che vogliamo sapere di Swagg. E prima del lancio del suo controller SCUF personalizzato, siamo riusciti a fare proprio questo.  

Godetevi questo esclusivo Q&A per scoprire di più sulle prime volte di Swagg, l’ispirazione che c’è dietro il suo nuovo controller e molto altro.  

Qual è il primo gioco a cui hai giocato?

Tutto è iniziato con NBA Live 2003 su PS2. Giocavo sempre a quel gioco con mio padre. 

Qual è stata la tua prima console? 

PS2. Mia mamma ce la regalò per Natale, con anche alcuni giochi. Io e mio fratello andavamo sempre con lei da Blockbuster per affittare i giochi. 

Come ti sei avvicinato al mondo dei videogiochi?  

Il mio amico Kaleb mi mostrò Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 alle superiori e mi sono appassionato. Da quel momento, prendevo in prestito la copia di Jsmooth e giocavo a MW3 tutti i giorni. 

Qual è il gioco più difficile a cui hai giocato?

Fortnite Building su PlayStation. È molto più difficile giocare con il controller rispetto a mouse e tastiera. 

Qual è il tuo COD preferito di tutti i tempi?  

MW3, senza dubbio. È stato il primo COD a cui ho mai giocato e quello che mi ha fatto iniziare tutto. 

Qual è la persona con cui preferisci giocare di più e perché?

Jsmooth, a mani basse. È goffo e con lui non ci si annoia mai. 

Qual è stata la tua streaming più lunga?

17 ore – con Caldera. Non volevo smettere di giocarci per l’hype della nuova mappa e volerla esplorare già dal primo giorno 

Hai uno snack preferito per quando giochi?

Popcorn. Sono facili da mangiare tra una partita e l’altra e sono buonissimi. Anche la sera mentre guardo un film, o al cinema, mi vedrai sempre con i popcorn. 

Hai dei rituali pre-partita?

Durante i torneo, indosso sempre la maglia dei FaZe e mi carico con la chat prima di iniziare a giocare. 

Per quanto riguarda il tuo periodo da giocatore basket, ovviamente i due sport richiedono un diverso livello di resistenza fisica e mentale, ma hai trovato qualche somiglianza?

Capire l’equilibrio tra il non sovraccaricarmi e l’assicurarmi che la mia mente sia sempre a posto. La palestra aiuta molto in questo, specialmente con il basket che richiede più sforzo fisico rispetto ai videogiochi. Ora per me è molto più importante allenarmi, mi aiuta a resettare la mente.  

Qual è stata l’ispirazione dietro il design del tuo controller SCUF?

La mia Mercedes-Benz AMG GT Brabus. Amo il colore, è blu Miami. Quindi ho pensato, perché non farci un controller? 

Cosa significa per te essere partner di SCUF da cinque anni?

È fantastico. Utilizzo i controller SCUF da quando gioco a COD. Essere partner da cinque anni è un’emozione surreale. I migliori controller!

SCUF Instinct incorporates all of the innovative features gamers expect from SCUF – including the patented paddle control system that helped make SCUF controllers the premier choice of competitive players everywhere – with an evolved controller design to improve performance for Xbox fans.

Today’s gamers shouldn’t stick with one game, franchise, or genre, which is why Instinct introduces onboard, remappable profiles that can be toggled through at the press of a button, a SCUF first. Paddle profiles make it easy to fine-tune controller settings and save them for later for different games. No pause in gameplay, remapping tool, or app required.

— SCUF Gaming, innovator and creator of the high-performance gaming controller category, has unveiled the new SCUF H1 customizable wired gaming headset. Based on the design and technology of the award-winning CORSAIR VIRTUOSO headset, the H1 is customizable and tailored for competitive gamers who prefer the zero-latency provided by a wired headset.


The SCUF H1’s lightweight design is fully configurable and built for comfort, with immersive sound and a high-resolution interchangeable microphone to make crucial callouts that can be the difference between a victory or a loss. Every rustle of footsteps in a grassy field and every far-off missile strike is delivered with clear fidelity, almost doubling the audio frequency of most gaming headsets.

The H1 is the result of a collaboration with new parent company CORSAIR, which acquired SCUF Gaming in 2019. Building on SCUF’s heritage of customization, comfort, and performance, the H1 is available in two base colors with dozens of customizable features so players can express their style and even match their headset design to their favorite SCUF controller. Features include:


  • High-bandwidth microphone with a removable and universal headphone jack provides wide dynamic range and superb vocal clarity (uni-directional or omni-directional options available)
  • Speaker tags allow for easy customization to keep your style fresh (30+ design options available)
  • Premium memory foam earpads deliver long-lasting comfort for long gaming sessions (Synthetic leather or hybrid options available)
  • Precision-tuned 50mm high-density neodymium speaker drivers deliver clear, high-quality sound in the heat of battle
  • Adjustable, synthetic leather headband conforms to the shape of your head
  • In-line volume control allows you to make on-the-fly adjustments without distracting you from your game


“We created the H1 to pair flawless audio quality with play-all-day comfort,” said Duncan Ironmonger, CEO and Founder of SCUF Gaming. “The H1 is a natural extension of the controller and continues our legacy of combining performance and customization. Gamers can customize their H1 to get the look and feel that they want, with the lightweight design engineered for competitive gaming so players can wear it for hours without thinking twice.”

SCUF H1 is compatible with any device equipped with a 3.5mm headphone port or with a 3.5mm adapter, including controllers for current and next generation consoles, smartphones, tablets, and PCs.

The SCUF H1, starting at $129.99, is available to configure and purchase on scufgaming.com/h1.

Looking for a gift for the gamer in your life, but not sure where to start? SCUF
provides the best performance controllers on the market - for an improved gaming experience while matching your style. Each SCUF controller is customizable from how it looks to which features are suited for the type of gamer in mind. SCUF controllers are perfect for those who love shooter games, but are also great for those who play a wide variety of different types of games. 

Let’s take a look at each type of controller can offer: 

The SCUF INFINITY4PSPRO is the entry into the world of performance controllers with two paddles on the back and a similar shape to a regular PS4 Controller. It is compatible with the PS4, PC, and Mobile Devices. 

SCUF IMPACT is the next level up with 4 paddles on the back for PS4, PC, and Mobile. It has a wider shape than a regular PS4 controller, so it’s great for those who have larger hands.

SCUF PRESTIGE has 4 paddles and a similar comfortable shape to the Xbox One controller.  It is compatible with Xbox One, as well as the next generation of consoles: Xbox Series S, Xbox Series X, and PC + Mobile. 

Each custom controller in the builder has several options to select: 

EMR: Choosing EMR will allow the paddles on the back of the controller to be remapped to whichever buttons someone wants instead of the default buttons. Great for customizing the controller to how one likes to play. 

Trigger Systems: There are three types of trigger systems to choose from which will affect how the buttons on the top back of the controller function.

  • Default - This option leaves the triggers as normal, like any other controller. 

  • Trigger Control System - This option adds a switch to the triggers that can be turned on to decrease how far the trigger has to go to activate. It also adds the ability to adjust the hair triggers which will increase the button’s response time. This option is great for shooter games and some action/adventure games.

  • Digital Tap Triggers - This option makes the triggers function similar to the click of a mouse button. This option is recommended only for shooter games and perfect for those who are really into shooters. 

Thumbsticks: Each SCUF Controller has interchangeable thumbsticks to increase comfort and suit hand size + playstyle. There are choices for shape and height.

  • Concave - Concave shape allows the thumb to dig in for more rapid movements and easier thumbstick clicks

  • Domed - Domed shape provides more subtle control for precise movements

  • Short - Shorter length means less distance to travel for faster reactions

  • Tall - Longer length provides a better angle for increased

Control Disc: This option provides a circular disc on top of the D-Pad on the left and makes it easier for players to hit diagonal directs if needed, like in fighting games. It is removable, so you can still use a regular D-Pad for other games too. 

Grip: There are three options for grip for the SCUF Infinity4PSPro and the SCUF IMPACT.

  • No Grip - This option will leave the back of the controller smooth

  • Military Grade - A textured plastic grip, will help reduce sweat when playing for long periods of time and improve comfort. 

  • High-Performance - A rubberized grip that will reduce sweat and slippage when playing for long periods of time and improve comfort. 

Rumbles: Rumbles are what cause a controller to vibrate when certain things happen in game. By default, they are left in the controller. There is an option to remove them which will decrease the weight of the controller and will remove any unwanted movement when playing. Usually a choice for very competitive shooting game players.

We also have a Holiday Gift Guide to help pick the perfect gift for your gamer.

On April 2, we were notified by security researcher Bob Diachenko that an internal development database was potentially exposed to the internet. Once notified, we identified the root cause of this exposure and secured the database within two hours. While investigating Mr. Diachenko’s warning, we also discovered that a bot had connected to the database’s server and placed a ransom note there. We have no evidence that either the bot or any other actor was able to misappropriate customer data.

This issue was specific to one system, being operated off-site due to work-from-home precautions resulting from the current COVID-19 pandemic. It contained a database used for customer orders, returns and repairs, along with other non-sensitive customer information. We immediately took action to close off this access.

Please rest assured, there is no risk of exposed customers’ full credit card numbers, credit card CVV numbers, scufgaming.com user names, encrypted customer passwords, or any card information for orders processed via PayPal or other payment methods.

Information in the database did include customers’ name, email address, shipping address, billing address, SCUF order history, and if applicable SCUF returns and repairs history. Only the last four digits of payment cards and payment card expiration dates for orders processed before March 28, 2019 were included.

We understand the importance of our customers’ privacy and security, and are taking immediate steps to directly notify all affected customers. We are also performing an in-depth security audit to test that our other systems and databases remain secure. 

We encourage our customers to monitor their personal accounts and email for suspicious activity and be cautious of any unsolicited communications that ask for their personal data or refer you to a web page asking for personal data.

If our customers require further information regarding this data exposure and how they may be affected, they can contact [email protected]

We take the security of the data you entrust to us extremely seriously and are committed to keeping it safe, both now and in the future. We wish to thank Bob Diachenko, security researcher at SecurityDiscovery.com, for his help in bringing this issue to our attention and our IT team for resolving it rapidly. 

We hope you stay safe and well in these challenging times with COVID-19.

Call of Duty League 2020 Begins

A new era of Call of Duty esports, featuring 12 city based teams, began this past weekend with the Launch Weekend hosted in Minneapolis by the Minnesota ROKKR. New rivalries were formed and new teams showed their true strengths going into the upcoming season of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare. Before it kicked off, SCUF was announced as the Official Controller Partner of the Call of Duty League. 

Performance Highlights

Atlanta FaZe and Chicago Huntsmen performed as many expected, taking a commanding 2-0 record after the weekend. Surprising performances this week came from the Paris Legion winning both of their matches this weekend and the Florida Mutineers, who finished the weekend 1-1. Both Dallas Empire and OpTic Gaming Los Angeles fell short of very high expectations, ending at the bottom of the leaderboard at 0-2 each. Home team Minnesota ROKKR started strong at 2-0, also winning the first Battle for the North over the Toronto Ultra. 

SCUF At CDL Launch Weekend

Over at the SCUF booth, fans could learn from SCUF Experts the best tips and tricks for COD: MW, try any SCUF controller at the Game Stations, and pick up their favorite controller from the SCUF Store. Another popular spot was the SCUF Build Challenge, where customers could compete to see who could get the faster time of the week for an impressive prize. To top it all off, all 12 teams stopped by the SCUF signing booth, the only place for fans to meet their favorite players. Local Minnesota ROKKR fans turned up in droves to meet their new team.

Next Up: CDL London

The Call of Duty League continues with the next homestead weekend hosted by London Royal Ravens on February 8-9. To keep up to date on the Call of Duty League, follow SCUF on Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube
