With E3 2019 right around the corner, Fanatec has announced its latest offering. If the CSL Elite Wheel base looks and sounds familiar, it should. In 2017, Fanatec released the dedicated CSL Elite Wheel for the PS4. One year later, the German brand returned with the standalone CSL Elite Wheel Base +, also for the PS4.
Amongst the many goodies included in the latest GT Sport update, one was especially welcome for sim enthusiasts. Fanatec’s fantastic CSL Elite wheel is now officially supported by the title. It’s a big deal for those who own the wheel and now potential buyers have an even stronger case to pick one up. Fanatec is going one step further too, with a special Easter deal this week for the peripheral.
Fanatec teased a new product announcement when it revealed its Black Friday 2017 deals last week. Now, we know what that product is: the new CSL Elite McLaren GT3 steering wheel.
Sim-racing accessory manufacturer Fanatec has revealed (most) of its of Black Friday reductions: four peripherals will be on sale this weekend, starting Friday, November 24, including a secret sale that has yet to be announced.
Earlier this year, Fanatec unveiled its latest product, the CSL Elite. No, not the one we reviewed last year — a new model, featuring official support for the most popular console this generation, the PlayStation 4.
Black Friday has only just begun, but we’ve been keeping track of the deals since last week. One area that seems to be lacking — especially compared to last year — is sim racing hardware like wheels and seats. Fanatec has stepped up to offer a discount on a small selection of its wares, and depending on region, it could save keen racers almost 50% compared to retail.
Video games, at least in the beginning, are a fairly inexpensive hobby. Sure, a console will set you back a few bills, and games cost substantially more than a physical copy of a movie (I hear some people still buy those). But on a cost-per-hour basis, gaming has its advantages.
Fanatec has just announced the latest addition in its extensive lineup of sim racing accessories: the CSL Elite wheel base and pedal set. The new model sits below the existing high-end Clubsport V2 model, but is usefully more powerful than the original V1. It is compatible with both Xbox One and PC platforms.
