CRKD™, the premium collectible gaming brand known for its award-winning Nitro Deck™ and NEO S™ controllers, has announced the NEO S LINKIN PARK Edition, a licensed special edition controller designed for Fortnite Festival and other rhythm-based games.
A Celebration of Music and Gaming
The NEO S LINKIN PARK Edition is compatible with Nintendo® Switch™, PC, Mobile, Tablet, and Smart TVs. This one-off drop features artwork inspired by LINKIN PARK Instruments in Fortnite Festival and includes two brand-new Fortnite Festival Jam Tracks, featuring the band’s new single “Up From The Bottom” from their upcoming Deluxe Edition album From Zero, set to release on May 16, 2025 via Warner Records.
Available for pre-order today, the NEO S LINKIN PARK Edition is expected to ship in May 2025.
Transforming the Gaming Experience
The NEO S LINKIN PARK Edition is the second controller in CRKD’s Festival range, designed to bring gamers closer to the music they love. The unique Festival Attachment replicates the frets found on a real guitar, providing a more authentic and immersive experience. This attachment has been ergonomically designed to fit comfortably in the palm of your hand, featuring five action buttons that replicate guitar frets, enhancing gameplay for rhythm music games like Fortnite Festival and Rock Band™.
Versatile and Innovative Design
Fans of Fortnite Festival can use the NEO S LINKIN PARK Edition to play various instruments, including Keytar, Drum, Mic, and Bass song parts. The controller can also be used without the Festival Attachment for regular games, making it a versatile addition to any gaming setup.
Thanks to its wireless compatibility and compact footprint, the NEO S is perfect for on-the-go gaming. With Hall-Effect Thumbsticks, ‘Stick Drift’ is eliminated, and features like ‘No Deadzone Mode’, integrated Motion Controls, and Adjustable Trigger Sensitivity make the NEO S a highly adept controller for all games. Remappable Back Buttons, Adjustable Vibration, and Swappable Stick Tops provide a wealth of customizable options. Bluetooth® technology allows the NEO S to be used with Smart TVs, mobile devices, and tablets, delivering a mighty controller for all your gaming needs.
Collectible and Customizable
Like all CRKD hardware, the NEO S LINKIN PARK Edition is fully compatible with the CRKD ‘True Collection System’, a free mobile app for iOS™ and Android® that registers the product number and rarity ranking of your hardware into your personal secure collection. CRKD products with Bluetooth capabilities also connect to the CRKD CTRL feature within the app, allowing users to customize the adjustable features of their controller.
The NEO S LINKIN PARK Edition is available for pre-order today at https://go.crkd.gg/fnfestival and https://store.linkinpark.com/. It is expected to start shipping later this year for a suggested retail price of $59.99/ €69.99 / £59.99.
