I've always loved guitar controllers. From countless hours playing the original Guitar Hero games to hogging their arcade machines whenever I find one, there's just no feeling quite like rocking out with one of these controllers in hand. Just when I started to get super nostalgic about this bygone era of rhythm games though, PDP sent me its newest controller that looks like it's been ripped straight from the time.
The Riffmaster Guitar Controller, launching in April, is the first guitar controller I've seen released in ages. In fairness, there hasn't been much need for them, because since Guitar Hero Live's interesting spin on the formula back in 2015, rhythm games that use them have been few and far between. Now, with Fortnite Festival bringing renewed interest to the genre, the Riffmaster seems poised to serve as the go-to controller for it.
