    FULL STORY ======================================================================

    Gaming peripheral manufacturer CRKD has revealed new Tomb Raider inspired special editions of its Nitro Deck+ and NEO S controllers in its latest collaboration with Limited Run Games.

    Both controllers are strictly limited to 1,000 units and feature artwork inspired by the recently released Tomb Raider 1-3 Remastered trilogy. This includes a mountainous backdrop and, in the case of the NEO S, a silhouette
    of Lara herself. Aside from the decal, they are both an eye-catching blue hue with bright orange highlights on the thumbsticks and triggers.

    The Tomb Raider Special Edition Nitro Deck+ costs $79.99, while the Tomb Raider Special Edition NEO S Controller comes in slightly cheaper at $59.99. Pre-orders are available now exclusively via the Limited Run Games website
    and will only be up for a limited time.

    The Nitro Deck+ is an enhanced version of the Nitro Deck, a peripheral that
    we already consider to be one of the best Nintendo Switch accessories on the market. We awarded it a rare five out of five stars in our Nitro Deck review
    , branding it an essential accessory for Nintendo Switch owners. If you need
    a quick recap, it's effectively a handheld dock that provides you with comfortable grips, excellent buttons, and premium Hall effect sticks while in handheld mode.

    The more recent Nitro Deck+ differs from the original Nitro Deck in a few major ways, including the switch to a symmetrical thumbstick layout and the addition of a HDMI output for TV play.

    We were also big fans of the NEO S, which scored four out of five stars in
    our NEO S review . We praised its portable design and highly collectable nature, not to mention the controllers superb battery life. The Tomb Raider Special Edition NEO S Controller also comes packaged with a nifty charging dock, which doubles as its own display stand.

    While the Nitro Deck+ is exclusively compatible with the Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch OLED , the NEO S is compatible with all Nintendo Switch
    models in addition to PC, iOS, and Android.

    These new special editions look like theyre shaping up to be a real treat for both Tomb Raider fans and gaming controller collectors. You might also
