![]() While collapsed, the Kishi is nice and compact, making it easy to throw into a bag and bring with you on the road. The PSPlay app and/or Sony’s Remote Play are you streaming from your physical console. xCloud is Microsoft’s tech for cloud-based gaming to provide you with game access through Game Pass Ultimate. Now, I’d like to make something clear for everyone reading this on the difference between xCloud and PS4 remote play. While playing there was no noticeable lag while issuing my button presses, for not only the aforementioned action/adventure games, but for fighters like Dead or Alive 6 where timing is pretty crucial for counters and holds. The PSPlay app should also as far as I know work for PS5, and the Kishi should work for the most part, but I’m going to have to call that conjecture since I don’t have the means to give it a try.Īnother plus is that as opposed to a bluetooth-connected controller, the Kishi is directly connected via USB-C, so there’s far less latency than over wireless. If it cleanly and effectively allowed the owning of Mongols in Ghost of Tsushima and lurking in the shadows in Assassin’s Creed: Odyssey, then I’m comfortable calling that a win. ![]() It’s not perfect but it’s pretty damn close. This is easily solved using an app called PSPlay by Florian Grill which Technical Fowl recommends for this function. This made me quite upset, since that’s the real meat of functionality I was looking forward to. Sony, unsurprisingly, is quite stingy with their native Remote Play app, which will not work with anything other than a DualShock 4 controller or with touch control, which is impossible to play with. ***DISCLAIMER HERE FOR PS4 REMOTE PLAY – YOU WILL HAVE TO BUY A $5 APP TO MAKE THIS WORK.*** Now in my case, since I consider PS5 scalpers criminals and have plenty of games in my PS4 library, I put my Kishi and Note 9 to work for PS4 remote play. And It’s nice to be able to do so without having to carry around an Xbox controller. The Kishi supports xCloud in the form of Xbox Cloud Gaming, which means that you can play Xbox games on your Android, provided you have a subscription to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate ($14.99/month). The real value of the Kishi is the ease with which you can turn your mobile device into a portable console. So far it’s worked with most of the games that are played landscape mode that I’ve tried from the Play Store which is great, but that’s the “basic level” use for this controller. It’s self contained and doesn’t require any additional power to get you up and running, and feels very comfortable even with its compact size. We took the Android version for a test run.Īvailable in two versions ($79.99 base, $99.99 Xbox edition), the Kishi is a flexible controller that your mobile device is inserted into, kind of turning whatever you have into something that has the feel of a Nintendo Switch for lack of a better comparison. Every single one of these issues was solved thanks to Razer’s Kishi controller. I could get one of those connectors, but that’s still a bulky solution. I could add a controller, but then I’d need a stand for the phone. Even still, the “stick” control was still based on the touchscreen and after a while that kind of got boring. Mobile gaming never really resonated with me, but I gave it a try once some remakes and enhanced versions of classic games I used to play (like the Final Fantasy series) started making appearances in the Play Store.
