The Atom Controller’s Unique and Versatile Two-Piece Design and Low-Latency Bluetooth Connection Make It Perfect to Pack and Go for an Exemplary Mobile Gaming Experience
White Plains, NY – October 18, 2022 – Leading gaming accessory maker Turtle Beach Corporation (Nasdaq: HEAR) today revealed the Turtle Beach® Atom™ Controller as its latest mobile gaming controller and newest addition to the brand’s expanding and critically-acclaimed controller portfolio, which includes the Recon Cloud Hybrid Controller, Recon Controller, and REACT-R Controller. The Atom Controller is an easily packable and portable mobile gaming controller with a unique design that magnetically connects to fit in a pocket, and splits apart into two separate modules when it’s time to play. The Atom’s versatile two-piece design and adjustable, spring-loaded smartphone clamps accommodate nearly every size Android 8.0+ smartphone on the market, with no need to remove phone cases. The two Atom modules use Turtle Beach’s proprietary 2.4GHz wireless link to stay connected to each other when gaming, while low-latency Bluetooth® ensures a reliable, lag-free connection with Android smartphones when cloud gaming on Xbox Game Pass, GeForce Now, Steam Link, and more.
An exclusive Designed for Xbox Atom Controller comes in Black and Yellow and features the Xbox Guide button plus a complimentary 1-month subscription to Xbox Game Pass. The Atom Controller also comes in Black and Teal and in Red. All three versions launch November 14, 2022 and are available for pre-order today at www.turtlebeach.com and participating retailers worldwide for $99.99 MSRP.

Expanding our portfolio to reach mobile gamers is another testament to Turtle Beach’s commitment to growing our share of the overall controller market. Atom is the latest in our expanded lineup of controllers launching this year, with more to come.”
