A Fully Customized Controller
You can completely personalize a controller from scratch. Choose your version between PS4, PS5, or Xbox and let your imagination run wild.

Personalizing an Existing Version
Lacking inspiration but still want a version that's uniquely yours? We’ve got you covered!
Each controller available on our site can be modified according to your preferences. Whether you play with inverted controls (O on the left and X on the right), prefer red buttons instead of green, or want to add your username or logo directly on the touchpad — it’s all possible.
Simply click "Personalize Yours" instead of the usual "Add to Cart" button. The LAB configurator will launch with the options of the controller you selected, and you’ll be able to make the changes you desire.

🎮 |Which joystick should I chose ?
Well, I'd say there are no right or wrong sticks. If I had to sum up the possible choices, I'd say it’s all about finding what works best for you... 😉 Anyway, we have a wide range of sticks available.
We offer sticks in different sizes, shapes, and colors. We have curved ones for better thumb stability, domed ones for those who prefer a larger surface for support, and L-shaped sticks for more precision—ideal for sniper specialists.
Our BC Sticks have been designed to be easily replaceable. Simply pull them off like a bottle cap and snap the replacement on in their place.

Garantie et retours
🔒 | What does my warranty cover ?
In order to offer the best performance and flawless compatibility, Burn only modifies official controllers.
At this stage, the manufacturer's warranty is no longer valid.
Burn then provides a 6-month warranty, covering parts and labor.
Drift issues with the analog sticks are only covered during the first 6 months, as they result from rapid wear due to the use of the controller in FPS-type games.
It is possible to extend the warranty duration at the time of purchase, and only at the time of purchase, via the LAB, our online configurator. This option is offered at the price of €30.
🔙 |I received my controllers, can I exchange it ?
Yes, it is possible under certain conditions.
You must request a return through customer service using the contact form.
The controller must be returned in perfect condition. Upon receipt, a refund will be offered for the purchase of a new controller.
Please note that no exchange is possible for controllers where the touchpad has been personalized. /pages/contact
🆘 |What do I do if I have an issue with my order ?
You must inform customer service via the contact form providing as much detail and precision as possible.
Assembly and maintenance of controllers
🛠️ |How to configure my Burn controller ?
Since these are official controllers, most of the time the installation is done automatically by plugging the controller into the console with the cable.
On rare occasions, pairing will need to be done manually. To do this, simply put the controller in Bluetooth pairing mode and search for it in the device manager of the console or PC.
🧽 | How to maintain my Burn controller ?
You can maintain your controller by using a soft cloth to wipe off any marks. Avoid using liquid, as it could damage the controller.
From time to time, you can blow a little dry air around the analog sticks to remove any dust that might interfere with their proper functioning.
