In a world dominated by Horis, MadCatzs, and Razers, Jasen’s Customs line of premium Panzer Fight Sticks tend to stand out among the crowd. With their all-metal construction and incredible levels of bespoke customization, these sticks can be truly said to be the Rolls Royce of the home arcade stick world.

This level of quality continues with the newly announced Panzer Fight Stick 3. This latest edition of Jasen’s Customs Panzer line comes in a slightly more compact form factor than its monstrous Panzer Fight Stick 2.0 predecessor. Despite this however, the Panzer Fight Stick 3 retains the same functionality as the 2.0, with even more buttons on the front panel (7 instead of 6).

As for the parts used, the Panzer Fight Stick 3 is compatible with both the ubiquitous Sanwa JLF as well as the Hori Hayabusa lever. Buttons holes are standard sized 30 and 24 millimeter ones allowing for the players choice of buttons from Sanwa, Hori, Seimitsu, and the like. Meanwhile, the electronic heart of the stick is a Brooks Universal Fighting Board allowing for compatibility with PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, Xbox One, Xbox 360, and PC.

For those interested, pre-orders for the Panzer Fight Stick 3 will open later this November. In the meantime, check out these photos from Jasen’s Customs.
