Logitech G Introduces G29 and G920 Force Feedback Racing Wheels


After being rumored for weeks, Logitech has officially announced the G29 and G920 force feedback racing wheels. Check out the video here.

DiRT Rally, Driveclub and Project CARS have all confirmed compatibility.

The Logitech G29 Driving Force Racing Wheel will be available in July for the Playstation 3 and Playstation 4, while the Logitech G920 Driving Force Racing Wheel for Xbox One and PC will be available in October. No matter which version you decide on purchasing, it will cost you $399.

Read the full press release below.

Fans of racing games have been clamoring for a new Logitech G racing wheel to play the hottest driving games on next-generation consoles. The wait is finally over with the announcement today that the Logitech G29 Driving Force Racing Wheel for Playstation 3 and Playstation 4 will be available in July, and the Logitech G920 Driving Force Racing Wheel for Xbox One and PC will be available in October.

Each wheel has been engineered with dual-motor force feedback to realistically simulate the feel of your car. Helical gearing ensures exceptionally smooth, quiet and precise steering action. Anti-backlash hardware keeps the wheel and pedal input tight, to maximize control. These wheels feature hand-stitched leather, stainless steel paddle shifters and pedals and solid steel ball bearings will last for years around the track and replicate the feel of your car.

Improving on the G27 design, the G29 and G920 each include a separate pedal unit, that lets you comfortably brake, accelerate and change gears, just as you would in an actual car, and also allows you to maintain a more realistic body position for driving. The Driving Force Shifter, available as an optional add-on and sold separately, adds even more control with a six-speed gear selector and push-down reverse. All components can be mounted securely to desks or racing simulator chairs such as Playseat.
