Makcu

AimForge runs on the Makcu, a ready-made USB device you buy, not build. Our firmware turns it into a mouse-and-keyboard converter for PS5 and Xbox, and it works with almost any controller you already own. Plug it in and AimForge flashes it for you.

Get a Makcu

Order a Makcu from any seller in the list above. It arrives fully assembled — there's nothing to build, solder, or configure on the hardware itself.
