“A great force-feedback racing wheel can be the difference
between crossing the finish line first and spinning off the track
and not finishing at all,” said McLaren F1 driver Lando Norris.
“The new Logitech G923 wheel with TRUEFORCE gives drivers an
authentic experience behind the wheel and simulates the details we
feel as racing drivers. I can feel if the rear of the car loses
grip or if I’m about to spin, which gives me the best chance to
quickly correct it, and stay ahead of the competition.”
TRUEFORCE is a proprietary high definition force feedback
technology that revolutionizes what’s possible in supported racing
games. Using actual game physics and audio in real time, it allows
players to feel things like the roar of an engine, tire traction,
the terrain of the track, and feedback of the steering wheel more
than ever before. TRUEFORCE connects directly to in-game engines,
processing at up to 4000 times per second to produce next-gen
realism and detail in supported games.
“For the last few years, we’ve been working with sim drivers,
and professional race car drivers to develop a full-featured,
realistic driving experience like no other,” said Ujesh Desai,
general manager at Logitech G. “With TRUEFORCE you really get to
feel the road, along with all the subtle features of the race car.
It truly elevates the experience, and everyone we’ve had try it
always walks away with a smile!”
Designed for today’s sim racers, the G923 wheel and pedals have
been modernized with a brushed metal steering wheel, polished
pedals and a leather wheel cover for maximum comfort. In addition,
the G923 was designed with a number of new features, including:
- Programmable Dual Clutch Launch Controls - allows racers
to get off the line cleaner and faster with a programmable
dual-clutch that facilitates maximum traction and minimum
smoke.
- Built-In Rev Indicator - built-in colored LED lights
indicate your RPM range, alerting the racer when they’re hitting
redline.
- On-Wheel Game Controls - game controls for PlayStation 4
and PlayStation 5* consoles integrated into the steering wheel for
total control at your fingertips.
- Progressive Brake Pedals - featuring a new progressive
spring for a more responsive feel, the new brake pedal
responsiveness adds more realism and control.
- 24-Point Selection Dial - built in selection dial allows
the racer to adjust traction, torque, automatic stability
management, brake force and more.
