Portable gaming just got a new contender for your pocket. CKRD released the Atom+, a keychain-sized Bluetooth controller that brings console-style controls to devices where space is tight. This compact form factor matters because it lets players use traditional thumbsticks and triggers on screens that usually rely on touch or bulky accessories. You can carry it on a keyring and deploy it instantly for quick sessions on the go.

CKRD releases a keychain-sized Bluetooth controller featuring TMR thumbsticks to prevent stick drift, priced at $29.99.

The Atom+ is built around a stick technology called TMR, or tunnelling magnetoresistance. CKRD states that these precision thumbsticks eliminate the stick drift that plagues many standard controllers. The device connects via Bluetooth and draws power through a USB-C port. It features digital triggers rather than analog pressure-sensitive ones, keeping the internal layout simple and compact.

Compatibility is broad across the current gaming landscape. The controller works with the , the upcoming Switch 2, PCs, mobile phones, tablets, and smart TVs. CKRD includes a wrist strap for security during active play. Users can also download the CKRD Companion App to remap buttons and customize control schemes to their preference.

The Atom+ is available now for global purchase. Pricing is set at $29.99 USD, which is around $29.99. European buyers will pay €34.99 EUR (around $40.07), while the UK price is £29.99 GBP (around $40.02). This entry-level price point makes it an accessible option for players who want a dedicated controller without spending on premium hardware.

CKRD highlights the device's portability and durability in its official feature list. The company describes it as an ultra-compact controller small enough to take anywhere. They emphasize that the TMR technology ensures zero stick drift over time. These claims position the Atom+ as a reliable, low-maintenance accessory for travelers and casual gamers alike.
