MSY Co., Ltd. announced that pre-orders for the low-profile arcade controller GRAPHT Command Trigger for PC, co-developed with gaming device brand Akko, will open on Thursday, September 17, 2026.

The GRAPHT Command Trigger for PC Debuts, Engineered for Speed and Precision Control!
PR TIMESThe Command Trigger for PC is a low-profile leverless arcade controller engineered to pursue input speed and uncompromising control in competitive scenes.
Development began with the concept of incorporating low-profile keyboard switches and feel into a tournament-grade leverless arcade controller. Listening closely to feedback from fighting game competitors, the team aimed to unite a 17-button layout, rapid input responsiveness, and deep customizability into a single comprehensive device.
1.8mm Actuation Stroke and Low-Profile Keycaps Powering Rapid Input Speed
PR TIMESTo achieve maximum input speed, the switches and keycaps were co-developed with gaming device brand Akko.
The switch keystroke depth is engineered precisely to 1.8mm.
By considering both accidental misinputs caused by overly shallow travel and delays caused by excessive depth, the design achieves the perfect harmony of input velocity and operational ease.
Striking this balance is exceptionally challenging, and as competitive players, it is a design choice we deeply appreciate.
Furthermore, slimming down keycap thickness facilitates seamless slide inputs (pianoing) while providing immediate, tactile feedback for every keystroke.
Peak Input Response! Polling Rate of up to 8,000Hz
The controller supports an 8,000Hz polling rate.
By transmitting input data to the PC up to 8,000 times per second, the player's commands are mirrored instantly in-game, virtually eliminating perceptible input latency.
Embracing the Feel of WASD Movement! Highly Flexible 17-Button Layout
PR TIMESEquipped with a generous 17 buttons, the controller offers exceptional freedom by letting users choose which buttons to utilize.
Given modern fighting games' heavy reliance on simultaneous input macros and auxiliary bindings, having extra buttons is a massive advantage.
Unneeded buttons can be disabled completely, ensuring full compliance with tournament regulations while preventing accidental presses from resting palms.
The distinctive button layout accommodates players accustomed to keyboard WASD movement who are transitioning to a dedicated fighting game controller.
Rather than being restricted solely to thumb-based jumping standard on traditional leverless controllers, players can select a button setup closely mirroring keyboard ergonomics, accommodating diverse playstyles across all gamer backgrounds.
Equipped with a 2-Inch Color LCD and Jog Dial for Seamless Setting Adjustments
PR TIMESA 2-inch color LCD sits on the top-left of the unit, complemented by a CNC-machined aluminum jog dial on the left side.
Button configurations and profile checks can be executed smoothly directly on the controller itself.
Players can configure and save distinct button profiles tailored to specific characters, control types, and game titles directly to internal memory, enabling instant switching on the fly to match any tournament or practice scenario.
Hot-Swappable Switches Supported! Customize Your Keystroke Feel
To ensure a natural transition for players used to keyboard gameplay in FPS and other genres, the controller adopts a standard hot-swappable architecture.
Switches can be swapped out for compatible aftermarket mechanical switches beyond the proprietary options, letting you fine-tune key resistance and actuation feel to your liking.
Individual switches can be easily replaced, ensuring outstanding serviceability and helping newcomers dial in their ideal control setup.
Engineered with Rigorously Curated Features for Tournament Play
Omitting unnecessary gimmicks for esports competition, the controller focuses strictly on features that enhance tournament play.
While macro functions that execute multiple inputs with a single press are completely absent to guarantee fair play, it fully supports SOCD cleaning modes, multi-profile storage, and auxiliary button remapping.
The hardware is tailor-made to provide a reliable, tournament-ready environment from daily scrims to major stages.
Cable Lock Mechanism to Prevent Accidental Disconnections
PR TIMESTo prevent the USB connection cable from accidentally pulling loose during offline tournament matches—especially when playing on your lap—a dedicated cable locking bracket is included.
When not in use, it stores neatly into the underside of the chassis, ready to be deployed whenever needed.
It is an exceptionally thoughtful feature when traveling to events.
Collaboration Models Featuring Street Fighter 6 Artwork Debut
PR TIMESCollaboration models showcasing artwork from the blockbuster fighting game Street Fighter 6 will also be released.
PR TIMESThese editions feature newly commissioned Japanese-style calligraphy capturing the dramatic Super Art (SA3) finish screens for "Shuugeki" and "Isshun Sengeki": SF6 Special Moves Jamie Art by Petan and SF6 Special Moves Akuma Art by Petan.
These are must-have collector items for any Jamie or Akuma main.
PR TIMESThe lineup also includes SF6 YEAR 3 Art by Kangyaku, celebrating the 3rd anniversary of Street Fighter 6 with an original illustration of all 30 playable characters up through Year 3, and YOU'VE GOT THIS, JURI!, featuring art from the ongoing webcomic serialized on the official Street Fighter 6 PR X account (@SF6_PR), bringing the total to four designs.
