Mizuno, which has developed products as a comprehensive sporting goods manufacturer until now, is using that expertise to make a full-scale entry into eSports gear!
This time, three products are being developed in collaboration with SF6, including:

• Gaming Chair -HAGIBIS-
• Gaming Controller -HAGIBIS-
• Blanka-chan Doll Buru-Buru Ballretch

Pre-orders will begin from May 1, 2026 (Fri) at 8:00 AM on the online service Makuake.

Featuring a Comfortable Seat and Juri Design: The Mizuno-Developed Gaming Chair -HAGIBIS-

With the Gaming Chair -HAGIBIS-, a comfortable seat is achieved by focusing on functionality and materials.

Armrests With Adjustable Height and Angles

PR TIMES

Posture and operation methods during gameplay vary by player, such as playing with the controller on a desk or on one's lap.
Therefore, the Gaming Chair -HAGIBIS- is equipped with a 360-degree rotation function in addition to adjustable height and front-to-back armrest positions.
Position settings for all playstyles are possible.

Mesh Material With Excellent Breathability and Durability

PR TIMES

The material uses mesh that combines breathability and durability to prevent heat buildup during use.
A comfortable seating environment is maintained even during long hours of streaming or play.

Design That Can Be Adjusted According to Physique

PR TIMES

The design allows for various adjustments according to height and physique.
It provides a more comfortable seat through features such as 2-stage adjustable lumbar support, a seat surface adjustable front-to-back and up-and-down, backrest height, and reclining.

The Headrest Is a Juri Design!

PR TIMES

This SF6 collaboration gaming chair features a Juri design on the headrest!

Product Information

• Product Name: Gaming Chair -HAGIBIS-
• Price: 121,000 yen (tax included)

Asymmetrical Design Improves Operability! Gaming Controller -HAGIBIS-

The Gaming Controller -HAGIBIS- supports gameplay with a high-operability design.

Ergonomic Asymmetrical Design

PR TIMES

Controllers generally have a flat shape.
Based on ergonomics, this product has an asymmetrical design where the left side has a convex shape and the right side has a concave shape.
The left side, which handles commands, supports accurate input by being gently raised.
The right side supports flexible button movement by being slightly recessed.

Separated Button Positions

PR TIMES

When buttons are placed in the center, both hands come closer together, and one tends to naturally adopt a hunched posture.
Therefore, the Gaming Controller -HAGIBIS- separates the button positions to the left and right.
It makes it easier to play while maintaining a posture that expands the rib cage and is less fatiguing.

Button Design With Juri Depicted!

PR TIMES

The SF6 character Juri is featured on two of the right-hand buttons.

Product Information

• Product Name: Gaming Controller -HAGIBIS-
• Price: 99,000 yen (tax included)

The First Vibration Type Ballretch Is Here! Blanka-chan Doll Buru-Buru Ballretch

Ballretch is a ball-shaped cushion weight weighing approximately 500g developed by Mizuno.
The Blanka-chan Doll Buru-Buru Ballretch has arrived as the first vibration type in the Ballretch series!
By pressing it against your chest, neck, or shoulders while sitting in a gaming chair, you can refresh your body, which tends to stay in the same posture for long periods.

Just like a regular Ballretch, it can also be used for arm or leg training when used without the vibration function.

Product Information

• Product Name: Blanka-chan Doll Buru-Buru Ballretch
• Price: 8,800 yen (tax included)
