[Arkade, Inc.](https://akta.pro/company-profiles/003weaq/arkade-inc) demonstrated its Arkade Gaming Gun, a motion-controlled PC peripheral priced at $399 and due to release sometime in 2027, at Gamescom Asia x Thailand Game Show 2026. [IGN](https://in.ign.com/preview/275854/arkade-is-a-pc-peripheral-that-transforms-every-modern-shooter-into-a-light-gun-game) published a hands-on preview of the device on October 31, 2026.

## How the Arkade Gaming Gun Works

The gun uses proprietary tracking that requires no webcam or Wii-style sensor bar, according to IGN. A charging dock connects to a PC over USB-C and doubles as a wireless receiver for the gun, and a device manager lets players customise the button layout and calibrate tracking.

Movement is handled by a thumbstick on the side of the barrel, with a pair of buttons on the other side for actions such as jumping and controls at the rear for weapon-switching. Aiming is done by pointing the gun at the screen, activated by resting a finger on the capacitive touch surface of the trigger. The trigger has two stages: a half-squeeze zooms in slightly on the target and a full squeeze fires.

IGN's Tristan Ogilvie tested the gun in a demo of Prodeus, a shooter from developer Bounding Box Software, and wrote that after an initial adjustment the control scheme became second nature. The device supports PC, Mac and Steam OS. Creator and CEO Joshua Fuchs said the gun is not solely for first-person shooters and also supports third-person titles including Fortnite and the Resident Evil 3 remake.

## Arkade's Pre-Order and Shipping Plans

According to akta.pro [company records](https://akta.pro/company-data), Arkade opened direct-to-consumer pre-orders for the Gaming Gun in 2025 at $299 early bird pricing, $100 off the $399 target retail. The same records show the company enabled global direct-to-consumer shipping, with international delivery referenced in its FAQ, and launched customizable animated LED skins as an aftermarket personalization layer.

IGN reported that a discounted preorder rate is currently available from [Arkade's website](https://arkade.games). Fuchs said he hopes to bring the gun to consoles at some point in the future.
