NAGANO, Japan, Dec. 24, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- The only converter officially approved for use at EVO – the world's largest fighting game tournament – now supports PS4 with its new model: the Brook Wingman FGC VX.

Taiwan-based gaming accessory manufacturer Brook, together with Chapstablook, Ltd. (Ueda, Nagano, Japan; CEO Keisuke Kashima), proudly announce that the new model of the highly acclaimed Wingman FGC series has expanded to the U.S. market.

Following its successful launch in Japan in July 2025, the Brook Wingman FGC VX officially launched in the United States in December 2025.

Upgraded from Previous Generations
The Brook Wingman FGC VX inherits the ultra-low latency and rock-solid stability of its predecessor the FGC2, while expanding platform support.

In addition to PlayStation 5 and PC (X-Input), the new VX now adds PlayStation 4 compatibility, allowing players to use their favorite arcade sticks and wired pads across all major platforms without compromise.

Brook's converters remain the only adapters officially recognized for EVO use (as of December 2025), making them the ideal choice for serious fighting game players worldwide.

The Wingman FGC VX breaks down the "platform barrier", offering a definitive solution for today's competitive scene.

Key Features

Next-Generation × Multi-Platform Support
Compatible with PS5, PS4, and PC (X-Input). Users can re-use their favorite arcade controllers and pads across modern and legacy systems.

Driver-Free Plug & Play × High Compatibility
No software setup needed — USB connectivity enables immediate functionality. Supports over 150 wired arcade sticks and pads from brands like HORI, Qanba, GameSir, and Victrix. (For the latest compatibility list, users can visit the official Brook website: https://www.brookaccessory.com/detail/57388663/)

Ultra-Low Latency Design for 1-Frame Precision
Minimizes input delay to deliver maximum combo accuracy and reaction speed — crucial for winning moments in competitive matches.

Customizable via Brook Converter Center
Settings for Turbo (fire rate), Remap (button layout), Macro (recording), and Stick Mode switching are available to support customized configurations.

EVO-Approved Restricted Mode
The Wingman FGC series is officially approved for use at EVO. When the FGC VX LED indicator glows blue, it enters a restricted mode that disables Turbo, Remap and Macro functions for tournament compliance. (Each tournament organizer should be checked for their specific rules.)

Firmware Updatable
Future-proof via firmware updates available on Brook's official website, enabling support for new devices and features.
