Wheel and Base for PS4 and Xbox

Chet Coletto

Hey everyone,

 

I am looking to build my first sim rig and I am trying to source hardware for the project. I have my Chassis and TV picked out but I am struggling with a base and wheel. I only play console at this point as I do not want to buy or build a PC to support triple screens, (maybe next year). On the same note I have both a PS4 Pro and an Xbox one for GT sport and Forza. I am trying to find a base and wheel I can use with both consoles to avoid buying multiples of things and having to unmount a bunch of hardware.

I would like to go with a ClubSportv2.5 base but I honestly just want something I can switch between consoles with. It seems like you get one or the other sorry for being generally unknowledgeable about this topic but hopefully someone can tell me I am all wrong or suggest a product which will work for me.

 

Thanks,

You can use any Fanatec steering wheel which is officially licensed for Xbox.

Another option is this wheelbase but it becomes much more expensive and you will have to buy steering wheel which is officially licensed for Xbox..

So based on this does the wheel make the difference on what you are connecting to or the base? or do both have to jive?

your suggestions are for a base which is approved for the PS4 and the wheel is approved for PS4 and Xbox.

The wheel base allows PS4 compatibility, the steering wheel allows Xbox compatibility. That's why you need officially licensed PS4 base with officially licensed Xbox steering wheel.

CSW V2.5 is not officially licensed for PS4 and is not compatible with it.
