Image of Logitech iPhone Game Controller Leaked
An image of what might be Logitech's upcoming MFi (Made for iPhone) controller
for the iPhone has been leaked on Twitter by @evleaks, who has been known to
provide reliable images in the past.
The enclosure controller wraps around the iPhone, adding buttons and controls
on either side of the phone and is similar to an earlier prototype that was
leaked back in June. It also fits with teaser images that Logitech released a
few weeks ago.
While the controller in the image is an enclosure model, other available models
are said to be standalone controllers that will not require an attachment to an
iPhone or an iPad to function.
In addition to the Logitech gamepad, GameCase last week released a trailer for
its GameCase iPhone controller, which connects via Bluetooth and is battery
operated.
News of MFi controllers first surfaced in June, after Apple debuted the
controller API at WWDC. Since the release of iOS 7, many games have
incorporated Game Controller Support, including several major titles like
Walking Dead and Bastion.
Though no game controllers have yet to hit the market, the appearance of
controller support in games and continuing hardware leaks suggest that a
release could come at any time, possibly during Apple's rumored iPad-centric
fall event.
