Wireless

No pedals. No cables.

Play from the couch, the floor or standing up, the way the cabinet meant it. 2.4GHz wireless with a fast, quiet trigger. Nothing ties you to the TV.

Recoil + rumble

Every gun kicks differently.

Recoil and rumble sync to the game. A shotgun hits harder than a pistol. Run out of ammo and the kick stops. Reload and you feel it. Get grabbed and the grip shakes.

The game library

A whole arcade on one drive.

Hundreds of light gun classics, pre-configured and tested for Recoil 88. Plug it into your PC, pick a cabinet and press start.

01What does it connect to?

A Windows or Linux PC, a laptop or a Raspberry Pi runs the games. Steam Deck works in Desktop Mode. It isn't a console on its own.

02Does it work with PS5 or Xbox?

No. Neither console allows third-party light gun drivers.

03Does it work on my TV?

Yes. It tracks by infrared, so LED, OLED and 4K TVs and projectors up to about 100 inches all work.

04Is there a foot pedal?

No pedal needed. A cover button on the gun lets you duck and reload.

05What's in the box?

The light gun, a USB receiver, 4 IR sensors, 2 rechargeable batteries, a charging cable, the setup software and a manual.

06What size TV works best?

The sweet spot is 33 to 55 inches. Bigger works too, you just stand further back. See the screen size guide above.

07What if I don't love it?

You're covered by the Cosmody 30-Day Money-Back Guarantee.
