On October 20, 2025, Corsair Gaming announced that its subsidiary Fanatec unveiled a new Podium series of sim‑racing hardware at the SimRacing Expo. The launch includes the Podium DD direct‑drive base, offering 25 Nm of holding torque, revised electronics, and an all‑aluminum internal and external structure. The Podium Pedals feature a forged aluminum brake pedal and a 200‑kg load cell, providing precise brake feel and durability.
The new Podium DD builds on the ClubSport DD and ClubSport DD+ platforms, delivering a broader dynamic range and stronger internal construction to enhance FullForce technology effects. The Podium Pedals are available in a Formula variant with carbon‑fiber faces and heel cups, and the pedals can be mounted individually for customizable setups. These innovations are expected to strengthen Fanatec’s position in the fast‑growing esports and sim‑racing segments.
As a subsidiary of Corsair, Fanatec’s product expansion complements the company’s high‑margin peripherals and gaming components strategy. The launch is a key operational milestone that could drive additional revenue and market share in the enthusiast and esports markets. The announcement underscores Corsair’s commitment to delivering premium, high‑performance hardware to gamers and content creators.
