CKRD Teases New Drum Kit For Rhythm Games

CKRD is getting the band back together, as the company behind several controllers for rhythm games has teased a new drum kit for 2026. The reveal trailer was short, but it did show off what looks like a comprehensive drum kit that includes four color-coded pads, three cymbals, and a pedal.

Beyond that teaser, CKRD mentioned on its blog post that it aims to use the lessons it learned from previous releases and fan feedback to create “something truly great” for players. The full reveal will be in Q1 2026, and the company says that it has two more announcements to make this year.

Rhythm games have made a small comeback over the last couple of years, thanks in part to Fortnite Festival. Essentially Guitar Hero for a new generation, the mode supports guitar controllers, and CKRD has a line of these peripherals available for purchase. They’re equipped with a built-in sensor for activating Star Power in Guitar Hero games, Navigation Hub buttons, strum bars with Hall Effect and haptic feedback, and a modular mechanical neck for different play styles.

These all work on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, and Switch 2, and even on mobile devices, and CKRD’s line are all based on Gibson Les Paul guitars. It’s next model, the Gibson Les Paul Cherry Sunburst Pro Edition, is priced at $200 and it launches on November 30.

PDP also offers its own guitar controller for Rock Band 4 and Fortnite Festival, and this is currently on sale for $120 (was $150). The PDP Riffmaster is compatible with Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PS5, and PS4. It has an ambidextrous design, and it can fold up for easy storage.
