Gaming accessory maker Abxylute is targeting mobile gamers with the introduction of its new M5 and M6 gamepads. The controllers are designed to attach to smartphones, invoking the nostalgic form factor and dedicated control scheme of the classic Sony Ericsson Xperia Play.

The Xperia Play remains one of the most memorable dedicated gaming phones, and Abxylute's latest accessories aim to recapture that hardware-focused experience. By providing physical buttons and controls, the gamepads offer an alternative to on-screen touch inputs for mobile titles and emulation.

As mobile gaming and portable handhelds continue to evolve, add-on controllers like the M5 and M6 allow players to repurpose their existing devices into dedicated handheld consoles.
