The 8BitDo company has been making games controllers for the iPhone for years. Its newest one snaps onto the front of the phone in portrait orientation, and flips up to play.
Calling it the 8BitDo FlipPad, the company says that it is officially supported by Apple. There are no further details on price or a specific release date, but 8BitDo says it is coming for Summer 2026.
