MOZA is coming to PlayStation 5—officially, this time. On September 17, 2026, at the Tokyo Game Show, the brand unveiled its first PlayStation-licensed lineup: three products built on two platforms, with native support for Gran Turismo 7 starting at launch.
The announcement had been expected since July 28, when MOZA became an official peripheral partner of the Gran Turismo World Series. We knew that console hardware was on the way. Now we know which one.
Two bases at once, and three ways to get there
MOZA didn’t launch a single product—it launched a line. That distinction matters when you’re trying to figure out where to start.
The MOZA R5S Pro Racing Simulator is a complete package: base, steering wheel, and pedal set all in the same box. In the official images, this pedal set includes two pedals, with no clutch. So this is definitely an entry-level model.
The MOZA R16S Ultra Racing Simulator follows the same concept as the bundle but aims higher: the R16S Ultra base and its steering wheel, for those looking for more force feedback.
The third option isn’t a bundle at all. The MOZA R16S Ultra Direct Drive Wheel Base is sold as a standalone unit, to be paired with a compatible MOZA steering wheel of your choice. No list has been published.
On the software side, all three share the same promise: Gran Turismo 7 is natively supported from day one, thanks to a collaboration with Polyphony Digital, and MOZA also announces a growing selection of compatible titles.
On the PS5, you can choose direct drive from a short list
A PlayStation 5 gamer looking for direct drive has few options to choose from. The Thrustmaster T598, which Thrustmaster describes as Direct Axial Drive, starts at 5 Nm. The Fanatec Gran Turismo DD Pro is the entry-level model at 8 Nm. The Logitech G PRO Racing Wheel sits in the middle with 11 Nm. And the Fanatec ClubSport DD+ tops the range at 18 Nm.
And this lineup has come together gradually. The Gran Turismo DD Pro arrived in March 2022, the ClubSport DD+ in late 2023, and Logitech holds its own with just one model. MOZA, on the other hand, is entering the market with two performance tiers and three ways to access them—all at once. In a console market that has long been closed off by licensing, that’s where the real news lies.
That leaves the specs. MOZA hasn’t released torque figures for its PS5 versions. The PC models with the same names list 6 Nm and 16 Nm, and given the consistent naming convention, it’s very likely these figures will carry over. We’ll need the spec sheet to be sure, but if confirmed, MOZA would cover both ends of the console market right from the start.
Two points to watch before pre-orders open
Let’s just say it right away: current MOZA equipment is not compatible with the PS5. The support documentation states that the R5, R5 Pro, R9, R12, and R16 Ultra are not compatible with either the PS4 or the PS5. The R16 Ultra works on Xbox with the licensed ESX steering wheel, but not on PlayStation, and no official adapter has been announced.
The press release focuses entirely on the console and does not mention the PC. So the question remains open for those who play on both platforms—and it’s an important one: at this price point, people rarely buy a Direct Drive for just one platform. This is the kind of detail that’s usually included in the technical specifications.
Second point, which is more technical than cause for concern: the legal notice states that the three products will be compatible with the PS5 , subject to final approval by Sony Interactive Entertainment. This is a standard step for any licensed hardware, and it explains why no release date has been announced yet.
The console market is gaining another player, and this one arrives with an entire ecosystem behind it. That leaves the price—the only factor that will determine whether MOZA can replicate on the PS5 the performance-to-price ratio that made it a success on PC.
