ABOUT

 

Go Beyond the sounds in gaming, music, and movies – Introducing the Next Level Racing HF8- Haptic Feedback Gaming Pad. Feel the immersive haptic experience with the eight strategically placed vibration zones that are powerful and localized for precision. The Next Level Racing® HF8 is optimized for different simulation games* for a unique in-game experience. The HF8 suits all gaming chair, racing/flight seat styles, and bodies comfortably for the best user experience. The HF8 includes plug-and-play PC software to provide you a multi-channel experience without the need of additional sound cards or amplifiers.

 

*Localization and intensity of each motor can only be adjusted through PC use and HFS software. Console players do not require the HFS software as the eight motors will work collectively through the audio output.

NEXT LEVEL HAPTIC EXPERIENCE

 

Feel the sound through your body like never before! The Next Level Racing® HF8 eight localized motors have been designed and positioned to suit all genres of simulation. Suiting a wide range of users, the HF8 Gaming Pad’s tailored design allows a seamless placement on your sim racing seat, flight seat, or gaming chair for eight unique feedback points to be felt comfortably throughout your body. Strap in for a tight fit with the added easy adjustable straps for a suited fit with your gaming chair or racing /flight seat. Designed to heighten your experience for Racing, Flight, and FPS Gaming, you can now feel every road effect, turbulence, and explosion within the game for an even more immersive gaming experience than ever before. Take your esports training and competition to the next level by feeling every action in the moment. If you are already using haptic hardware like ButtKicker® or Motion Platforms the HF8 compliments these by adding extra customizations to your experience.

COMPATIBLE WITH PC, SUPPORTS CONSOLE

 

A seamless connection for a unique gaming experience. With a direct connection through USB for PC and a 3.5mm audio jack connection to console/audio devices, the HF8 ensures fast, low latency feedback through the eight localized haptic motors. For console users, the haptic feedback is felt through all eight haptic vibration zones simultaneously.

 

In-game telemetry data* for PC games and sound output for console games, provide an immersive experience for racing, First Person Shooter (FPS), and flight.

 

*PlayStation does not have a dual audio output option, making the use of Bluetooth headsets on PlayStation not compatible when using the HF8 Gaming Pad. The HF8 Gaming Pad must be connected to the PlayStation controller via the 3.5mm audio jack.

PLUG-AND-PLAY SOFTWARE FOR PC

 

No hassle, just download and play the included Next Level Racing® Haptic Feedback Software. Designed and developed specifically for the HF8, you can interact with a growing list of racing and flight titles.

 

The Next Level Racing® HFS included PC software makes it seamless for users to enhance the experience with the HF8 Gaming Pad controlling each motor independently. As one of many variations, you can have 4 motors controlling the effects of tires to feel rumble strips independently or have all 8 motors giving vibration for gear changes.

 

You can interact with ready-to-use haptic profiles or create your own for each gaming title, and even share your profile with the gaming community. List of compatible games.

 

Next Level Racing® will be continuously updating the HFS software with new gaming titles as they are released. If the title you are looking for is not listed in the HFS software, please contact us at hfs.support@nextlevelracing.com to share your feedback. HF8 Gaming Pad users can also utilize the Simhub software to access a variety of gaming titles and effects to maximize the experience.

 

** Please note that console players do not require the HFS software as the eight motors will work collectively through the audio output in games, music, or movies.

CONTROL YOUR HAPTIC IMMERSION

 

Feel it your way, for PC users.  The HF8 can be adjusted based on the desired haptic experience. The HFS software uniquely controls the intensity of each haptic vibration motor within the software to ensure an unbroken immersive experience. The HF8 Gaming Pad allows you to feel and fine-tune your braking, acceleration, rev limiter, speed, engine rpm, ground effect, and suspension in racing games*.
While in flight you can control your haptic experience with effects such as flaps, G-force, speed air brakes, ground bumps, damages, stalls, and APU/JFS Running. Each profile and effect intensity can be controlled based on your preference to feel what is immersive to you.

Haptic HF8

Easy to fit, easy to use, software updates simple to install, has worked perfectly since installed, no issues, and even though it's at the lower end of immersion, if you're on a budget and want to dip your toe into the water before purchasing something upmarket, then this a great starting point.

Feed back - poor

Not good! Also highlighted a number of issues through the support link/contact and still no reply. The actual software wouldn't open after the 3rd time i used it. Had to google and found a forum suggesting i create a new directory and move files there. That worked. No reply from support. Also can't get number of games to work like Dirt Rally 2.0. Again no support or reply.

Enhance Your SIM experience

Set up and plug and play straight forward. Updating software is fiddly and seems easiest to uninstall and install lastest version. Also if you seat position cannot be adjusted down you will find you have get use to sitting higher and adjusting your screen setting as the pad is about 15-18mm thick, which move up and forward. Overall good quality and increases the immersive feel of race SIMs like AC and iRace.
