ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--This holiday season, KontrolFreek, the leader in creating performance gaming gear for the active gamer lifestyle, will distribute their products in-store for the first time through an exclusive deal with Microsoft Stores. Available from September 20 in tandem with the launch of the KontrolFreek FPS Freek EPIC™ product, a specially-designed accessory to accompany the Gears of War 3 release, three other FPS Freek classics: LEGENDARY™, PRESTIGE™ and VIPR™ can also be bought standalone or as a bundle. Microsoft Stores have 13 locations nationwide including Atlanta, Los Angeles, Seattle, Illinois, San Diego and Houston.
To celebrate the multiple midnight launches of Gears of War 3 by Microsoft Stores nationwide, fans will be able to join onsite game tournaments where there will be special KontrolFreek prizes to be won.

Developed as a tribute to Gears of War 3, FPS Freek EPIC is the first ever thumb stick accessory designed to help gamers improve their gunplay as Marcus Fenix. The product not only enhances control when executing medium to long-range shootouts but it also keeps players agile during those infamous chainsaw melees. With a concave surface that propels gameplay accuracy, comfort and optimum grip to the next level, fans will also love the tactile feel and the signature crimson omen carved onto each EPIC product. KontrolFreek’s FPS Freek LEGENDARY, PRESTIGE and VIPR will provide a great selection for fans who want to experience the range of motion, accuracy support and unique feel on the thumbs that each product provides for other major FPS franchises.
FPS Freek EPIC will be available at Microsoft Stores for $14.99. FPS Freek LEGENDARY and FPS Freek PRESTIGE are both priced at $14.99, and FPS Freek VIPR, priced at $10.99, will also be available in-store.
