Gaming Deal Of The Week: Grab A Logitech G923 For Its Lowest Price Ever

It can be tempting to spend an absolute boatload on a racing wheel if you’re entering the world of sim racing for the first time. The truth is though, you really don’t need any more wheel than a Logitech G923 to have 90 per cent of the fun you’d have with something twice the price – and now it’s on sale at a bargain price.

Right now, Amazon UK is running a ‘back to school’ sale covering educational essentials like stationery, notepads, folders and err… simulation racing hardware. As a result, the G923 is currently available for £228.99.

That’s 15 per cent off its £269.99 RRP which may not sound like a huge drop, but as far as we can tell from various Amazon price trackers, is the lowest it’s ever been available for. The only other retailer in the UK offering that price is John Lewis, although with just one unit in stock online at the time we’re writing this.

The G923 is an evolution of the G920, which has long been the de facto choice for those wanting to dip their toes in serious sim racing for the first time (including yours truly). It’s a belt-driven force feedback wheel, meaning it lacks the fidelity of ever-more common but more expensive direct drive options, but holds its own well. Plus, because it’s so popular, pretty much every racing game supports it out of the box.

On top of the G920’s internals, the G923 introduced Logitech’s Trueforce tech which software enhances the force feedback too. Not every game supports the technology, though, so it’s worth checking out compatibility.

Included with the G923 is a set of pedals which includes a clutch, handy if you’re keen on adding Logitech’s H-pattern shifter to the package.

You can have the G923 in two flavours – one for PlayStation, and one for Xbox (albeit at £1 more) – but both support PC. Unfortunately, there’s no offering for all three due to the complicated way product licensing for consoles works.

Keen? Act fast, the sale ends on 30 September.
