Logitech G RS50 System (Xbox/PC)
8 Nm direct-drive Xbox/PC wheelbase bundle with hub, round wheel and TRUEFORCE, no pedals
Logitech's 2025 mid-range direct drive system: an 8 Nm base with on-base OLED and TRUEFORCE, sold with the RS Wheel Hub and RS Round Wheel. It undercuts the G PRO by a wide margin and works on Xbox and PC out of the box.

Pros and cons
- 8 Nm direct drive with TRUEFORCE for about $700 including a rim
- Up to 2,700° rotation and an OLED screen for settings without a PC
- Modular hub-and-rim design: swap RS rims for about $70 each
- Pedals are extra (RS Pedals about $160)
- Young ecosystem: few rims and add-ons compared with Fanatec or Moza
- Costs more than some PC-only 5–9 Nm bundles
Watch out: This bundle's hub carries the Xbox licence; it is not sold as PlayStation-compatible, so pick the PlayStation version if you might move to PS5.
What it feels like

- Detail
- Smoothness
- Noise
- Heat
Strong enough that heavy cars load up the wheel without being a fight.
Road texture comes through clearly in games that support TRUEFORCE.
Quiet enough to run on a desk without drowning out the game.
Like going from a power-assisted steering rack to a light sports car with no assist.
What the RS50 System (Xbox) works with
- Works on Xbox Series and PC. On Xbox it needs an Xbox-licensed wheel.
- In the box: Logitech G RS Wheel Hub + RS Round Wheel (bundled, Xbox/PC).
- Wheels attach with the Logitech Pro quick release.
- Pedals plug into the base, which is what lets them work on console.

Our take
AI analysis of public information, not a hands-on review.
The RS50 System is Logitech's first direct-drive wheelbase, and this version is the practical way into direct drive for an Xbox owner who also wants PC. For about $700 you get the 8 Nm base, an Xbox/PC wheel hub, the round rim and a table clamp. Pedals are not included, so budget for them. Logitech's older G-series pedals work through an adapter, but the load-cell RS pedals are the better match.
8 Nm is enough for a first rig. It's well above gear- and belt-driven wheels, though below the 10–12 Nm bases at similar money. TRUEFORCE adds high-frequency texture in supported games, and a small OLED screen lets you change settings on the base without a PC. The integrated quick release makes swapping rims simple.
Check two things before buying. The hub is platform-specific: Xbox hubs only work with Xbox-compatible rims, so you can't freely mix PlayStation and Xbox rims. And the 8 Nm is peak torque, so expect to run it below its limit for comfort. It's a sensible, ecosystem-locked buy rather than an open-platform one like Moza or Fanatec.
Questions buyers ask
Does it come with pedals?
No. The bundle is base, wheel hub, round wheel and table clamp. Add Logitech RS pedals, or older G-series pedals via the Logitech G Racing Adapter.
Does it work on PlayStation?
Not this bundle. It's the Xbox/PC version. Logitech sells PlayStation/PC versions, and hubs are platform-specific.
Can I mount it to a desk or a rig?
Both. A table clamp is included for desks, and the base has T-nuts and bolts for mounting on a sim rig.
