A closer look at Project Obsidian

At SimRacing Expo Frankfurt 2026, we gave the community its first look at Project Obsidian, an all-new Fanatec steering wheel design featuring a large color display, extensive illumination, and SimHub compatibility, due to launch in 2027.

We're developing Obsidian as a ClubSport-level product, aiming to offer a comprehensive feature set while retaining the integration and compatibility expected from the Fanatec ecosystem.

Here's a closer look at the thinking behind the design, how its technology works, and why we've chosen to show it early.

Project Obsidian brings together technologies and design experience developed across generations of Fanatec steering wheels.
