Mad Catz was most known for their gaming peripherals, which ranged from third party controllers such as PlayStation and Xbox controllers to Rock Band and Guitar Hero controllers. The company also made accessories like screen protectors, carry bags, and much more. Mad Catz also owned the TRITTON branded gaming headsets and R.A.T. gaming mice lines.

Mad Catz seems to have been in financial trouble for years with revenue declining for some time. Back in 2016, Mad Catz laid off nearly 40 percent of its own workforce and at one point, the company was even notified by the New York Stock Exchange that they would be delisted if the company’s stocks continued to plummet.
Last week, the company was officially delisted.
A source for Kotaku also mentioned the company was “bleeding money for years” and the the Tekken 7 arcade sticks they were developing were simply going to be a re-skin of an already existing product. What’s more, this reworking and reskinning of existing products also included other upcoming products, such as TRITTON headsets.
