Verizon Wireless recently provided details on the availability and cost of the Moto Gamepad Mod for the Z2 Play and Z2 Force smartphones.
The Gamepad, available for preorder via Verizon’s web site, will ship by August 25.
Verizon said the Gamepad will be available online and in stores. The phone snaps in magnetically via the Mod connector. The pad features a standard set of gaming buttons and joysticks positioned on either side of the screen, in addition to a 3.5mm headset jack and USB-C port for charging.
The Gamepad includes its own 1.035mAh battery, so it won’t suck juice from the phone and in fact can provide the Z handset with up to 8 hours of gaming time.
The Gamepad will cost gaming enthusiasts $79.99. The Moto Gamepad Mod is a Verizon exclusive, as is the new JBL SoundBoost 2 speaker Mod.
