We're starting off with the biggest and the best. Speaking of which, be sure to check out the latest Microsoft Flight Simulator prices if you're after the best game to go with your new joystick. It's worth noting that stock for most joysticks on PC is incredibly scarce right now, due in part to a certain flight sim's popularity. So without further ado, let's take a look at the best joysticks and best flight sticks for gaming on PC, PS4, and Xbox One.

Finally, the Hori HOTAS we have here is a competitive product that is arguably the best looking of the lot if you like a matte black finish. If you've been living under a rock and are unfamiliar with the brand, Logitech is one of the most well-renowned names out there when it comes to gaming peripherals, so you can be sure you're getting a quality product. Both the HOTAS X and HOTAS 4 are entry-level flight sticks with minor differences, which we'll get onto below, while the HOTAS Warthog on the other hand is an absolute monster that'll set you back a pretty penny. We have five models on this list, three of which are from Thrustmaster, who are the flagship manufacturer in this department. Stock has been hard to come by lately, but hopefully, we'll get some discounts in the Prime Day laptop deals. All of these products are HOTAS - Hands-On Throttle and Stick, if you're unfamiliar with the pilot lingo - which is the industry standard. These all provide another element to games like Star Wars Squadrons and Microsoft Flight Simulator that either a controller or keyboard and mouse cannot offer.
