It doesn't say so one way or the other at this time on their (Saitek) site.I would call the manufacturer to be sure.Better safe than sorry.I would contact them.Mad Catz, Inc.7480 Mission Valley RoadSuite 101San Diego, CA 92108Phone: (619)683-9830Fax: (619)683-9839

I honestly have no idea, I would contact Saitek. But, I have been in the PC repair business for over 6 years and can't see any reason it would not work. Windows 8 is based on Windows 7 technology and the pedals are a simple plug-and-play USB device, so it 99% should work. I just can't guarantee it without trying it.

I haven't tried it with Windows 8, only Mac 10.9 and Windows 7 (both work fine by the way). If saitek makes a Windows 8 driver I suspect it will work fine. It's an excellent product.

Saitek now shows compatibility with Windows 8 http://www.saitek.com/uk/prod/pedals.html

I'm not sure about hardware. I have heard that Windows 8 does not work well with Windows 8. I purchased a new computer last January and I removed 8 and installed 7. I've had no problems.

No Idea but Saitek doesn't support it, requirements are here: http://www.saitek.com/uk/prod/pedals.html

The Microsoft Force Feedback uses additional Signals not found on standard Joysticks.So the Answer is No.

no,you have to download the drivers from the "Saitek," web site. I can say I bought the "Saitek," system,all of it, my son is 13 and he is flying now.No joke,taxis',takeoff, landing. On his first flight. The teacher pilot was amazed. I recommend "Saitek," with all my heart. The only bad thing is his rudder pedals need to be replaced in less than a year. You can't do anything without them if you intend on being a pilot. Good luck

Yes, Win8 should auto download the driver, or just get it from the saitek site. They are basically the same pedals as the cheaper version with stronger and reshaped parts on it.

Yes this works fine on Win 7 Pro 64 bits. It works fine with IL2 Cliffs Of Dover, Microsoft FSX and FS2004, Micro Prose Falcon 4.0 and Allied Force, UBiSoft Lock On Modern Air Combat.

Yes it should work with windows 8. I still enjoy this sim. It's not as complicated as some other air combat sims although some missions seem impossible to win. Enjoy&#128077;.

Mine are the Pro Flight Rudder Peddle and the construction is all plastic. I didn't know about a "combat" version. They seem sturdy and work fine with my iMac. Did not have to use the included driver disk. Just upgraded to Yosemite and it runs fine as it did with previous versions of the OS. Hope this helps.

Actually it did work on Windows 8. I used Windows 8 Pro edition for a week but then I decided to just downgrade it to Windows 7( Don't like Metro Features). I never had any problems using it though. Just plug n play.LED lights worked fine. What I can recommend is, make sure you update all your drivers and download all necessary files needed for Windows 8 for your motherboard. Also, you might wanna check Saitek/Madcatz website if they have drivers of your keyboard or mouse for Windows 8. Just saying, there might be. but on my case I didn't install any.

I have Windows 7 and it works great. While I cant give a for sure answer I dont see a problem with it working with windows 8 as it only requires a working flight sim as well as a USB port. You can try their website to be 100 percent sure as well.

This switch panel now works in X-Plane 10, all versions of FSX, and in Prepar3d V2.x.The Saitek drivers are DEFINITELY NOT THE BEST.There are specific alternate drivers for X-Plane 10.For FSX and Prepar3d V2.x, use SPAD & FSUIPC to control them.

I have these and LOVE them but according to Saitek's site, no. It appears they are PC only which doesn't surprise me since most of Saitek's stuff is geared toward the PC. You can assemble an entire Cessna cockpit with their products which is a lot of components. I don't know if you can hang a USB hub on a Play Station or if it's capable of handling multiple USB devices as these are designed to go with. My neighbor has a PS3 and I'll see if he'd be willing to plug my pedals in and see if anything happens. He's working today so it may be a day or two but I'll post back the results. Then we'll know for sure, but my bet is still on 'No'. I have these and LOVE them but according to Saitek's site, no.

Not sure if this version works with Windows 8, but there is an updated version of this software that says it's supposed to be compatible with Windows 8: http://www.amazon.com/Driving-Simulation-Road-Rules-Preparation/dp/B00ACOKQTY/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1391038363&sr=8-1&keywords=simuride
