View Article on IGN

Razer’s new lineup of electronics are here and with the holidays coming up, it’s the perfect time to cover what Razer has to offer for those PlayStation, Xbox, or PC fans in your life. Whether it’s their customizable Wolverine V2 Pro controller or their Huntsman V3 Pro keyboard, the time is now to treat yourself or that special someone in your life.

PlayStation Players

Wolverine V2 Pro for PS5

PlayStation 5’s DualSense and DualSense Edge are great controllers, but sometimes you want something that fits your gaming style. That’s where the Razer Wolverine V2 Pro comes in.

Alongside Razer’s 8-way Microswitch D-Pad and Mecha-Tactile action buttons, the Wolverine V2 Pro allows you to adjust the pull distance of the RT and LT triggers with their brand-new HyperTriggers. Shorter trigger pulls are great for shooters (shaving milliseconds of time off your trigger pull to take down an enemy) and longer trigger pulls for better control in racing games and more.

And for the first time in Razer’s Wolverine line, a new component has been introduced to the HyperTrigger. Triggers on the Wolverine V2 Pro now actuate similarly to how you would actuate on Razer’s gaming mice.

Customization is the name of the game with the Wolverine V2 Pro, featuring two additional bumpers on top of the controller and four backpaddles on the back. Assign those extra buttons through the Razer Controller app to whatever your heart desires. Customize each button, adjust the deadzones, and personalize your lighting effects from the Razer Chroma RGB. It also features interchangeable thumbstick caps to suit your comfort. The controller also features Razer HyperSpeed wireless which delivers a 2.4 GHz wireless connection that promises seamless, low-latency performance.

As with many of the latest controllers, the Wolverine V2 Pro continues to improve as Razer is committed to updating the firmware, making it even greater than it is now.

Hammerhead HyperSpeed Earbuds for PS5

Sound is one of the most important parts of gaming. Immersing you further into the worlds of games like Spider-Man 2, The Last of Us, and Baldur’s Gate 3. It also gives you a competitive advantage in multiplayer games like Call of Duty, alerting you of your enemies’ footsteps.

With Razer’s Hammerhead HyperSpeed Earbuds, you’ll feel like you’re actually in the game. These fully wireless earbuds feature low latency performance and Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) that provides a distraction-free audio experience like no other. For those who love jumping online with friends, the Dual Environmental Noise Canceling (ENC) microphones keep your voice as clear as the sound coming into your ears.

With up to 30 hours of battery life with the charging case, the Hammerhead HyperSpeed Earbud delivers 16.8 million colors and a suite of effects to choose from, showcasing your personal style.

PC

Huntsman V3 Pro Keyboard

It is hard to overstate the importance of a keyboard. Enter the Razer Huntsman V3 Pro, which is Razer’s all-new Analog Optical Switch Gen-2 keyboard that features Rapid Trigger for ultra-fast repeated inputs, a full 0.1 – 4.0 mm adjustable actuation range, and an impressive 100-million keystroke lifespan.

The Huntsman V3 Pro line, in particular, is designed for competitive esports athletes. Gamers can quickly adjust the actuation and Rapid Trigger sensitivity on the fly, as settings are stored on the keyboard. The multi-function digital dial and dedicated control buttons let you adjust volume, switch settings, media, and custom macros.

The textured Doubleshot PBT keycaps on the Huntsman V3 Pro are shine-resistant and fade-proof, meaning they’ll last much longer than your standard keycaps. Furthermore, with Razer Chroma RGB and Per-Key RGB, you’ll make your keyboard glow exactly how you want. As a bonus, it also has a magnetic firm leatherette wrist rest, designed to seamlessly snap to the keyboard.

Viper V3 HyperSpeed

Made with and trusted by esport pros around the world, the Viper V3 HyperSpeed mouse’s 82g lightweight design distills the learnings from previous Viper releases into a new shape anchored in functionality and comfort.

Fully optimized for claw or fingertip grip styles, the Viper V3 Hyperspeed is comfortable to hold and can last up to 280 hours of battery life with the included AA Alkaline battery. Outfitted with Razer’s flagship Focus Pro 30K Optical Sensor, the mouse also ensures a finer degree of accuracy with a set of intelligent functions for refined customization and control, while maintaining flawless tracking on a wider variety of surfaces including glass.

All of the previous benefits are coupled with Razer’s HyperSpeed Wireless technology, allowing gamers to experience high-end precision and responsiveness with the same technologies found in Razer’s top-tier wireless mice. Furthermore, you can upgrade to a true 8000 Hz wireless polling rate with the Razer HyperPolling Wireless Dongle (cable and dongle sold separately) if you demand even more performance from your gear.

Xbox Players

Wolverine V2 Chroma for Xbox

Much like the Razer Wolverine V2 Pro for the PS5, the Razer Wolverine V2 Chroma for Xbox is built to complement your personal gameplay experience.

The Wolverine V2 Chroma for Xbox has Mecha-Tactile Action Buttons and a D-Pad that reduces the actuation distance by 35% (compared to an average controller) and a 3-million tap life cycle. There are also two additional bumpers at the top and four back paddles on the back that can be assigned to any action you desire, including switching weapons, reloading, jumping, shooting, sliding, and so much more.

The customization doesn’t end there. Swap out the thumbsticks as needed, change the function of any other button, adjust the pull distance of the trigger stop-switches, and light up the controller as your heart desires with the Razer Chroma RGB via the Razer Controller Setup for Xbox app. With over 16.8 million color options, you can build your perfect color combo.

Hammerhead HyperSpeed Earbuds for Xbox

The Hammerhead HyperSpeed Earbuds for Xbox provides all the benefits of the earbuds for PS5, but this time in black instead of white and with a charging case that is black and green to match Microsoft’s flagship console.
