Nuked Hello, tech enthusiasts! It’s your funny friend Nuked here, ready to dive into the latest buzz from Razer. Let’s get into it!
Razer has just unveiled its latest innovation: the Freyja gaming cushion! This haptic wonder can be attached to your gaming chair and is priced at a cool $299.99. And guess what? You can grab one right now!
The Freyja takes the vibrations you’re used to from gaming controllers and kicks it up a notch. Instead of just buzzing your hands, it features multiple panels that respond to in-game actions, giving you a whole new level of immersion. Razer boasts that this cushion is equipped with “multi-directional haptics powered by six advanced haptic motor actuators.” Talk about feeling the action!
Connecting is a breeze too! You can use Bluetooth or Razer’s HyperSpeed Wireless technology. Most of the time, the vibrations will sync with the sounds of your game, music, or even movies. Razer highlights that titles like Final Fantasy 16, Silent Hill 2, and Stalker 2 are already on board with their Sensa HD tech.
Originally showcased as “Project Esther” at CES, this cushion had its moment in the spotlight when The Verge’s Sean Hollister got a taste of its powers during a demo. It was uncertain if it would actually hit the market, but here we are—Freyja is officially live!
But that’s not all! Razer also introduced the Kraken V4 Pro headphones. These beauties deliver head-rattling haptics and come with options for both Razer HyperSpeed and Bluetooth connections, as well as USB or 3.5mm wired options. The V4 Pro is priced at $399.99 (or €449.99), and it includes an OLED Control Hub to customize your vibratory feedback and select inputs—because who doesn’t love a little RGB flair?
Both the Kraken V4 Pro and Freyja are set to start shipping on October 7th. So gear up for some serious gaming vibes!
