First teased in September when Xbox officially announced keyboard and mouse support was coming for the Xbox One, Razer has taken the wraps off the Razer Turret Xbox keyboard and mouse combo. The wireless keyboard and mouse feature a 2.4GHz wireless connection, up to 40 hours of battery life, and Xbox Dynamic Lighting with Razer Chroma technology.
“We’re extremely proud to team up with Microsoft to bring you this exclusive collaboration. With the Razer Turret for Xbox One, it is now possible to bring the full experience of a keyboard and mouse, with lighting and game integration to Xbox One.”
Razer Co-Founder and CEO Min-Liang Tan
We’ve reviewed quite a few Razer peripherals here at Techaeris and have almost always come across impressed. With Razer’s mechanical switches (rated for up to 80-million keystrokes) in the keyboard and their 5G advanced optical sensor and mechanical mouse switches (rated up to 50-million clicks), we’re looking forward to putting this combo through its paces.
Some of the games that will support the Razer Turret initially include:
- Fortnite
- Minecraft
- Warframe
- X-Morph: Defense
- Warhammer Vermintide 2
- Gears of War 5
- Bomber Crew
- Children of Morta
- DayZ
- Deep Rock Galactic
- Minion Masters
- Moonlighter
- Strange Brigade
Vigor - Warface
- Wargroove
- War Thunder
