Accessory manufacturer Roccat has expanded its line-up for peripherals: With the gaming mice Kone Pro and Kone Pro Air, two classics have been completely overhauled. In addition, two gaming keyboards with RGB lighting appear with the “Pyro” and “Magma” models. While the mice are already available, the two keyboards will appear at the end of May.


Since the introduction of Roccat's Aimo lighting system in 2017, the peripheral manufacturer, which is now part of Turtle Beach, has concentrated on making PC gaming equipment as powerful as possible and at the same time beautifully luminous. Now Roccat is adding new models of gaming mice and gaming keyboards. 

Gaming mice: Kone Air and Kone Air Pro available

Roccat's "Kone" mouse model is already around 14 years old. Apparently the time had come to relaunch the classic. The two gaming mice with the model names Kone Pro and Kone Pro Air are now commercially available. Roccat said so. 

The new mice combine Roccat's “Titan Optical Switch“Technology – which, according to the manufacturer, registers mouse clicks up to 100x faster than standard gaming mice. The “shape” that is characteristic of the Kone mice has been retained. “Roccat has put more than a decade of research into hand sizes, grip types and ergonomics to make the Kone Pro feel perfectly at home in the hands of gamers,” said the Hamburg-based manufacturer.

The Roccat Kone Pro's refined design seeks to strike a balance between the fan-favorite features of the earlier Kone Aimo and the performance of the Kone Pure. The Kone Pro mice are characterized by a high-quality click feel, a faster response time than mechanical switches and a long service life. Also included is the "Titan Wheel Pro" — a new machined aluminum mouse wheel with a "precise scroll and sensory click feel," according to Roccat. Heat-treated mouse feet made of pure PTFE should ensure good gliding. And: The mice have also slimmed down a lot in terms of weight. With a weight of 66 grams and 75 grams respectively, the Kone Pro and Kone Pro Air are among the particularly light gaming mice.

The Kone Pro series uses Roccat's optical owl-eye sensor with 19K dpi, a high-performance sensor that precisely implements mouse movements. The Kone Pro's phantom flex cable is designed to create a feeling of unrestricted freedom of movement. The wireless Kone Pro Air, with dual connectivity via Bluetooth or 2,4 Ghz, provides even more freedom. The Kone Pro Air's quick charge feature provides up to five hours of playtime after just 10 minutes of charging, while the Stellar Wireless technology provides over 100 hours of uninterrupted playtime on a full charge.

Both models also offer Aimo RGB lighting in 16,8 million colors and can synchronize with other Aimo-enabled products to create lighting effects across multiple devices.

The mice of the Kone Pro series are available in the colors Arctic White and Ash Black. The wired Kone Pro is available at an RRP of 79,99 euros, the wireless Kone Pro Air is available at an RRP of 129,99 euros.

New gaming keyboards provide "fiery effects"

The two new gaming keyboards from Roccat go by the names "Pyro" and "Magma". Both models will be available in stores from the end of May, but can already be pre-ordered. First of all, the “Magma Membrane RGB Keyboard” is striking. Why? Because it lights up in its entirety: The fully illuminated top of the Magma is the stage for Roccat's Aimo RGB lighting system. The light spectacle is available for a moderate price: the accessory manufacturer's suggested retail price is EUR 59,99.

In addition, a new mechanical gaming keyboard appears with the Pyro. "PC enthusiasts looking for a new mechanical gaming keyboard should look no further than the Pyro, one of the most feature-rich mechanical gaming keyboards available for an MSRP of $99,99," announced Roccat.

Despite many differences, the new gaming keyboards also have something in common. Magma and Pyro are both equipped with removable palm rests and media controls. And they have Roccat's Easy-Shift [+] technology, which enables the gamer to assign a second function to the buttons around WSAD.

"With Magma, we are redefining membrane keyboards and once again pushing the boundaries of keyboard lighting," said René Korte, ROCCAT founder and general manager for PC peripherals at Turtle Beach. "With the Vulcan series and that there
With the transparent key shell we used, we had already created an impressive RGB experience. With the Magma, we made the entire top transparent to unlock the full potential of the Aimo lighting. You won't find anything like it on the market. In addition, the keyboard is very affordable and perfect for gamers who want to show off their RGB gaming setup.”

The new "Magma Membrane RGB Gaming Keyboard" creates a light show in 16,8 million RGB colors with a semi-transparent top and a five-zone backlight with ten LEDs. The "Magma" is also equipped with quiet rubber dome keys. The so-called advanced anti-ghosting ensures that gamers can press the most frequently used keys at the same time in the heat of the moment.

The Roccat Pyro, on the other hand, is a mechanical gaming keyboard priced under 100 euros. "The new design of the Pyro is reinforced by a high-quality brushed metal top and offers gamers a slim, robust and elegant mechanical keyboard," says Roccat about the design. The Pyro uses TTC's linear (red) switches with a 2,0mm actuation point, 45g of actuation force, and 4,0mm of actuation travel for a keystroke that feels precise as well as reliable. According to the manufacturer, the Pyro's switches have been tested for a service life of 50 million keystrokes.

The Magma membrane gaming keyboard and the Pyro mechanical gaming keyboard will be available from participating retailers worldwide starting May 30th.
