Razer And Microsoft Join Forces To Create Xbox One Accessories

This week saw legendary peripherals manufacturer Razer reveal that they would begin creating new products for the recently released Microsoft Xbox One. The new deal that was struck with Microsoft will see them continue their trend of high quality 3rd party controllers, something that has been missing from the new range of consoles since their release.

Having created some of the most popular aftermarket controllers and headsets for the last generation of consoles, Razer no doubt have something pretty special planned. Their Sabertooth / Onza controllers proved popular with gamers and eSports teams, and of course the Atrox Arcade Stick is one of the best fighting sticks on the market that has proved a great choice both in and out of tournaments. A suite of products for the Xbox One, including a controller, arcade stick and more, will be made by Razer.

“Razer is dedicated to improving the overall experience from the games themselves to the player, be it console or PC,” says Min-Liang Tan, Razer co-founder, CEO and creative director. “By working with a company as prestigious as Microsoft on a system as sought-after as the Xbox One, we’ll be able to accomplish just that. This is an exciting time for the hundreds of millions of gamers all over the world, and we’re thrilled to be a part of it.”

Products, pricing and release dates will be unveiled in the coming weeks.

Thank you Razer for providing us with this information.

As a child still in my 30's (but not for long), I spend my day combining my love of music and movies with a life-long passion for gaming, from arcade classics and retro consoles to the latest high-end PC and console games. So it's no wonder I write about tech and test the latest hardware while I enjoy my hobbies!
