Worldwide launch of the Razer X Pokémon partnership
Razer, a leading global lifestyle brand for gamers, has partnered with The Pokémon Company to release a range of gaming accessories inspired by the iconic Pokémon characters. The Razer X Pokémon gaming accessory range, which includes the Razer BlackWidow V4 X mechanical keyboard, the Razer Kraken V4 X RGB headset, the Razer Cobra gaming mouse, and the Razer Gigantus V2 M soft mouse mat, was initially released late in 2024, with a China-exclusive launch. However, the latest development is a global release of the Razer Kraken Kitty V2 – Gengar Edition headset, set to launch worldwide on August 19, 2025, at 8:00 AM Pacific Daylight Time (PDT).
The global launch covers regions including the United States, Latin America, Europe, Australia, and New Zealand. The collaboration includes other Pokémon-themed accessories such as keyboards and mice, and these are also part of the international release plans following the China-exclusive launch.
The designs of the products feature repeated Pikachu, Bulbasaur, Charmander, and Squirtle heads, while the Gengar collection showcases the beloved ghost-type Pokémon. The collection includes the Razer BlackWidow V4 X mechanical keyboard ($169.99/£169.99), the Razer Kraken V4 X RGB headset ($99/£99), a Razer Cobra gaming mouse ($59.99/£59.99), and the Razer Gigantus V2 M soft mouse mat ($29.99/£26.99).
While the Gengar Razer accessory range is available, it can only be purchased from online marketplaces like eBay or Aliexpress, and at an inflated price. It's worth noting that the Gengar Razer accessory range has not been released in the UK market yet.
The partnership between Razer and The Pokémon Company is expected to draw in a large number of gamers, as the collaboration combines Razer's high-quality gaming accessories with the global appeal of the Pokémon franchise. The latest Pokémon X Razer accessory set was released, but the alternative sets, including the one inspired by Pikachu and Eevee, have not yet been released overseas.
In conclusion, the global release of the Gengar-themed Razer X Pokémon gaming accessories marks an exciting expansion for the partnership between Razer and The Pokémon Company. Gamers worldwide can now enjoy high-quality gaming accessories inspired by their favourite Pokémon characters.
