Razer, the global lifestyle brand for gamers, has announced the Razer Kraken Tournament Edition headset.

Razer Co-Founder and CEO Min-Liang Tan said: “Since founding Razer, we’ve pushed to make products with unprecedented technology to give gamers the greatest advantage possible. At the same time, our long history working with the world’s top esports athletes gives us unique insight into what features work best and should be conserved or finetuned.”

The Razer Kraken Tournament Edition is the world’s first gaming headset to support THX Spatial Audio. THX Spatial Audio creates realistic depth and immersion by simulating 360° sound with pinpoint accuracy. This technology combined with custom-tuned 50 mm drivers provide clarity, and a punchy bass.

The headset also delivers full audio controls via a USB audio controller. The controller allows on-the-fly bass level adjustment, and a customised mix between game and team chat volume through Game/Chat Balance. 

The headset has been designed with cooling gel-infused ear cushions, hidden eyewear channels, and an improved ultra-soft padded headband for comfort.

With its 3.5 mm combo audio jack, the Razer Kraken Tournament Edition is also cross-platform compatible, working with the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and mobile devices.
