Razer is one of the most well-known brands in gaming and their gaming mice are some of the most popular on the market. The Naga is one of the original MMO type mice and a fan favorite by many even those outside the MMO community for those who love programmable macros.
This is Razers latest update on the model with two variants are both wireless with the Pro featuring USB-C Charging with a rechargable battery while the Hyperspeed uses a classic AA Battery.
Razer, the leading global lifestyle brand for gamers, today announced the new Razer Naga V2 Pro and Naga V2 HyperSpeed, the latest in Razer’s genre-busting MMO and battle-royale mice. Designed primarily for MMOs, with 3 interchangeable side plates on the Naga V2 Pro, and a wealth of new features in both mice, the new Naga V2 Pro and Naga HyperSpeed signal the return of Razer’s most adaptable mouse, now better than ever.
Launched in 2009, the original Naga created the MMO mouse category, setting new standards for functionality and control with its groundbreaking multi-button side panel, immediately becoming the world’s bestselling MMO mouse. The new Naga V2 Pro continues this legacy of excellence, with a series of upgrades and improvements that retain the shape and feel of the Naga series that players love, while focusing on the features that matter most to MMO players.
Boasting 3 interchangeable side plates, 19+1 remappable buttons, 22 programmable controls, the new Razer HyperScroll Pro Wheel, Razer HyperSpeed Wireless, Razer Focus Pro 30K Optical Sensor, Razer Optical Mouse Switches Gen-3, and a range of charging and connectivity options, the Naga V2 Pro is a total upgrade on the Naga Pro, ready to meet the needs of today’s gamers in every genre of game.
“The Razer Naga line of mice are widely regarded as the kings of MMO games thanks to their modularity, customizability and flexibility,” said Chris Mitchell, Head of Razer’s PC Gaming Division. “Sporting more scrollwheel customization options, wireless charging compatibility, and a lot of other upgrades, the Razer Naga V2 Pro is set to continue the legacy of the Razer MMO mouse line.”
The new Razer HyperScroll Pro Wheel brings near-unlimited customization to the Naga V2 Pro, with intelligent settings to customize scrolling action and feel. Users can toggle through 6 modes of scroll wheel settings, including a user-customized mode, all available within Razer Synapse 3 and accessible on the fly. With a Standard mode for more typical in-game selections, Distinct mode for easy, definitive scrolling and an Ultrafine mode for the highest number of inputs, the Naga V2 Pro has a further 2 presets; Adaptive scrolling, to give less resistance the faster the wheel is scrolled, and Free Scrolling for always-on accelerated scrolling.
The final option for the Razer HyperScroll Pro Wheel is its Custom mode, where a user can make near infinite adjustments to get the perfect scroll feel and function tuned to their liking. Through Razer Synapse 3, users can adjust the scroll tension, number of steps and customize the force curve between steps, setting everything from a smooth, free spinning wheel through to a positive step wheel with as few as 8 distinct steps, or take it all the way to 96 steps – and then adjust how the tick between each step feels. These levels of customization allow users to minutely adjust the HyperScroll Pro Wheel function and tactile feedback, giving them the perfect feel and action they require.
