Trying to stay on the competitive edge and provide gaming enthusiasts with the latest technologies for computer peripherals, Razer has recently announced that it has teamed up with Blizzard Entertainment, one of the world's leading developers of gaming applications, to co-develop new gaming peripherals that will be designed for the much-anticipated StarCraft II title. According to the Carlsbad, California-based company, the new upcoming line of Razer-
infused gaming peripherals will include a new mouse, keyboard and headset, specifically built to maximize the gaming experience of StarCraft II gamers.

“It has been a little over a decade since StarCraft first rocked the video game industry and began a legacy that continues to this day,” said Robert “Razerguy” Krakoff, president, Razer USA. “We’re extremely excited to be working with Blizzard Entertainment on the StarCraft II gaming peripherals and gear. The project is in the development phase with a focus on serving up innovative features while offering precision, cutting-edge technology, accuracy, speed and comfort.”

Unfortunately, the announcement regarding the upcoming Razer peripherals leaves much to speculation as far as the technical specifications and features of these new products are concerned. The company, however, promised that users would be provided with a “tournament-grade mouse, keyboard and headset” specifically designed to optimize their gaming experience in the upcoming Blizzard title. In addition, Razer plans to manufacture and roll out an exclusive StarCraft II messenger bag, backpack, and E-Sport Pro Gamer Case, which will be showcased at the BlizzCon expo in California.

“Razer’s high-quality gaming products have long been popular among our global community of players, and we’re pleased to now be collaborating with them directly,” said Paul Sams, chief operating officer of Blizzard Entertainment. “Through this partnership, we’re looking forward to working with Razer to develop a line of peripherals that will complement the fast-paced action of StarCraft II.”
