The computer gaming industry has grown considerably over the last few months, with new products being launched on the market, having been designed to deliver new features and essentially improve the gaming experience for gaming fans. On that note, ROCCAT Studios, a company that has been drawing attention to itself with the launch of products such as ROCCAT Kone gaming mouse, has recently announced that it will provide enthusiasts with a new product, namely the ROCCAT Arvo.

Built to compete with the likes of Logitech's G18, Razer's Lycosa, or Saitek's Cyborg, the new ROCCAT Arvo is essentially a keyboard for gamers.

 

One of its main features is a design that has basically excluded the usual arrow keys found on traditional keyboards and integrated them on the numpad. Just above the numpad, there's a key that allows users to switch between normal and gaming mode, the latter enabling them to utilize the aforementioned, illuminated arrow keys. In addition, the company also included two programmable keys, placed to the left and right of these.

 

The minimal design of the keyboard will enable the user to enjoy a high-end gaming experience without having to worry about desktop management. In addition, the product also features three, programmable Thumbster keys, positioned beneath the spacebar. To complement the physical features of the keyboard, the company also introduced the ROCCAT Timer, which will ultimately enhance your gaming experience.

 

If that isn't enough, we should also remind you that the keyboard also features an anti-ghosting capability and comes with a robust metal base, for extra durability. We are not exactly sure when the new gaming keyboard will be made purchasable, as the company is yet to announce the availability and pricing details of said device. Nevertheless, this is an interesting product to take into consideration, providing a new choice for PC gaming enthusiasts.
