Razer Teams with Blizzard on StarCraft-Themed Accessories

A mouse, keyboard and headset will be among the company's upcoming StarCraft-inspired peripherals.

Blizzard’s much-anticipated sequel to StarCraft may still be stamped with the company’s vague “when it’s done” release date, but that hasn’t stopped promotions for the new gear from kicking into high gear. On Tuesday, famed mouse-maker Razer announced that it would roll out a new line of StarCraft-branded peripherals especially for the game.

The company plans to release a mouse, keyboard and headset both inspired by StarCraft II, and designed especially to be used with the game. It will also market a StarCraft II messenger bag, backpack, and gamer case.

“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,” said Razer president Robert Krakoff, in a press release. According to Razer, that will include exclusive and unique features catering to the StarCraft community (a Zerg-rush button, perhaps?).

Razer’s messenger back will be showcased at the upcoming BlizzCon gaming convention in Anaheim, but in the true spirit of StarCraft II, firm release dates have not yet been announced.
