The 2023 BlackShark V2 Pro is an exclusively wireless headset: you either plug in the dongle or pair over Bluetooth. Razer's proprietary ultra-low-latency 2.4GHz connection checks multiple channels to avoid cross-bleed, so you'll get a stable signal even when you're surrounded by other wireless kit.
Sound is balanced for gaming, with plenty of bass punch, but whumpy explosions never drown out the rest of the mix. Razer's software replaces EQ frequency bands with words like 'footsteps', 'gunshots' and 'item pickup', so you know what to boost.
Waterloo shun-sweat
The fabric that covers the earcups is breathable, so your lugs won't get too sweaty if you put in a long shift.

It's really not what you expect from a major publisher these days, but Capcom's curious blend of action, real-time strategy and tower defence is one of the most original games you'll play all year.From its colourful costumes to a pastoral message of healing nature, Kunitsu-Gami is proudly Japanese in its inspirations. Your masked warrior is on a mission to help a divine maiden purge a mountain of an evil 'defilement'... but this is no Link/Zelda dynamic: you'll also rely on villagers to help you beat back monsters.

Scott Contessa Voltage eRide 910
