Razer has unveiled the next generation of its iconic Kraken Kitty series, bringing a new sparkle to the gaming world with the new Kraken Kitty V3 Pro and Kraken Kitty V3 X models. The combination of eye-catching cat ear design, immersive audio and versatile connectivity should appeal not only to gamers, but also to streamers and content creators. With new features such as HyperSpeed Wireless, reactive RGB lighting and an improved microphone, the V3 series redefines the concept of gaming headsets with personality.

  • Three connection modes: HyperSpeed Wireless, Bluetooth 5.3 and USB-A
  • Stream-reactive cat ears with Razer Chroma™ RGB
  • HyperClear Super Wideband microphone for crystal clear voice transmission
  • Two models: Pro for maximum features, X as a lightweight and affordable alternative

Kraken Kitty V3 Pro: More than just an eye-catcher

The Kraken Kitty V3 Pro is the spearhead of the new series and combines striking design with state-of-the-art technology. The cross-platform connectivity is particularly noteworthy: users can switch flexibly between wireless Razer HyperSpeed Wireless for latency-free gaming, Bluetooth 5.3 for mobile use and the classic USB-A cable. This makes the headset suitable for almost any setup – from gaming PCs to consoles and mobile devices.

The most striking feature is undoubtedly the iconic cat ears equipped with Razer Chroma RGB. Not only do they respond to games and streaming events, but they can also be customized with 16.8 million colors and effects. This blend of functionality and expression makes the headset a real statement piece – whether you’re streaming or on the go.

The V3 Pro is also technically impressive: the Razer™ TriForce Titanium 40 mm drivers provide detailed sound with clear highs, smooth mids and powerful bass. The whole thing is complemented by THX Spatial Audio, which offers an immersive 7.1 surround experience. For voice quality, a retractable HyperClear Super Wideband microphone is used, which transmits voices particularly naturally with an extended frequency range. In combination with the soft memory foam ear pads in protein leatherette design, the headset remains comfortable even during long sessions.

Kraken Kitty V3 X: Lightweight with style

While the Pro model offers the full range of features, the Kraken Kitty V3 X is aimed at users who are looking for a lightweight, stylish headset for everyday use. At just 270 grams, it is significantly lighter, but still delivers a convincing sound. Razer also relies on TriForce drivers and 7.1 surround sound here, which means that the X model also offers an immersive listening experience.

Instead of wireless freedom, the Kraken Kitty V3 X relies on a wired solution with a 3.5 mm connection. This makes it particularly versatile, as it not only works on a PC, but also with consoles, smartphones and other devices. Clear communication is ensured by a HyperClear cardioid microphone, which reduces ambient noise and emphasizes the voice.

Visually, the X model remains true to the iconic Kitty design, but offers a slimmer and more minimalist version of the V3 Pro. This makes it particularly suitable for gamers who value comfort and a striking design without needing all the high-end features.

Conclusion

With the Kraken Kitty V3 series, Razer is bringing a breath of fresh air to the gaming audio scene. The V3 Pro is clearly aimed at power users and creators who want maximum flexibility, performance and eye-catching style. The V3 X, on the other hand, offers a lighter and more affordable alternative that does not compromise on good audio and iconic design.

Both models are available now: the Razer Kraken Kitty V3 Pro for €199.99 and the Razer Kraken Kitty V3 X for €69.99 – both via Razer.com, in RazerStores and at selected retailers. A headset that not only takes sound to a new level, but also style.
