SAN DIEGO, Sept. 22, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- ROCCAT,
Turtle Beach's (Nasdaq: HEAR) Hamburg,
Germany-based PC peripheral brand, today revealed its
all-new Titan Optical Switch and three new variants
of its award-winning Vulcan keyboard series.
ROCCAT unveiled its first Vulcan mechanical keyboard
featuring the Titan Tactile Switch in 2018, followed by the
Titan Speed Switch in 2019, and the sleek-looking keyboard
series has gone on to secure a variety of editorial
accolades and high praise from PC gamers. Delivering a true
competitive advantage, ROCCAT's new Pro models with
Titan Optical Switches offer PC gamers a keyboard 40
times faster than classic mechanical switches, with a lifespan that
lasts twice as long. The Vulcan Pro is the
full-size keyboard with Titan Optical Switches, while
the Vulcan TKL Pro is a tenkeyless
version with a smaller footprint. Additionally, ROCCAT will be
launching the new Vulcan TKL keyboard, which is
a tenkeyless version of its full-size Vulcan mechanical
keyboard design. The Vulcan TKL will be available
with both Titan Speed and Titan Tactile Switch
options.
ROCCAT's full-size Vulcan Pro and the more compact
Vulcan TKL Pro keyboards featuring the Titan
Optical Switches will be available at participating
retailers worldwide on Oct. 30,
2020 for MSRPs of $199.99
and $159.99, respectively. The
Vulcan TKL mechanical gaming keyboard with Titan
Tactile Switches or Titan Speed Switches will be
released in North America on
October 4, 2020 for a MSRP of
$129.99, and will be available
at participating retailers across Europe on October
30, 2020.
"Our Vulcan series keyboards are already a big success
for ROCCAT, so naturally we're thrilled to add TKL versions as well
as introduce our Titan Optical Switch technology for
an even faster competitive edge," said Rene
Korte, General Manager of PC Products at Turtle Beach. "Two
years ago, we introduced the first Vulcan featuring our own
unique Titan Tactile Switch, followed by the
faster Titan Speed Switch. The new Vulcan
Pro models with the Titan Optical Switch
gives gamers an even faster option, and sometimes that's all that
matters when you're playing for the title."
Additional details on the latest additions to ROCCAT's
award-winning Vulcan series PC gaming keyboards below.
Vulcan Pro
The Vulcan Pro
features the same sleek, award-winning design as the Vulcan
121 and comes with ROCCAT's all-new Titan Optical
Switches. The Titan Optical Switch replaces
the physical contact of a regular mechanical switch with a beam of
light that gets interrupted by the optical switch once the key is
pressed. This leads to a more responsive reaction time that
registers keystrokes 40 times faster than a classic mechanical
switch, as well as a longer lifetime expectancy of 100 million
clicks compared to 50 million clicks for a mechanical switch. The
Vulcan Pro, comes with an Ash Black
anodized aluminum plate, connects via a wired USB-A connector, and
offers low-profile ergonomic key caps. The Vulcan Pro
is part of ROCCAT's AIMO-enabled family of products
offering a vivid RGB light scheme, and it also comes with a
removable magnetic wrist-rest. The Vulcan Pro will be
available for a MSRP of $199.99/199.99€.
Vulcan TKL Pro
With many core and professional
gamers preferring a more compact keyboard when they play, the
Vulcan TKL Pro is the tenkeyless version of the
Vulcan Pro, achieved by reducing the size of the
chassis as well as removing the number pad. The TKL
Pro comes with a removable USB-C cable, and like the other
Vulcan variants it offers a game mode allowing gamers to set
macros for their favorite games. The Vulcan TKL Pro
also supports the AIMO lighting system, making it the
perfect companion for the other products in the AIMO
range. The Vulcan TKL Pro will be available for a
MSRP of $159.99/159.99€.
Vulcan TKL
The Vulcan TKL
mechanical keyboard will also be available in two versions; one
with the Titan Tactile Switch, and one with the
Titan Speed Switch. Both versions of the Vulcan
TKL come with a removable USB-C cable. The Vulcan
TKL keyboards will be available for a MSRP of $129.99/129.99€.
