LOS ANGELES (E3 2014) Razer, the world leader in entertainment devices and software, today announced the Razer Kraken Neon Series, a special edition of the brands best-selling Kraken gaming headsets and headphones, available in six new fluorescent colors.

Rzr_KrakenProNeon_03Like its forerunners, including classic green and black Razer Kraken and Kraken Pros, Razer Kraken E-Panda Hooligan headphones and the Razer Kraken Forged Edition headphones, the Kraken Neon Series is outfitted with powerful drivers that pack deep and heavy bass tones to compliment acutely tuned mids and highs optimized for gaming and music listening.

A Pro version of the Razer Kraken Neon Series will feature a fully retractable microphone built into the headset for seamless connectivity to smart phones, tablets and other voice-enabled devices.

Additionally, the Razer Kraken Neon Series marks the first time that Razer has released a full colorway for a product. The wide array of color choices can be matched with apparel, footwear and accessories.

Our community has been asking for color options in our product lines and the Razer Kraken Neon Series offers just that, says Min-Liang Tan, Razer co-founder, CEO and creative director. We chose our most popular family of headsets and headphones for special stylization and are releasing them just in time for the summer months. The six colors give way to a multitude of options. I cant wait to see the photos our fans send us.

Gamers can further personalize their listening experience with Razers industry-leading gaming software, including Razer Surround Pro.
