Razer is joining Xbox’s 25th-anniversary celebrations with three limited-edition peripherals styled after the original console’s translucent-green hardware. The lineup combines nostalgic design details with current-generation features, including a 35K optical sensor, hot-swappable mechanical switches, low-latency wireless audio, and multi-platform compatibility. Preorders are now open, with shipping expected in late October.
Key takeaways
The anniversary collection focuses on premium PC and gaming accessories rather than a new Xbox-made peripheral lineup.
- Basilisk V3 Pro 35K mouse: $169.99, with up to 140 hours of battery life.
- BlackWidow V4 75% keyboard: $199.99, featuring hot-swappable switches and a dedicated Xbox key.
- Hammerhead V3 X HyperSpeed earbuds: $99.99, with 2.4 GHz wireless and Bluetooth 5.3.
- The broader Designed for Xbox collection also includes products from 8BitDo, Backbone, GameSir, and PowerA.
For PC builders and gaming hardware enthusiasts, the Razer products offer familiar flagship platforms with a distinct Xbox-themed finish. The translucent green styling is the collection’s central visual feature, directly recalling the original Xbox and its early-2000s industrial design.
Basilisk V3 Pro targets wireless performance
The Razer Basilisk V3 Pro 35K – Xbox 25 Anniversary Edition is an ergonomic wireless mouse built around Razer’s Focus Pro 35K Optical Sensor Gen-2. It includes 13 customizable controls, RGB lighting through Razer Chroma, and a configurable four-way HyperScroll tilt wheel.
Razer rates the mouse for up to 140 hours of wireless use, giving it the endurance expected from a premium desktop gaming peripheral. Its $169.99 price positions the anniversary model alongside other high-end gaming mice, with the translucent-green shell providing the primary collector-focused distinction.
BlackWidow adds Xbox functionality to a compact keyboard
The BlackWidow V4 75% – Xbox 25 Anniversary Edition uses a compact layout and hot-swappable mechanical switches, allowing enthusiasts to replace switches and tune the board without committing to a fixed configuration. It ships with Razer Orange Tactile Switches Gen-3 and supports per-key Chroma RGB lighting, two-side underglow, and a magnetic leatherette wrist rest.
A dedicated “XBOX” key launches Xbox Game Bar in Windows, giving the keyboard a small but practical platform-specific feature. The board is priced at $199.99 and is aimed at users who want customization without moving to a full-size keyboard.
Hammerhead earbuds support PC, console, and mobile play
The Hammerhead V3 X HyperSpeed – Xbox 25 Anniversary Edition combines 2.4 GHz Razer HyperSpeed Wireless with Bluetooth 5.3. SmartSwitch Dual Wireless allows users to move between compatible wireless devices, making the earbuds suitable for PC gaming, mobile play, and supported Xbox setups.
The earbuds provide up to 35 hours of total battery life, including up to 10 hours from the buds and additional capacity from the charging case. Other listed features include IPX4 water resistance and surround-sound support on Xbox and PC. The reported price is $99.99.
The wider collection expands beyond Razer
Microsoft’s Designed for Xbox 25th Anniversary Collection also includes a translucent-green 8BitDo Ultimate Charging Dock for Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S controllers. Backbone is offering its Pro controller in a blind-box format with Iconic Blue, Bold Orange, and Crystal Clear variants, while GameSir is bringing the X5 Lite to iOS and Android devices.
PowerA rounds out the collection with an Xbox-branded sling bag designed for ROG Xbox Ally and Ally X handhelds. Together, the products extend the anniversary theme across desktop, mobile, controller, and portable gaming hardware.
