Immersive gaming seat: Feel each in-game blast for $299 by Razer
Introducing the brand spankin' new Razer Sensa HD Haptics gear, set to dominate your gaming sessions by June 10. Right now, there's only two devices blessed with this immersive tech – the Razer Freyja haptic gaming cushion and the Razer Kraken V4 Pro gaming headset. Stick the former on your gaming chair, and you'll be gifted an all-encompassing tactile sensation that'll make you feel like you're living the game. Slap on the latter, and your games' sounds transform into jaw-dropping, tangible sensations directly in your skull.
Unlock the haptic magic by installing Razer Synapse 4 control software and ensuring your game Title plays ball—luckily, 15 do, including Hogwarts Legacy, Sniper Elite: Resistance, Frostpunk 2, and SnowRunner. Another 92 games join the party via SimHub, including fan-favorites like American Truck Simulator, Forza Horizon 5, Microsoft Flight Simulator 24, and Project Cars 3, along with other standouts like PC Building Simulator 2[4] and more. Expect the Sensa HD Haptics family to grow, with titles like Dune: Awakening rumored to hop on board[3].
Razer gets a gold star for not forcing you to toss your beloved gaming chair and replace it with an expensive vibrating model to enjoy the tech. You'll simply slot the Freyja on top, and its long cable hooks it up to power. Take caution when rising or moving the chair, or risk unplugging the beast! Thankfully, the Freyja connects to your computer via Bluetooth, lowering the risk of unintentional disconnection[2].
The Razer Freyja HD Haptic gaming chair cushion sets you back $299.99 on Amazon, while the Razer Kraken V4 Pro gaming headset rings in at a steeper $399.99 (but it's currently enjoying a sale at $352.99). A smidge pricey for most folks, but if you're rocking a gaming PC that costs upwards of $5,000, it might be the cherry on top of your rig.
