20 years of making gaming peripherals huh, that’s a long time of dabbling in providing the edge in the competitive scene, ever since online PC gaming popped off. So to celebrate that occasion, Razer has announced the Boomslang 20th Anniversary Edition gaming mouse.
This ambidextrous shape pretty much follows the spirit of the original, but is loaded with modern parts to make it feasible in the ever-booming market. You’re getting the Razer Focus Pro 45K Optical Sensor Gen-2 with up to 45,000 DPI while supporting HyperPolling Wireless tech for a true 8,000 Hz polling rate, plus Gen-4 optical switches rated for 100 million clicks. Even wireless charging is built in through the included Mouse Dock Pro, which mirrors the translucent aesthetic of the mouse to keep that cohesive retro-modern look.
And yes, you’re not fooled into thinking that the face buttons are PU leather-wrapped, and yeah, there’s a full 9-zone Chroma RGB underglow with support for over 300 games, and eight programmable buttons you can tweak through Synapse.
And since this is a collector-focused release, it’s taking the classic route of only offering 1,337 serialized units worldwide. Also, the coveted #1337 unit will have a real signature by CEO Min-Liang Tan himself, given out through one of the community events where fans can share their old Boomslang memories.
