Razer x Pokémon Espeon & Umbreon Collection Announced

Razer has teamed up with Pokémon to launch a new collection featuring Espeon and Umbreon. This collaboration brings gaming gear inspired by the mystical aesthetics of these beloved Pokémon, with designs evoking a starry sky shrouded in mist.

What's Dropping

The Razer | Espeon & Umbreon Collection includes a range of devices designed to transform your gaming setup into a battle station reminiscent of a starry night. The collection splits its design themes between the Eevee evolutions Espeon and Umbreon, integrating custom artwork and Razer Chroma RGB lighting into existing peripheral designs. Four distinct products anchor the collaborative capsule, targeting PC gaming, streaming, and everyday workloads.

The audio aspect is handled by the Razer Kraken V4 X – Espeon & Umbreon Edition, a wired gaming headset featuring custom earcup cushions and integrated Chroma RGB lighting. For the keyboard, the collection introduces the Razer Ornata V3 Tenkeyless – Espeon & Umbreon Edition. This low-profile keyboard utilises mecha-membrane switches and features a magnetic wrist rest.

Tracking hardware consists of the Razer Cobra – Espeon & Umbreon Edition, a lightweight wired gaming mouse built with optical switches and a Chroma RGB underglow. This is paired with the Razer Gigantus V2 – Medium – Espeon & Umbreon Edition, a soft mouse mat featuring a textured micro-weave cloth surface.

When & Where

The collection is now available in its entirety for £319.96. However, each piece can be acquired separately: the Razer Kraken V4 X costs £109.99/$109.99/€119.99, and the Razer Ornata V3 Tenkeyless costs £119.99/$119.99/€149.99. Lastly, the Razer Cobra goes for £59.99/$59.99/€79.99 and the Razer Gigantus V2 for $29.99. The collection was released to commemorate Pokémon's 30th anniversary. It is available globally across digital storefronts, brick-and-mortar RazerStores, and select retail partners.

The Play

For collectors and Pokémon enthusiasts, this collaboration is a must-have. Given Razer’s history with limited-edition drops, securing these items early could be crucial. Set up notifications on Razer’s site and prepare for a quick checkout. If you’re a reseller, previous Razer collaborations have shown decent resale value, but without specifics, it’s hard to predict the flip potential.

Is It Worth It?

For fans, this collection offers a unique blend of gaming functionality and Pokémon nostalgia, making it a worthwhile addition to any setup. Resellers should monitor the market closely once details emerge, as Razer’s Pokémon collaborations have historically performed well in secondary markets. However, without confirmed pricing or product details, it’s best to approach this drop with cautious optimism.
