Razer Unveils Freyja, World's First Haptics Gaming Cushion

[Nomad76]

Today at RazerCon 2024, we proudly unveiled the Razer Freyja, the world's first HD Haptics Gaming Cushion. This pioneering device is designed to significantly enhance sensory experiences, transforming gaming into a vividly immersive journey.

Next-Gen Tactile Immersion
At the core of the Razer Freyja is our Razer Sensa HD Haptics technology. This advanced system extends sensory feedback beyond the visual, allowing you to feel every detail of your gameplay. Imagine feeling the adrenaline of a race car's roar or the tense quiet of a stealth mission with such realism that it blurs the lines between game environments and reality.





Integrated Haptic Content for Enhanced Immersion
We have collaborated closely with game studios to integrate tailored haptic feedback directly into games, creating a truly immersive experience. This feature, combined with an ever-growing library of supported content available through our Razer Sensa HD Haptics platform, ensures that your gaming sessions are more realistic than ever.

Dynamic, Multi-Directional Feedback
The Razer Freyja features six high-definition haptic motors arranged to deliver precise, multi-directional feedback. These motors are strategically placed to simulate interactions with vivid detail, enhancing spatial awareness by allowing you to feel the direction, distance, and intensity of in-game events across different areas of your body, drawing you deeper into the game.

Haptic Ecosystem: Enhanced with the Razer Kraken V4 Pro
Pairing the Razer Freyja with the Razer Kraken V4 Pro, which also features Razer Sensa HD Haptics, elevates your sensory experience.

This combination harmonizes haptic feedback across devices, increasing the points of contact from six on the Razer Freyja, to eight with the addition of the Razer Kraken V4 Pro announced today, creating a comprehensive haptic ecosystem that envelops you from head to lower body.

Seamless Connectivity for All Your Entertainment Needs
The Razer Freyja seamlessly integrates into any entertainment setup, not just for gaming but also for movies and music. With both Razer HyperSpeed Wireless on PC and Bluetooth connectivity for Android devices via the Razer Nexus app, it seamlessly integrates into any setup, enhancing every entertainment experience. Whether you're gaming on PC, watching a movie, or listening to music, this versatility ensures that the Razer Freyja is an essential addition to any entertainment platform.

Designed for Universal Compatibility
Beyond its cutting-edge technology, Razer Freyja is designed for practical versatility. Its adjustable strap ensures a secure fit on a wide range of gaming or office chairs, extending its appeal beyond gamers to anyone who enjoys immersive experiences. Easy to install, this universal compatibility means that it's ready to go right out of the box, making it a versatile addition to any gaming setup.

Innovative Quick Release Connection System
The Razer Freyja is equipped with an advanced quick-release connection system, engineered to enhance both the durability and usability of the gaming cushion. This system is designed to safeguard against potential damage from accidental tugs and pulls, ensuring the longevity of both the device and its cables. It also facilitates superior cable management, maintaining the aesthetic integrity of gaming and entertainment setups. This thoughtful innovation underscores Razer's commitment to providing both functional and sophisticated solutions for an enhanced user experience.

Availability
Priced at $299.99 and available from today at Razer.com, RazerStores, and eventually select local resellers worldwide, the Razer Freyja is a revolution in gaming immersion. Paired with the new Razer Kraken V4 Pro, it sets a new benchmark in immersive gaming technology.

Who's gonna try ... sitting on a bottle simulator ?

 

[micropage7]

what about when you know, using it for hot gaming session

 

[ypsylon]

(probably) Warning sticker: Not recommended while being devoured by Tyranid swarm, crushed by Dreadnought PowerFist or stomped by Ork WarBoss.

Just when you thought "GAMING" accessories cannot get any dumber... it should be more targeted at denizens of Pr0nhub.

 

[JWNoctis]

There are already accessories that vibrate and rattle your seat for you. I don't think those are very popular.

How would this be much different?

Might as well go full-on to haptic suits, if they are going after that sort of thing.

$300 hahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahhahahaha
for a cushion

 

[Shihab]

I know that gaming is inherently a wasteful activity, but wtf?

 

[bonehead123]

But...

But.......

BUT.........

Can it help you win when playing Crysis ? (sorry, couldn't resist )

Anyways, you COULD, maybe, perhaps, possibly....... just buy a good quality chair to start with, and they you would never, ever need this worthless gamr boi/gurl toi crapwarez

 

[TheLostSwede]

This must be the world's first levitating seat, so it's actually quite cheap, all things considered...

I like how actual Buttkicker is somehow still cheaper than this razer garbage

 

[AusWolf]

for a cushion

Apparently. What a load of...

 

[FoulOnWhite]

Well I know for sure there are a fair few games on Steam that might be compatible with this

But reeeeally a haptic cushion, what is the world coming to, and it doesn't even have RGB.

 

[Onasi]

I genuinely feel some days like Razer is just a joke that has gone too far and at this point they are just seeing how much stupider can the “made for GamErZZ” products get. Like, this unironically feels like a shit-post.

 

[borny21]

No RGB is a deal breaker for me

 

[WonkoTheSaneUK]

I like how actual Buttkicker is somehow still cheaper than this razer garbage

And it just connects to the subwoofer output of your sound card, instead of requiring game devs to code specifically for it, like this POS.

 

[TheDeeGee]

Now you can feel that stab in the back when you buy that $149,99 AAA game

 

[Octavean]

Cool, I want a hover chair !!!! How'd they get it to levitate like that,.......?,..........
