SteelSeries, the worldwide leader in gaming and esports peripherals, today unveiled its newest franchise and the first microphone solution that's been purposely built for gamers. With over 20 years of design and engineering expertise dedicated to solving problems for gamers and making every gaming session glorious, the #1 premium gaming audio brand introduces Alias microphones powered by Sonar for Streamers. Now "Gamers Finally Have a Voice."

When gamers stream, they get animated, move around their gaming setups and battlestations, shout with unbridled excitement and enthusiasm, narrate gameplay, and tell stories with style and personality. The current offering of microphones on the market does not address these needs and doesn't allow users to be dynamic, while Alias microphones allow for the freedom and true range that gamers seek. Others have introduced microphone solutions that are 4-in-1, but they are a master of none.

It's a historic day for SteelSeries, as we pave our way into a new gaming peripheral category. Join us. The days of off-the-shelf generic mics rebranded for gaming are done. It's finally here: a microphone fully dedicated to gaming and streaming. The dedication we have for our audience inspired us to create a product that pushes content creators and streamers—an ever-increasing portion of gaming enthusiasts—to even greater heights. Sound is an integral element of connecting with your viewers, and no matter how good your stream layout looks, bad audio will short-circuit your engagement.

It's time to examine your current setup. The reasons to switch to Alias are many, but we sure have a big one: we believe bigger is better. With a 1" premium capsule that's 3x bigger than competitors', your voice is captured with more fidelity, and it gives you the positioning freedom you need to express yourself. Alias is powered by Sonar: your all-in-1 sound studio for controlling all aspects of livestream audio production. Multiple apps multiply the mess and creates points of failure. With Sonar you get a single app that helps you easily mix and route the sound of your apps and personalize the sound of your mic with ClearCast AI noise cancellation and a powerful 10-band equalizer. No more hiding that pretty face behind the mic. The deep, rich vocals is but one reason to go with Alias. Let's dive in.

Design also influences culture, so it's only fitting that the design behind the Limited-Edition Ghost Collection further sheds light on the style and innovation created for those who live a "gaming lifestyle."

A sleek sculptured shell is fused with a mesh pattern and a distinct ghost-like colorway to deliver a scary fast, ultra-lightweight, high-performance mouse, while an esports form factor keyboard shines bright through a translucent colorway.

Our firmware engineers never cease to find ways to improve our keyboards. Every single Apex Pro keyboard receives a major upgrade. SteelSeries is at the forefront of innovative gaming keyboards that elevate your skills even further. Go beyond what you think you can do with the fastest keyboard in the world. We are thrilled to announce a new feature called Rapid Trigger that is bound to shift the odds in your favor ever more.

What is Rapid Trigger?
Most switches have a set actuation point—that is, when a key is depressed, a point where it will activate. How deep you need to press it depends on your settings. As long as you keep your finger on that key, it will keep inputting it, as long as it is below the actuation point, let's say 2 mm. If your finger lifts the key above that threshold, the switch will "reset" and release the keypress. You can see this in action if you press a key down fully and lightly bounce your finger up and down. If you are still pressing it within the actuation point, it will continue inputting whatever you pressed, even though you lifted your finger a bit. Rapid Trigger takes this to the next level.
