LOGI PLAY, PARIS FRANCE - SHANGHAI, CHINA — September 17th, 2024 —Logitech G,
a brand of Logitech (SIX: LOGN) (NASDAQ: LOGI), announced at Logi PLAY the launch
of its latest PRO Series gear, designed to meet the demands of elite esports athletes
and competitive gamers. The new lineup includes the PRO X SUPERLIGHT 2 DEX
Gaming Mouse, the PRO 2 LIGHTSPEED Gaming Mouse, and the PRO X TKL RAPID
Gaming Keyboard.
“We pour a lot into our PRO series products, focusing on innovations that deliver
immediate performance gains by forming deep partnerships with pros to meet their
exacting needs. This research and design practice not only allows us to identify and
create product breakthroughs but also serves as a performance test bed that
ultimately serves the entire gaming community,” said Chris Pate, Head of PRO Series
Product Development at Logitech G. “With our new PRO X SUPERLIGHT 2 DEX, our new
ambidextrous PRO 2 LIGHTSPEED, and our first magnetic analog rapid trigger
keyboard, the PRO X TKL RAPID, we’re meeting gamers’ needs for the highest
performance gear possible”
Over the past three years, Logitech G has worked with hundreds of professional
esports athletes to create the next generation of PRO Series gear. These new
products, combined with the current line-up of PRO Series gear, offer players the
shape, playstyle, and functionality choices they need to find the best fit for them.
Players can also feel confident that as a PRO Series product, each guarantees the
highest level of performance across mice and keyboards. The newest additions to
the PRO Series include:
PRO X SUPERLIGHT 2 DEX: The Asymmetrical Gaming Sharpshooter
The Logitech G PRO X SUPERLIGHT 2 DEX is the cornerstone of our new releases,
featuring a brand-new, asymmetrical, right-handed design developed with
feedback from professional gamers in titles like Counter-Strike and Valorant. This
mouse is not just about ergonomics; it’s a technological powerhouse.
● LIGHTSPEED Wireless Technology: Upgraded to support 8KHz polling,
delivering ultra-fast and responsive performance.
● HERO 2 Sensor: Re-engineered from the ground up to help achieve 8kHz
polling, this sensor now offers unmatched tracking performance with speeds
over 888 inches per second and acceleration over 88G.
● LIGHTFORCE Switches: Combines optical sensing for instant actuation and
reliability with a mechanical component for a satisfying click and low power
consumption.
● Sustainability: Manufactured with up to 55% post-consumer recycled ABS
plastic, significantly reducing its carbon impact.
DEX is a specialized right-handed tool that many pro players have asked us to add to
the PRO Series portfolio. As with our PRO Series gear, DEX has been a multi-year
development cycle, working with hundreds of elite esports athletes to meet their
specific needs.
“The PRO X SUPERLIGHT 2 DEX feels like an extension of my hand, and that kind of
comfort is crucial in high-stakes matches,” said Nikola “NiKo” Kovač, G2 Esports,
Counter-Strike 2. “DEX delivers on the quality, precision, and speed that I told Logitech
I need to win.”
PRO 2 LIGHTSPEED: An Upgrade to the Iconic PRO Wireless
In addition to launching a brand new right-handed PRO gaming mouse, we have
taken the opportunity to launch the Logitech G PRO 2 LIGHTSPEED. The new PRO 2
LIGHTSPEED takes the original ambidextrous design of the PRO Wireless gaming
mouse to the next level with state-of-the-art components and performance
enhancements. This is an evolution of an esports icon featuring the latest LIGHTSPEED
and HERO 2 updates.
“If you are a fan of ambidextrous mice, the G PRO 2 LIGHTSPEED is definitely the one I
recommend!” said Evan “evv” De Couto, FlyQuest RED, Valorant. “It's such a fast and
responsive mouse, and its shape is effortless to hold, which makes adjusting to your
targets more precise and simple.”
PRO X TKL RAPID: The First Pro Grade Rapid Trigger Keyboard
The PRO X TKL RAPID is Logitech G's debut magnetic analog keyboard, offering
adjustable actuation points and rapid trigger functionality. These features empower
professionals to execute movements and commands with exceptional speed and
precision. The keyboard's actuation points and rapid trigger settings can be adjusted
instantly without software, making it ideal for esports pros who must configure new
hardware on systems where software installation isn't allowed.
“I’ve tested many analog keyboards out there, but what sets the PRO X TKL RAPID
apart is how Logitech truly listened to my input” said Ilya “m0NESY'” Osipov, G2
Esports, Counter-Strike 2. “They took the time to understand what I needed in a
keyboard and made sure those features were reflected in the final product.”
Key features include:
● Magnetic Analog Switches: Custom designed by Logitech G engineers to
have industry-leading response linearity, these switches feature adjustable
actuation points and rapid trigger capability for precise and swift movements.
● Key Priority: Logitech G’s easy-to-use implementation of Simultaneous
Opposing Cardinal Directions (SOCD) resolution, this G HUB feature gives
players more precision, speed, and control over in-game movement by
assigning one or more pairs of keys to measure and compare actions, such as
travel distance, last press, and neutral or absolute priority.
● On-the-Fly Configuration: This feature allows pros to quickly and easily
configure actuation points and rapid trigger settings without installing G HUB.
It is ideal for tournament systems that do not permit third-party software
installation.
● G HUB Integration: KEYCONTROL provides detailed control of rapid trigger and
switches travel settings, multi-actuation assignments, and multiple command
layers. Users can also access the G HUB community and pro player settings to
optimize their keyboard's capabilities.
● Sustainability: Constructed using low-carbon aluminum and post-consumer
recycled ABS plastic.
