Cat ear headphones have been a thing for awhile now. These are a charming way to turn your audio gear into an accessory, and can be especially fun if your stream or record yourself gaming regularly. But at the same time, maybe they’ve been around long enough that they’ve lost a bit of what made them special. We’re ready for the next evolution of the cat ear gaming headset. Well, then…
Presenting…
The Razer Kraken Kitty V2 USB Wired Headset. What makes these special? Well, they’re not cat ears at all. These, my friend, are Gengar spikes. That’s right, the downright coolest Pokémon of the original 151 (and arguably of the now 1,000+), has its own gaming headset. And right now, it’s on sale for 20% off. Normally these ghost Pokémon themed headphones and cardioid mic are going for $140, but the deal brings them down to just $112. But don’t you dare add to cart just yet. The product page has a clippable coupon which takes the price down even further to just $82. That’s saving you an extra $20, making for a total savings of $58.
This deep purple headset has a band on top fitter out to match the spikes that go across Gengar’s head. Gengar itself makes a couple appearances on the accessory if you look closely. A tiny silhouette of Gastly’s final evolution can be found on the outside of the ear cups. On the inside is some line art of the fun guy too.
This headset feels just as good as it looks. You can comfortably wear it for extended gaming sessions as the earcups provide a snug and comfy fit using hybrid fabric and leatherette cushions. The cushions serve a dual purpose in helping with reducing outside noises so you can focus wholly on your game.
High Quality Audio
This Gengar headset isn’t all just show. The headphones are fitted with 40mm drivers, part of a patented three-part driver design. You can expect exceptional detail in the highs, mids, and lows alike. The Razer Kraken Kitty V2 supports full 7.1 surround sound, so when you’re playing a shooter and hear the pitter patter of a nearby enemy, you’ll be able to locate them with pinpoint precision via sound alone.
Razer equipped this headset with a HyperClear cardioid microphone which is tuned to pick up only the noise you make. The mic is flexible so you can position it to whatever feels most ideal for you.
