Razer Launches Kraken V4 Pro: Wireless Gaming Headset with Enhanced Audio Control at $399

Published by

Razer has introduced the Kraken V4 Pro gaming headset at RazerCon 2024, marking over twelve years of development in its Kraken series, a staple in gaming audio solutions. Building upon the foundation of the recently released Kraken V4 and Kraken V4 X, the Kraken V4 Pro distinguishes itself with the integration of an OLED Control Hub. This feature provides users with expanded audio immersion and precise control capabilities, setting new benchmarks for wireless gaming headsets. The design of the Kraken V4 Pro emphasizes technical sophistication, focusing on delivering a comprehensive and customizable audio experience tailored to the needs of gamers.

Central to the Kraken V4 Pro is the OLED Control Hub, inspired by audio amplifiers and ergonomically positioned at a 20-degree angle for ease of use. This control center offers over twenty customization options, allowing users to manage audio settings, adjust haptic feedback, and personalize the home screen to display system metrics or custom images and animations. The inclusion of Razer Sensa HD Haptics technology further enhances the headset's functionality by providing synchronized haptic feedback across devices. This technology translates in-game audio cues and actions into precise tactile sensations, thereby improving spatial awareness and depth in gameplay. Supported by major titles such as Hogwarts Legacy and Silent Hill 2, Sensa HD Haptics ensures that audio elements like ambient sounds and explosions are felt as well as heard, thereby deepening the immersive experience. Additionally, the ear cushions are made from specialized memory foam and protein leather, optimized for haptic conductivity to ensure that vibrations are transmitted effectively for a more engaging audio experience.

The Kraken V4 Pro is equipped with Razer’s TriForce Bio-Cellulose 40 mmdrivers, which incorporate a bio-cellulose diaphragm to enhance sound clarity and reduce distortion. This results in rich bass and sharp acoustics across a broad frequency range, complemented by THX Spatial Audio technology that delivers advanced 7.1 surround sound. This setup provides realistic positional audio and expands the overall soundstage, offering a more accurate and immersive auditory environment. The headset also features custom-tuned THX Game Profiles for over sixty popular game titles, enabling tailored audio settings that enhance the gaming experience. In terms of connectivity, the Kraken V4 Pro supports multiple platforms including PC, PlayStation, Nintendo Switch, Steam Deck, and mobile devices through Razer HyperSpeed Wireless for low-latency audio, Bluetooth for mobile connectivity, USB Wired for stable gaming sessions, and a 3.5 mm jack for universal compatibility. The OLED Control Hub allows simultaneous connection to three audio sources via two USB-C ports and one 3.5 mm port, facilitating seamless switching between devices like PC and PlayStation. Communication is maintained with the Razer HyperClear Super Wideband Mic, which captures a broader frequency range for clear voice transmission, essential for effective team coordination in competitive gaming environments. Priced at $399.99, the Razer Kraken V4 Pro is now available.
