To own a Kraken is to know what performance gaming sounds like. And several years since its inception, we’ve never lost sight of what it’s always gotten right: powerful sound, incredible comfort and long-lasting durability. With each iteration constantly redefining what a competitive gaming headset should be, the question isn’t about whether you’ll be getting one—it’s deciding which one you’ll be getting. We can help with that.
SUPERIOR POSITIONAL AUDIO
A beast lurking in the shadows, an opponent sneaking up from behind—it’s often what you don’t see that gets you. Get the jump on your enemies before they do, with the superior positional audio inherent in all Razer Krakens.
Discern and locate aural cues with greater accuracy in 7.1 surround sound, or heighten your gaming even further with the immersive, 360-degree soundscape of THX Spatial Audio, complete with full customization options.
MASTERFUL SOUND
Balancing clear, powerful trebles with rich, immersive bass, the Razer Kraken’s custom-tuned 40mm and 50mm audio drivers ensure that whether it’s subtle footsteps or massive explosions, the exceptional sound quality will always be blowing you away.
CRYSTAL-CLEAR COMMUNICATION
A squad with superior teamwork and communication stands a better chance of emerging victorious. In the heat of battle, Razer Kraken cardioid microphones are designed to carry your orders well above the chaos through a pickup pattern that records sound from a tighter angle, improving noise suppression from the sides and back.
SUPREME COMFORT AND DURABILITY
Maintaining concentration is key to competing at your best during long, arduous matches. That’s why Razer Krakens are quite literally, designed for the long game.
The glasses-friendly earcups are fitted with plush leatherette cushions that provide a soft, comfortable fit, while the cooling-gel variants also reduce heat build-up from prolonged usage. Coupled with a robust build of fewer moving parts, any Razer Kraken is more than equipped to meet your most intense gaming needs.
