Logitech unveiled its new hardware range for gamers at Logi Play 2024, a live-streamed launch event this week.
The company showcased its new designs and innovations for gamers, SIM racers, keyboard enthusiasts, and console gamers.
The newly announced products include a new SIM racing series featuring a new RS Wheel Hub, two steering wheel options, a new quick-release adapter, and a very cool-looking 2-in-1 sequential shifter and handbrake module.
There’s also a new Logitech Pro keyboard and mouse aimed at esports gamers and enthusiasts and a new wireless gaming headset that will allow you to switch between any three gaming systems at once, including Xbox, PS5, PC, and Nintendo Switch.
Racing Series SIM
The new Racing Series marks an important milestone in Logitech G’s simulation racing heritage. It brings innovation and customisation to drivers, letting them fine-tune their gear setup and equipment levels to match their driving style. The new hardware is compatible with Pro Series gear and is backwards compatible with G Series wheels via the Logitech G Racing Adapter.
“We’ve heard from numerous sim racers that their setup should mirror the car they’re driving, whether it’s tackling gravel in a rally car, drifting with burning rubber, or navigating an open-wheeler with precision,” said Richard Neville, head of SIM product engineering, Logitech G. “Each of these disciplines requires distinct steering input styles to achieve peak performance and the best feel, which is why the steering wheel shapes in these vehicles vary greatly. We developed the RS system specifically for motorsport enthusiasts who want to play their way.”
PRO Mouse and Keyboard:
Designed to meet the demands of elite esports athletes and dedicated gamers, the new lineup includes the newly designed PRO X SUPERLIGHT 2 DEX Gaming Mouse, the upgraded and ambidextrous PRO 2 LIGHTSPEED Gaming Mouse, and the groundbreaking PRO X TKL RAPID Gaming Keyboard with magnetic analog rapid trigger keyboard. With these new products, Logitech G meets the gamers’ needs for the highest-performing gaming gear possible.
Logitech G 915 Series:
The Logitech G915 X Gaming Keyboard stands at an incredible 23mm high and is one of the Company’s thinnest low-profile wireless gaming keyboards. Combining the latest gaming technology with a meticulously crafted design and premium materials, the new G915 X is a flagship gaming keyboard with a sleek modern aesthetic and a premium gaming experience for the most discerning gamers and high-end users.
A50 X Console Gaming Headset:
The Logitech G ASTRO A50 5th Generation Wireless Gaming Headset and Base Station joins its bigger brother, the A50 X, to form the new A50 family of high-performance gaming headsets with advanced feature sets for multi-platform gamers. The A50 Generation 5 features PLAYSYNC AUDIO and is based on the same architecture as our award-winning A50 X, offering a streamlined and versatile feature set tailored for multiplatform gamers. The new PLAYSYNC AUDIO feature is designed specifically for players who want to use USB for seamless audio switching between console and PC platforms and don’t require HDMI video switching.
Streamlabs AI Game Highlighter
Streamlabs also announced a new feature for streamers, AI Game Highlighter. This feature leverages AI to make content capture and publishing smarter, faster, and more advanced than ever. With the click of a button, streamers can turn streams into engaging content for publishing across their social content platforms. This saves time manually sifting through hours of footage and ensures streamers can capture the most compelling content for their social media channels.
MOMO Partnership
Logitech G also announced a multi-year partnership with MOMO, the iconic Italian motorsports brand renowned for crafting premium racing equipment for brands like Ferrari and Porsche. As the exclusive partner for Logitech G SIM Racing Wheels, MOMO will design, develop, and launch high-end steering wheels for the Logitech G Racing Series.
