Razer™ today announced the launch of the Razer BlackShark V3 Pro lineup — an evolution of its iconic esports headset series. Designed for peak competitive performance, the new lineup includes platform-optimized models for PC, PlayStation®, and Xbox, each delivering ultra-low latency wireless audio, crystal-clear voice communication, and tailored sound tuning.
The BlackShark series has long been a trusted choice among competitive gamers. With the BlackShark V3 Pro line, we’ve refined the essentials — sound quality, comfort, and noise isolation — based on direct feedback from esports professionals. Now, with the fastest wireless performance and ultra-low latency audio, every detail is tuned to meet the demands of today’s top players, delivering the clarity, speed, and focus they need to perform at their best.”
said Jeffrey Chau, Global Esports Director at Razer.
Engineered for Competitive Precision
- Razer HyperSpeed Wireless Gen-2 for Ultra-Low Latency - The BlackShark V3 Pro is the first headset to feature Razer’s Gen-2 HyperSpeed Wireless technology, delivering industry-leading, ultra-responsive audio with latency as low as 10 milliseconds. This represents a 33% reduction compared to the 15 ms latency found in top competing headsets, giving players a decisive edge in fast-paced competitive scenarios where every millisecond counts.
- Razer HyperClear Full Band Mic for Pro-Level Communication - Communication is critical in esports. The detachable 12 mm microphone offers studio-grade voice capture with a professional-level sampling rate of 48 kHz and a unidirectional pickup pattern — ensuring players are heard clearly, even in the heat of battle.
- Hybrid Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) for Total Focus - For the first time in the BlackShark series, the BlackShark V3 Pro features advanced hybrid ANC powered by a 4-microphone system that intelligently filters out ambient noise. Combined with memory foam ear cushions and a closed-back design, the headset helps players maintain focus in any environment.
- Next-Gen Razer TriForce Bio-Cellulose Drivers for Crisp Audio - Gen-2 TriForce 50 mm drivers with ultra-thin bio-cellulose diaphragms deliver cleaner, more natural sound and sharper frequency separation for precise in-game audio cues. A redesigned driver plug reduces harmonic distortion by 50%, ensuring crisp clarity, while a 75% increase in magnet field strength enhances spatial accuracy for pinpoint detection of enemy movement.
- THX® Spatial Audio with 7.1.4 Surround Sound (PC only) - THX Spatial Audio expands the vertical soundstage by adding four virtual overhead speakers to content that supports 7.1.4 channels on PC. This creates a more precise and layered sound environment, enabling gamers to locate audio cues not only around them but also above. The result is precise positional audio and greater directionality in supported games and media. The BlackShark V3 Pro is the first product to feature this new THX Spatial Audio configuration.
Pro-tested, Player-Approved
Sound plays a huge role in how I make decisions in-game. With the BlackShark V3 Pro, it became easier to pick the more subtle audio details around reloads, footsteps and position shifts, that were harder to catch before. I had a chance to try the early prototypes and worked closely with Razer’s team to help fine-tune the headset for competitive CS2. It’s definitely a step up, and a clear upgrade that keeps me focused and confident."
