Translucent green Xbox set
Razer opened preorders on August 25 for a three-piece Xbox 25th Anniversary peripheral collection, and the earbuds in that lineup cost exactly double what the standard version sells for. The set covers a mouse, a keyboard, and a pair of earbuds, all recolored in translucent green and dressed up with Xbox-era detailing, and it ships October 20.
Nothing about the internals changes. The Basilisk V3 Pro 35K mouse keeps its 35,000 DPI Focus Pro optical sensor and 140-hour battery life, the BlackWidow V4 75% keyboard keeps its hot-swappable switches and dedicated Xbox key, and the Hammerhead V3 X HyperSpeed earbuds keep their 2.4GHz low-latency wireless. What buyers are actually paying for is a shell color and a 20th Anniversary-style badge.
That premium isn’t consistent across the range, and one item stands out. The mouse runs $179.99 against a $159.99 standard price, a $20 bump, and the keyboard runs $209.99 against $199.99, just $10 more. The earbuds are the outlier: Razer’s standard Hammerhead V3 X HyperSpeed sells for $99.99, and the Xbox edition is $199.99. Buy all three individually and the collection runs $589.97, with no bundle discount advertised.
The timing lines up with Xbox’s 25th anniversary push this fall, which Microsoft has built into a broader hardware moment rather than a single product drop. Reporting around Gamescom has also pointed to a rumored translucent Xbox Series X25 console priced near $900, and Razer’s collection was announced alongside that wave rather than as a standalone release. Anniversary editions across the industry typically lean on limited production runs to justify the markup, and Razer hasn’t said how many units of each piece it’s making.
Anyone who just wants the performance can skip this collection entirely and buy the standard black or white versions for less, since the hardware underneath is identical. The earbuds are the one item where the anniversary tax is hard to justify on spec alone. Preorders are live now on Razer.com, with shipping set for October 20.
