gaming teams such as Fnatic, SK Gaming and Evil Geniuses in order to create a level of performance that gamers have never experienced before," said Bruce Hawver, CEO of SteelSeries, in a statement.
The Xai mouse, which has a $79.99 suggested retail, features an ambidextrous shape, seven programmable macro buttons with 200 strokes per button, driverless plug-and-play with five profiles, and is fully configurable via LCD menu system, according to the company.
The Kinzu optical mouse ($34.99) has the same shape as the Xai but is 7 percent smaller.
Finally, the 9HD surface ($34.99) was engineered to support the tracking capabilities of high-definition gaming mice. It's said to feature a finely textured surface with "tens of thousands of light-reflecting microscopic points." SteelSeries said this lets users perform exceptionally precise mouse operations.
All three products are scheduled to be available in August.
