Razer has officially launched its new Counter-Strike 2 (CS2) Collection, a lineup of high-performance gaming peripherals that draws inspiration from the game's iconic "Dragon Lore" weapon skin. The collection, which became globally available on October 30, 2025, is tailored for competitive CS2 players and esports enthusiasts seeking both top-tier performance and distinctive in-game aesthetics. This move reinforces Razer's commitment to the esports community, integrating beloved game elements with their professional-grade hardware.
The collaboration fuses Razer's trusted esports technology with the visually striking green and gold motif synonymous with the rare AWP | Dragon Lore skin. It’s certainly a bold statement for any competitive setup.
Central to the new collection are three key peripherals designed to provide a competitive edge in fast-paced tactical shooters like CS2. Each product boasts Razer's latest technological advancements, ensuring both speed and precision.
The Viper V3 Pro mouse, a favorite among esports pros, now sports the Dragon Lore livery. This wireless mouse features an 8K Hz polling rate, a 35,000 DPI optical sensor, and a remarkably lightweight 54g design. Its improved click response, 20% faster than its predecessor, and enhanced grip textures are specific optimizations aimed at the nuanced demands of CS2 gameplay, promising unmatched agility for precise aiming and flick shots. It’ll run you $159.99.
For immersive audio and clear communication, the BlackShark V3 Pro headset has been reimagined for CS2. It includes THX Spatial Audio, 50mm TriForce Titanium drivers, and a hyperclear cardioid microphone. But that’s not all. A significant differentiator is its integrated haptic feedback, a feature engineered to provide tactile cues from in-game events, like footsteps or gunfire, enhancing situational awareness. With up to 70 hours of battery life and active noise cancellation, it's built for extended competitive sessions. The headset is priced at $199.99.
Rounding out the core collection is the Iskur V2 X gaming chair. More than just a seat, it’s an ergonomic command center, supporting up to 136kg with 4D armrests and adjustable lumbar support. The chair, clad in synthetic leather with the distinctive Dragon Lore pattern, also includes built-in RGB lighting that syncs with Razer Chroma, making it a visual centerpiece of any gaming setup. And yes, it is comfortable. This premium seating solution comes in at $499.99.
Additionally, the collection includes a Razer Gigantus V2 mouse mat ($34.99), offering a micro-textured surface for consistent tracking, crucial for competitive play. Bundle deals are also available, often providing a 10-15% discount for players looking to complete their Dragon Lore setup.
The launch strategically capitalizes on CS2's immense popularity, with the game consistently drawing over 1.5 million concurrent players. Razer’s strategy to integrate popular game aesthetics with pro-trusted hardware aligns with a growing trend in the esports accessories market, estimated to be worth over $1.5 billion. For sure, this collection is set to boost Razer’s presence in this segment, deepening brand loyalty among competitive gamers.
Initial community reactions have been largely enthusiastic across social media platforms like X and Reddit. Many CS2 players have expressed excitement, seeing the collection as a "must-have" for dedicated Dragon Lore fans. However, the premium pricing, especially for the Iskur V2 X chair, has drawn some critical comments, with discussions around value proposition compared to non-themed alternatives. Despite this, experts have praised the performance enhancements, with the Viper V3 Pro, for instance, being lauded for its "unmatched speed in FPS games." Razer's official statements emphasize the collection’s ability to deliver "lightning-fast response and personalized precision," aiming to give players a tangible competitive advantage.
What truly sets this collection apart from generic gaming peripherals, even Razer’s own standard lines, is its authentic integration of the CS2 Dragon Lore theme and game-centric features. The haptic feedback in the BlackShark V3 Pro, alongside customizable profiles via Razer Synapse for CS2-specific settings, offers a tailored experience. Moreover, the entire collection benefits from 15-20% faster wireless latency and enhanced durability compared to previous models, reflecting Razer's continuous innovation in esports gear.
The collection saw immediate global availability on October 30, 2025, reaching markets across Europe, Asia-Pacific, and the United States without noted restrictions. Regional promotions, such as exclusive pre-order bonuses in Japan and bundle deals linked to local esports events in Asia-Pacific, further underscore Razer's tailored approach to its diverse global customer base. The collection looks poised to become a significant draw for the dedicated CS2 community.
