E3 2014: Razer re-"Releases the Kraken" this time, in Neon
"Release the Kraken" jokes never get old, they just don't, and now, thanks to Razer's special edition releases of their Kraken headsets, we get a whole new excuse to make with the funny.
Release the Neon Kraken. That's right, Neon. They're including a full "colorway" of Kraken's in both the pro and the standard versions of the headset. And they're updating their audio software with a pro version available after June 30th for free for folks who download prior to then.
I can almost hear the Kraken now. The neon one, that is.
