Razer BlackShark V3 Pro Series: The Fastest Wireless Esports Headset Yet

Razer has just raised the bar in competitive gaming audio with the launch of its BlackShark V3 Pro series — the brand’s fastest, most advanced wireless headset lineup for esports to date. Optimized for PC, PlayStation, and Xbox, the new headsets bring pro-grade audio performance, crystal-clear voice comms, and next-gen features tailored for every platform.

Built for Champions

Born from its Battlefield esports legacy in 2012, the BlackShark line has long been trusted by top-tier players. As of July 2025, the BlackShark V2 Pro is ranked the #1 headset on ProSettings, and now, the BlackShark V3 Pro builds on that legacy with even more cutting-edge features designed for elite performance.

Lightning-Fast Wireless with HyperSpeed Gen-2

Debuting Razer’s HyperSpeed Wireless Gen-2 technology, the BlackShark V3 Pro delivers ultra-responsive audio with just 10ms latency — a 33% improvement over top competitors. Whether it’s fast-paced gunfire or subtle enemy footsteps, every audio cue arrives with pinpoint precision.

Pro-Level Voice, Zero Distractions

Equipped with a detachable 12mm HyperClear Full Band Mic, users can expect studio-grade voice capture with 48kHz sampling and a unidirectional pattern that ensures clear, focused communication. Hybrid Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) powered by a 4-mic system further blocks out distractions, while plush memory foam cushions create a sealed, immersive experience.

High-Fidelity Sound, Engineered to Win

The Gen-2 TriForce 50mm bio-cellulose drivers offer cleaner, more natural sound with improved frequency separation. A redesigned plug cuts distortion by 50%, while a 75% boost in magnetic field strength ensures exceptional spatial accuracy for tracking in-game movement.

On PC, the V3 Pro is the first to feature THX Spatial Audio with 7.1.4 surround, expanding the vertical soundstage with virtual overhead speakers for next-level positional audio in supported games.

Designed With the Pros

Fine-tuned with input from esports legends like Nikola “NiKo” Kovač (Team Razer, Counter-Strike) and Shotzzy (OpTic, Call of Duty), the V3 Pro has been developed to meet the highest standards in tournament audio.

Tailored Audio for Every Platform

Whether you’re on PC, PlayStation, or Xbox, the BlackShark V3 Pro lineup is optimized for the unique soundscapes of each console:

PC: THX Spatial Audio with 7.1.4 surround
PlayStation: Tempest 3D Audio compatibility
Xbox: Windows Sonic spatial sound support

Each headset supports 2.4GHz wireless, Bluetooth, USB-A, and 3.5mm wired connections — plus simultaneous wireless + Bluetooth audio, letting users stay connected to voice calls or chats without interrupting gameplay.

Gamers can also access 12 pro-tuned EQ profiles for popular FPS titles, with support for up to 9 custom EQs stored directly on the headset — no software required.

A Lineup for Every Player

Alongside the flagship V3 Pro, Razer is launching two additional models:

BlackShark V3: Features Gen-2 TriForce Titanium drivers, HyperClear Superwide Band Mic, THX Spatial Audio, and dual wireless/Bluetooth connectivity.
BlackShark V3 X HyperSpeed: Entry-level wireless headset with Gen-2 TriForce drivers, 7.1 surround sound, and HyperClear Cardioid Mic.

All models are available across PC, PlayStation, and Xbox variants.
