As I recycle my Christmas tree and finish off the last of the egg nog, the Holidays are a distant memory, but gaming waits for no man and this week, Mad Catz are front and center in sunny Las Vegas, NV, as we gear up for CES 2014, the world’s largest Consumer Electronics Show!
CES is THE place to show off and announce cool new tech, so naturally Mad Catz are front and center bringing a new year of gaming treats to passionate gamers everywhere!
Last night, a special press preview event called CES Unveiled kicked things off in style, giving the worlds’ top media an exclusive preview of what’s coming soon. As well as showing off a host of new hardware, Mad Catz were proudly displaying no less than THREE newly won CES Innovations Honoree Awards!
M.O.J.O., our new Android powered Micro-Console, wowed the judges winning an Honoree award in the video game hardware category, as did the all new F.R.E.Q.4D Headset! At CES Unveiled we also lifted the lid on the F.R.E.Q.9, an incredible new headset due for launch later this year which won an award but in the Headphone category! This was the first time Mad Catz has won an award outside the standard video game category and our audio designers were very impressed to say the least!
The F.R.E.Q.9 features a staggering array of cutting edge technology to make it the only headset you need through your daily life. From Bluetooth to AM3D® technology, next generation noise-cancellation and aptX® low-latency, this truly is the headset that can do it all!
We also previewed the latest mouse to join our award winning R.A.T. range. The new R.A.T.TE has been designed specifically for the tournament and professional gamer. Sleek, streamlined, and lighter than any R.A.T. before, the new Tournament Edition model comes complete with a new Phillps® Doppler 8200DPI sensor and individual ‘Lift-Off’ calibration!
Here and now however, it was the amazing Xbox One Force Feedback Racing Wheel which perhaps drew the biggest crowd! A master class of design and engineering, the new wheel is the perfect partner for Forza Motorsport 5 and features Dual Helical Force Feedback Motors which can simulate the biggest crash and smallest jolt for true simulation level driving. It’s an incredible piece of technology which is probably why the world famous MSN featured it as one of their hottest pieces of CES hardware!
We’ll have more to share as CES continues but if you want to be the first to own the incredible new Xbox One Force Feedback Wheel, you can get your pre-order in NOW by clicking HERE!
