Hamburg, 8 October 2015 – ROCCAT kicks off the release season in 2015 with the launch of its
all new Kova performance gaming mouse, the successor to the popular Kova[+]. The Kova[+]
took the gaming scene by storm when it was released in 2010 and went on to develop a hardcore
cult following thanks to its streamlined aesthetics. Forged using the legacy of its predecessor as
its blueprint, the new Kova represents a re-imagined fan favorite for gamers who value pure
performance above all else.
The new Kova features a sleek, ambidextrous design suitable for left- and right-handers alike.
Built for power and speed, the mouse places a strong emphasis on raw performance. The result
is streamlined, sports-car like aesthetics with doubled-up core functionality.
The all new Kova – doubled up functionality
The mouse is equipped with a latest generation Pro-Optic R6 sensor with 3500 native dpi
featuring Overdrive mode. Overdrive allows for a stable dpi double-up, resulting in an effective
dpi of 7000. This technology is made possible by the powerful Turbo Core V2 32-bit ARM-based
MCU in the engine room.
Two Smart Cast buttons sit on either side of the Kova’s mouse 1 and mouse 2 buttons. They form
part of an overall intuitive button layout designed for lightning-fast reactions to in-game events.
Optimally placed within finger-tip reach, the Smart Cast buttons add a new level of reflexive
control for fast-paced games and facilitate rapid combos and easy switching between, for
example, weapons or ammo types, and so on.
The Kova features double the illumination power thanks to a vivid RGB lighting system. The 16.8
million color illumination suite lets you configure the scroll wheel and mouse rim lighting
independently of each other
ROCCAT’s famous Easy-Shift[+] technology takes the Kova’s total number of button functions up
to an impressive 22. The mouse is available in both black and white and is compatible with
ROCCAT’s new Swarm driver system.
ROCCAT founder and CEO, René Korte, comments: “The Kova[+] was cherished by gamers for
its sleek aesthetics, and that’s something we wanted to keep when re-imagining the mouse for
the games of today. The new Kova is a worthy successor to the name, carrying on the tradition of
streamlined performance. It features a high-octane, sports-car like build with staggering power
under the hood. We’re sure it’ll delight hardcore gamers as well as fans of the original.”
The all new ROCCAT Kova will retail for €59,99 Euro and hits stores worldwide 17 November
2015.
