Logitech G, the gaming division of the peripheral company Logitech, has caused quite a stir in the gaming world thanks to a multi-year exclusive partnership with miHoYo. In fact, this partnership will also spawn a new line of Genshin Impact-themed PC gaming hardware. Logitech G is acutely aware that the world of Teyvat is a visually stunning and performance-heavy environment, which requires the best in gaming hardware. Let’s take a closer look at how Logitech G’s latest offerings are designed to help you compete on a legendary level.
At the core of this collaboration is a shared love of innovation, quality and delight in the details. The pieces of this line, created in collaboration between Logitech G and HoYoverse – Genshin Impact’s developer – are as visually striking as they are technically impressive. The first wave of products, unveiled at Logi Play 2024, includes a line of custom gaming mice themed after Genshin Impact characters. This marks the dawn of a new genre of gaming gear.
The first item is a fully customisable Logitech G309 Lightspeed gaming mouse that channels Kamisato Ayaka’s ice-themed aesthetic. ‘Its crystalline wedding cake design and clean, calming colour palette of white and pink are accented by character art on a cool blue base,’ the product description reads. ‘But it’s more than just Genshin Impact-inspired cosplay, the Logitech G309 boasts Lightforce hybrid switches and 600+ hours of battery life (in Bluetooth mode) and multiple customisable profiles.’
Ayaka is not the only G305 Lightspeed to raise the blood pressure. Up to three new models, all being released next year, will add more character-spirited zing. Whiteness is the common backdrop, but the character-inspired prints shine on the main buttons of three different colourways: the cool hues of Sayu, the warmth of Thoma, and the fiery red of Shikanoin Heizou, whose addition should inject some heat into gaming sessions.
Alongside this, the partnership will release a new line of Genshin Impact-themed gear – headsets, keyboards and keyboard and mouse combos – later this year. The company has a full suite of Genshin Impact gear ready for Rogue’s fanbase to help them immerse themselves in the world of Teyvat. Every piece of gear is a symbol of the adventurers spirit.
The most notable one is fire red Shikanoin Heizou design. Called the boy of the blaze, he represents the lively and combat nature that is a part and parcel of the game – Genshin Impact. Red is an energised colour and used as a symbol of energy, power, strength and intensity. Red is an obvious choice of colour for Heizou here as he represents the very essence of energy and passion in-game. This highlights the fact that Logitech G aimed not only to recreate the visual aesthetic of these characters, but also their in-game character and context.
At the same time as these hardware announcements, Logitech G updated its G Cloud handheld to include a controller mode with native controller compatibility for Genshin Impact. With this update, the company was sending a signal about a larger strategic vision to create a gaming experience that would not just be optimised for ‘performance’ but also for ‘fantasy’ immersion within the world of Teyvat.
Digging further into the choice of the fiery red for the Shikanoin Heizou-inspired design, the logic of the decision becomes even clearer. The colour red throbs with the vital energy and the passionate, warrior’s fire that so characterise Heizou’s persona: it not only catches the eye, but it also serves as a lighthouse – one that calls to gamers to take themselves further into the adventure, better armed with gear that’s aligned with the heart of war.
The launch of Logitech G’s new HOLOMESH HERO design with Genshin Impact signals a new era in gaming hardware – the fusion of best-in-class technology with storytelling and character from Genshin Impact. Gamers can look forward to enjoying an immersive yet technically-advanced gaming experience with an artistic edge inspired by the majesty of Teyvat.
Red is more than a colour, it is the energy of life, the courage to explore and the strength to achieve. In games, red represents power, mastery and strength – qualities that every gamer wants to share in. Its high visibility both enlivens gaming hardware aesthetically, and acts as a visual centre of gravity to draw the gamer into the heart of the game. In the collaboration between Logitech G and Genshin Impact, red is more than a colour, it comes to represent the heart of games themselves.
