With some of the world’s best EA Sports FC players on their roster, RBLZ Gaming brings a wealth of insight into console peripherals. As part of Team Razer, the athletes will collaborate closely with Razer’s innovation and product teams to help refine and develop the next generation of gaming gear for pro players. Kicking off the partnership, the team has already provided invaluable feedback on the recently launched Razer BlackShark V3 Pro for PlayStation.
