Logitech G is not waiting for the holidays to make its move. The company used this week's annual PLAY 2026 showcase to introduce 15 new gaming products and software features, according to Gadget Hacks, ranging from esports-grade peripherals to streaming software and sim-racing hardware. The new Logitech gaming gear is designed to work as one connected ecosystem, and the first products start rolling out this October.
"The landscape of play is evolving faster than ever, and breakthrough technology is pushing the boundaries of what is possible in gaming," Robin Piispanen, the general manager of Logitech G, said in the announcement covered by Gadget Hacks. He added that the company built the new hardware and software with its partners to help competitive players perform and to push gaming hardware standards forward. His comments set the tone for the whole Logitech gaming gear reveal.
The new PRO esports lineup
Leading the drop is a refreshed PRO Series developed alongside professional esports competitors, Gadget Hacks reported. The PRO X3 SUPERSTRIKE gaming mouse runs on Logitech G's proprietary HITS technology and pairs it with an overhauled power-management system that the company says delivers a 50% increase in energy efficiency inside a lightweight chassis. The PRO X Control Mousepad, built for the same competitive crowd, measures 400 x 460 millimeters and combines a knitted fabric surface with 6mm Slimflex Foam and a non-slip rubber base. This wave of Logitech gaming gear clearly targets players who will pay for every last millisecond.
The PRO X2 RAPID gaming keyboard goes after the competitive keyboard crowd with magnetic switches, Rapid Trigger functionality, and Key Priority customization, YugaTech reported. Settings can be tuned through Logitech G HUB or on the keyboard itself using a built-in OLED screen, a small but welcome upgrade for players who tweak settings between matches. Built-in displays keep showing up on desk hardware this year. I covered a similar trick on the Honor Life S3, the e-ink reader that snaps to your phone, earlier this week.
Rounding out the PRO Series is the PRO X3 LIGHTSPEED gaming headset, which carries a studio-grade 48 kHz microphone, customizable EQ profiles, and battery life built for long sessions, according to Gadget Hacks. Reviewers will be watching how this Logitech gaming gear holds up under marathon sessions. For context on where gaming audio is headed, my recent look at the repairable Sennheiser MOMENTUM 5 Wireless shows how much value players now expect from a single headset.
Creator tools and a faster HERO sensor
For streamers and content creators, Logitech G re-engineered its classic Yeti microphone into the Yeti 2, adding a 3D spatial voice proximity sensor that dynamically tunes gain, EQ, and polar patterns in real time, Gadget Hacks reported. The mic also gets AI-based noise suppression and a color LED display, so creators can check their levels without opening software. It is the kind of thoughtful upgrade that makes this Logitech gaming gear appealing beyond the esports crowd.
On the software side, G HUB Replay is a free tool that records gameplay automatically, picks out hero moments, and exports shareable highlight clips with no manual editing, Gadget Pilipinas reported. The Streamlabs mobile app gets an upgrade too, with Network Boost technology that bonds cellular and Wi-Fi connections to cut latency using SRT protocol support.
Existing owners get something as well. A free firmware update raises the HERO sensor in the G502 X PLUS and G502 X LIGHTSPEED mice to forty-four thousand DPI, with submicron precision and independent X and Y sensitivity adjustments, Gadget Pilipinas reported. This freebie means the Logitech gaming gear you already own gets a genuine performance bump for nothing. Logitech G also added two new colorways for the G502 X PLUS and a compact G316 X 75 mechanical keyboard with a multi-layer snap-fit gasket build, hot-swappable switches, and cross-hatch stem PBT keycaps to its mainstream lineup. That sensor jump is the same efficiency-first engineering chipmakers are chasing elsewhere. Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 is making a similar bet on AI agents in mobile silicon.
Sim racing and what it all costs
Sim racers get modular standalone hardware this time, including standalone versions of the G923 wheel, the RS50 direct-drive system, and the new RS Pedals SE with hall-effect brake and gas pedals for better precision, according to Gadget Pilipinas. The RS50 McLaren Racing Edition pairs an eight Nm direct-drive wheelbase with TRUEFORCE haptic feedback in McLaren's Papaya colorway, and Logitech G says it works with the Playseat Instinct McLaren Racing Edition cockpit. It is a serious rig for a living room, and for sim racers this corner of the Logitech gaming gear lineup is the most ambitious yet.
Local pricing has been confirmed for the Philippines, where the products arrive starting this October through Logitech Gaming Specialist partners and the brand's official stores on Lazada, Shopee, and TikTok Shop, YugaTech reported. The PRO X3 SUPERSTRIKE mouse lands just under thirteen thousand pesos, the PRO X2 RAPID keyboard just under fourteen thousand, and the PRO X3 LIGHTSPEED headset just under fifteen thousand, while the PRO X Control Mousepad runs about four thousand pesos, the compact keyboard about five and a half thousand, and the RS Pedals SE about nine thousand. Logitech G says availability, pricing, and launch timing for other regions will be announced through its regional channels.
