Razer Reveals Translucent Green Xbox 25th Anniversary Peripheral Collection

Razer has unveiled a limited-edition trio of gaming peripherals celebrating Xbox's upcoming 25th anniversary, bringing the unmistakable translucent green styling of the original Xbox era to a mouse, mechanical keyboard and wireless earbuds. The Xbox 25th Anniversary collection is available now and consists of customized versions of three established Razer products: the Basilisk V3 Pro 35K, the BlackWidow V4 75%, and the Hammerhead V3 X HyperSpeed for Xbox.

The anniversary itself arrives on November 15, marking a quarter-century since the original Xbox launched. Rather than producing a controller for this collection, Razer has focused on accessories that span both Xbox and PC play. It is an unusual but fitting approach for a brand whose peripherals have long been associated with PC gaming while also maintaining a substantial Xbox-focused lineup.

Every item in the collection uses a translucent emerald green finish intended to call back to the special-edition original Xbox console colorway. The design also evokes the translucent green original-Xbox debug systems once used for playing development builds. That visual history makes the products especially aimed at players who remember the early 2000s hardware scene, but the specifications are firmly modern.

Three Razer products receive the anniversary treatment

The collection covers three different categories of personal gaming equipment. The Razer Basilisk V3 Pro 35K, Xbox 25 Anniversary Edition, is a wireless ergonomic mouse with a suggested retail price of $179.99. It is built around Razer's Focus Pro 35K Optical Sensor Gen-2 and includes the company's configurable HyperScroll Tilt Wheel. There are 13 customizable controls, along with HyperSpeed Wireless connectivity and Chroma RGB lighting.

For PC players who use a mouse as their primary input device, the Basilisk is likely the most conventional product in the lineup. Its ergonomic shape and extensive control options place it in the higher-end wireless mouse category, while the limited anniversary shell gives it a more distinctive identity than a standard black peripheral. The green transparent styling is the central attraction, though the sensor, scroll-wheel functions and programmable inputs ensure it remains a current flagship-level option rather than a nostalgia item alone.

The Razer BlackWidow V4 75%, Xbox 25 Anniversary Edition is the collection's keyboard, carrying a $209.99 MSRP. As the name suggests, it uses a compact 75% layout that retains important keys while taking up less desk space than a full-size board. It arrives with Orange Tactile Switches Gen-3 pre-installed and supports hot-swapping, allowing owners to change compatible switches without replacing the entire keyboard.

Razer's anniversary BlackWidow also has a dedicated Xbox key for accessing Game Bar, an especially notable addition for users moving between Windows and Xbox ecosystem features. Its lighting setup includes per-key Chroma RGB illumination and underglow on both sides. A magnetic leatherette wrist rest is included as well. The result is a board designed to match the collection visually while retaining practical features expected from a premium gaming keyboard.

Completing the set is the Razer Hammerhead V3 X HyperSpeed for Xbox, Xbox 25 Anniversary Edition, a wireless earbud model priced at $119.99 MSRP. The earbuds support Razer HyperSpeed Wireless at 2.4 GHz, Bluetooth 5.3, and SmartSwitch functionality. Razer lists battery life at up to 35 hours, while the earbuds also carry an IPX4 water-resistance rating.

For Xbox and PC use, the Hammerhead V3 X HyperSpeed supports surround sound. That makes it the most directly console-oriented of the three products, even though it remains part of an accessory lineup intended to work across platforms. Earbuds are a markedly different kind of anniversary item than a controller or headset, but the compact form factor gives Razer another surface for the translucent-green finish without repeating the usual full-size gaming headset formula.

An Xbox celebration rooted in a recognizable color

Translucent green has a particular place in Xbox history. During the original console generation, it became closely associated with the brand through limited hardware and the distinctive developer-facing systems used during that period. The color is more than a generic green-and-black gaming aesthetic: for longtime Xbox fans, it is immediately tied to the machine that introduced Halo, Xbox Live, and Microsoft's first major console platform.

That association is doing much of the work for Razer's collection. The underlying Basilisk, BlackWidow and Hammerhead products already occupy separate roles in Razer's broader catalog. The anniversary editions package them as a coordinated set, with the visual treatment providing the connection among categories that would otherwise be used in quite different ways. A player could choose just one device, or build a matching desktop and audio setup around all three.

There is a slight twist to the lineup: despite being made for an Xbox anniversary, it does not include an Xbox gamepad. Controllers are usually the first peripheral people connect with a console brand, and Xbox's long-running controller design is itself a major part of the platform's identity. Razer has instead leaned into its strengths in PC-style input hardware and mobile-like audio accessories, creating products that broaden the anniversary celebration beyond the usual controller release.

Pricing and feature overview

• Razer Basilisk V3 Pro 35K, Xbox 25 Anniversary Edition -- $179.99 MSRP: Wireless ergonomic mouse with Focus Pro 35K Optical Sensor Gen-2, HyperScroll Tilt Wheel, 13 customizable controls, HyperSpeed Wireless, and Chroma RGB.
• Razer BlackWidow V4 75%, Xbox 25 Anniversary Edition -- $209.99 MSRP: Hot-swappable compact mechanical keyboard with Orange Tactile Switches Gen-3, a Game Bar-focused Xbox key, per-key RGB, two-side underglow, and a magnetic leatherette wrist rest.
• Razer Hammerhead V3 X HyperSpeed for Xbox, Xbox 25 Anniversary Edition -- $119.99 MSRP: Wireless earbuds featuring 2.4 GHz HyperSpeed Wireless, Bluetooth 5.3, SmartSwitch, up to 35 hours of battery life, IPX4 water resistance, and surround sound on Xbox and PC.

Based on the stated suggested prices, purchasing the full collection would amount to $509.97 before taxes. That total places the package in enthusiast territory, which is unsurprising given the limited-edition branding and the premium product categories involved. Players primarily interested in the anniversary presentation may find the choice easiest to make based on how they play: the mouse and keyboard are naturally geared toward desk setups, while the earbuds offer the most flexible audio-focused route into the range.

Microsoft also has anniversary hardware on the way

Razer's collection is part of a larger Xbox 25th anniversary push that also includes Microsoft's own translucent green hardware. Microsoft is marking the occasion with a special-edition Xbox Series X console and a matching controller. The console package includes Halo: Campaign Evolved, linking the anniversary hardware to one of Xbox's most important series.

Together, the releases show how strongly the original Xbox's appearance continues to resonate 25 years later. The newer hardware is not attempting to recreate the technical limitations or bulk of the first console. Instead, it takes a defining visual cue from that period and applies it to current devices, from a modern Xbox Series X to Razer's wireless mouse, compact keyboard and earbuds.

For fans who want a visible piece of Xbox history in a present-day setup, the Razer Xbox 25th Anniversary collection offers a coordinated alternative to a standard controller purchase. It is also a reminder that the Xbox ecosystem has grown far beyond a single console: the anniversary can now be reflected in PC input gear, wireless audio, Windows gaming features and console hardware alike. With the November 15 anniversary approaching, translucent green is once again taking a prominent place in Xbox's hardware identity.
