Roccat launches the Vulcan II Max, an RGB mechanical keyboard right down to its palmrest

Roccat’s Vulcan series is the top of the range of keyboards gaming of the brand with models like the Vulcan TKL Pro that we tested. A newcomer is entering.

The Vulcan II Max is a full-format keyboard that displays top-flight characteristics with opto-mechanical switches to guarantee good responsiveness and excellent longevity, since they are given for 100 million activations. It is possible to choose between linear reds with an activation point at 1.4 mm or tactile browns at 1.8 mm. Enough to satisfy different requirements, even if the clicky blues are missing.

Roccat has gone far in RGB customization, like its entry-level Magma, since even the palm rest is transparent and backlit, something we’ve never seen before. If some will appreciate, this aesthetic bias will probably not be to everyone’s taste, but it has the merit of being original. It is of course removable if necessary and all the settings can be configured in the Roccat Swarm software.

Despite its price, its keys are not in PBT, which is a bit unfortunate, and no doubt due to their particular shape, but it has dedicated multimedia functions which are always practical.

The keyboard is already available in white or black and is displayed at a price of 230 €, all the same.
