It only took Razer some 15 years to finally do the right thing and make a gloriously ugly Minecraft creeper keyboard

"Creepin' it real", that's what Razer says of its new peripheral collection. Now that might sound silly, but every small child with any interest in gaming just collectively lost their tiny minds.

The new Razer x Minecraft collection is made up of the Razer BlackWidow V4 X Minecraft Edition gaming keyboard, Razer Kraken V4 X Minecraft Edition gaming headset, Razer Cobra Minecraft Edition gaming mouse, and Razer Gigantus V2 M Minecraft Edition mouse pad. Each and every one comes plastered in either grass block or Creeper green.

The headset is the cheaper version of the Kraken V4, which we liked for review. It comes with pretty standard, but by no means poor specs, in Razer's TriForce drivers, chunky cushions, retractable mic, and 20 Hz – 20 kHz frequency response.

The Minecraft mouse is the Cobra, which we've again only reviewed the more expensive Pro version. It's a lightweight wired design with some RGB lighting, which should appeal to any youth. God, I sound old. What happened?

But you should know, these Minecraft versions cost more than their black counterparts. $40 more in the case of the keyboard, but only $20 more for the mouse/headset.

So, here's the damage:

The good news is that there are two in-game unlocks included, an 'Ender Dragon Shawl' skin with the keyboard or headset, and a 'Overgrown arm' skin with the mouse and mouse pad.

Did I mention this kit will allow you to "truly live the block life"? And not a moment too soon—Minecraft first released around 15 years ago now.

I'm just jealous. I wish I had a creeper keyboard when I was a nerdy teen.
