Razer's new cute Cinnamoroll headset is available to pre-order, and this puppy is giving me the cosplay itch
Razer announced its brand new Cinnamoroll Edition Razer Kraken Kitty V2 BT wireless headset on July 9, and it's one of the most adorable pairs of cups the brand has unveiled so far.
The Kraken Kitty V2 BT, which is set to launch on July 20, 2026, has swapped its usual pointy, RGB Chroma-powered cat-ears for Cinnamoroll's adorable puppy dog ones instead. While other Razer collabs result in headsets that are simply covered in officially licensed art, this partnership with Sanrio has resulted in a pair that looks so recognisable for the iconic Sanrio mascot that you could use it for cosplay. As someone who hasn't officially made an outfit in several years, I am seriously considering doing just that with this upcoming $139.99 (Razer) pair.
The Cinnamoroll Edition headset from Razer looks adorable, but under the hood, this puppy is the same Kraken Kitty V2 BT pair already available today. That means it includes RGB earcups which can be customized through Razer's Chroma software, TriForce 40 mm audio drivers, Bluetooth 5.2 support, a 40-hour battery life, and an integrated beamforming microphone built into the earcups.

I cover plenty of the cutest and best gaming headsets released by brands like Razer, but so often these collabs result in designs that are a little more understated. Take the recently announced upcoming Razer Espeon & Umbreon Collection for an example. It includes an Espeon and Umbreon Edition Razer Kraken V4 X headset, but it's essentially just a purple version of the existing pair, with some images of the two Pokemon on the headband.
As officially licensed tech typically comes at a higher price (this Cinnamoroll Edition is $40 more than the typical Kraken Kitty V2 BT at $99.99 at Amazon), I much prefer when the designs are more in your face about their inspirations. Fortunately, that's exactly what's happened for this new Cinnamoroll Edition model. Cinnamoroll is known for his down-turned floppy ears, and they're right there on the headband, as is the iconic white and pastel blue color palette that I associate with the Sanrio puppy.
If you were to create a gijinka cosplay (which means to create a human design inspired by an animal/creature), this pair would be perfect. I can already imagine the little ears peeking through a matching white wig. The only problem that would arise would be disguising the Chroma-powered RGB Razer logos on each cup, but the rest of the Cinnamoroll iconography is fortunately reserved for the interior of the headset, which is ideal for cosplay. The real Cinnamoroll doesn't wear images of himself, so why would you in cosplay form?
Of course, I'm not going to recommend that you grab this upcoming $139.99 pair if you purely if you want to dress up as your favorite Sanrio character. It should really be on your radar if you want to look cute and if you're after a new gaming headset. It's rocking the brand's TriForce 40 mm audio drivers, which are found throughout the best Razer headsets available today and still sound fantastic.
Begrudgingly, this is a Bluetooth model, and so there's no 2.4GHz wireless to take advantage of. With that in mind, I'd mainly recommend it to PC players, rather than anyone rocking a PS5. While that might be disappointing to some, this headset is part of a wider PC Cinnamoroll Edition lineup, which also includes a Razer Iskur V2 X NewGen gaming chair available for $449.99 at Amazon, so there's plenty of opportunity to give your desktop a freshly baked Cinnamoroll look.

Total War: Warhammer 40k - Endlich gab es eine komplette Schlacht zu sehen
Creative Assembly hat zum ersten Mal ausführlich gezeigt, wie wir uns eine komplette Schlacht in Total War: Warhammer 40k so vorstellen können. Hier treffen Orks auf das Astra Militarum. Beide Fraktionen sind für ihre Massen an Einheiten bekannt und die gibt es auch im Gameplay zu sehen. Darüber hinaus demonstriert das Gameplay die zerstörbare Umgebung und das Deckungssystem.
Dass das Voice Over übrigens auf Chinesisch ist, liegt daran, dass das Gameplay bei der BiliBili World gezeigt wurde. Einem lokalen Event des chinesischen Webvideo-Anbieters Bilibili.Kevin Feige all but confirms a major Avengers: Doomsday character is showing up in Spider-Man: Brand New Day
Thanks to the Thunderbolts post-credits scene and the major cast announcement, we already know that Florence Pugh's Yelena is set to play a major role in Avengers: Doomsday. However, before she returns to the big screen in December, it sounds as though the anti-hero may dip into the MCU a little sooner than expected.
"If you're a fan of Yelena, wait until Avengers: Doomsday, Yelena plays a big part in that. But if you don't want to wait until then, you might see Yelena a little bit sooner in the movies,” said Marvel head Kevin Feige at Shanghai Expo in China, after a fan dressed as the hero joined him on stage. The clip has since been posted on Twitter.
However, the only other Marvel movie due to be released before Doomsday is Spider-Man: Brand New Day, which will hit the big screen at the end of July, 2026. So, that means that in addition to Jon Bernthal's Punisher, Mark Ruffalo's Bruce Banner aka Hulk, and Sadie Sink's mystery character, Pugh's former spy may also be in the mix.
It is important to note that Marvel Studios has yet to confirm whether Pugh will appear in Brand New Day. But, considering the Marvel timeline, Brand New Day may lead directly into Doomsday, meaning Yelena could appear in a post-credits teaser that sets up the new Avengers movie. The only other Marvel Phase 6 title set to release before Doomsday is TV show VisionQuest.
Feige's comment adds yet another layer of mystery to the upcoming Spidey movie. Despite the film hitting cinemas in just over two weeks, we still don't know who the movie's main big bad is. The first Spider-Man Brand New Day trailer gave us our first look at baddies Scorpion, Boomerang, and The Hand, but the new synopsis teased a villain that no one can see. Who could that be? Plus, we still don't know who Sadie Sink is playing, despite fans being convinced that the star will suit up as Jean Grey.
Spider-Man: Brand New Day arrives this July 31, and Avengers: Doomsday hits screens on December 18. For more, check out our guide to all the upcoming Marvel movies and shows.
Expensive and pointless? Black Ops 1 and 2 PS4 and PS5 ports cost a lot of money and barely offer any upgrades over the originals
The promised PlayStation 4 and 5 ports of Call of Duty: Black Ops 1 and 2 have arrived. But unfortunately, these updated releases have left players disappointed at the quality offered for the price. Activision is charging £35 ($40) for each Black Ops re-release, meaning a total of £70 ($80) if you want both. These prices do not include their DLC packs, either, which is unusual given how most game re-releases these days typically come with all associated content bundled in.
Baldur's Gate 3's Astarion gets an extra ending cutscene, made by a modder keen not to finish up on a rather awkward note
Warning: Spoilers for Baldur's Gate 3 lie ahead.
Shagging Astarion in Baldur's Gate 3 might say various things about your taste in blokes, but it's understandably the way a lot of folks go. Not everyone's got the nerve to admit that they want to cast some spells with Gale's other wand. Anyway, a veteran BG3 modder's now come to the aid of those who reckon one of the white-haired fang lad's endings concludes a bit too abruptly for their liking, and without enough final hugs.
