ROCCAT Vulcan II

For those who prefer a larger keyboard, the new Vulcan II is the company’s successor to the Vulcan 120 series keyboards. Keeping true to the sleek, low-profile design of the Vulcan 120, the Vulcan II is the first ROCCAT keyboard to feature the company’s new TITAN II Mechanical Switches. These switches come factory pre-lubricated for ultra-smooth actuation, have an optimized transparent housing for improved RGB lighting, and will deliver a durable lifespan up to 80 million keystrokes.

“ROCCAT’s Vulcan 120 series keyboards are synonymous with impeccable quality, top performance, and premium design elements, and the new Vulcan II pushes these areas further to create yet another full-size PC gaming keyboard unrivalled in its class. Since the original Vulcan keyboard debuted at Computex 2018, the series has earned countless editorial accolades and design awards, and has been a best-selling keyboard in Germany in 2022/2023. We expect these trends to continue with the Vulcan II Mechanical Gaming Keyboard, as evidenced in the extremely strong reception to the Vulcan II Max and Mini optical keyboards that launched late last year.”
