Razer Unveils 8K HyperPolling Wolverine Controllers for Competitive PC Gaming

Razer’s Wolverine lineup uses 8,000 Hz HyperPolling to deliver ultra-low-latency input through high-resolution TMR thumbsticks crafted for competitive PC gaming.

Overview

  • The wireless Wolverine V3 Pro 8K PC supports true 8,000 Hz HyperPolling in both wired and wireless modes, representing Razer’s fastest controller polling rate to date.
  • Tunnel Magnetoresistance thumbsticks provide anti-drift longevity and higher positional fidelity unlocked by the elevated polling frequency.
  • At about 220 grams, the Pro model combines an ergonomic shell with four mouse-click back buttons, claw grip bumpers, Pro HyperTriggers, Mecha-Tactile PBT action buttons and Synapse 4 customization.
  • The wired Wolverine V3 Tournament Edition 8K PC removes wireless support and swappable thumbstick caps to hit a roughly $120 price point while preserving its core esports features.
  • Early reactions highlight that 8K polling aligns controller input with high-frequency mice and keyboards, though some question whether average gamers will notice the latency improvement.
