Glorious Unveils The Largest Portfolio Of Keyboards Ever Released
Glorious Gaming, a global leader in PC gaming hardware, today announces the largest portfolio of keyboards ever simultaneously launched, the GMMK 3 with over 1 Billion different hardware configurations.
Glorious believes that Gamers are the heroes of their own stories, and that they should have greater control over their peripherals. Rather than dictating what gamers have, GMMK 3 gives users the ability to customize every aspect of their keyboard, from aesthetics, to typing experience and performance, to match their gaming journey and needs.
In a recent study conducted by Glorious, it was found that over 85% of Gamers say that keyboard customization is important, and over 50% of Gamers switch out their keycaps. Glorious aims to empower users and make it easier than ever to customize every aspect of their keyboard, not just keycaps.
Your Look, Your Keyboard, Your Way
Offering 7 different aesthetic points of customization, the GMMK 3 gives gamers total control over the look of their keyboard, whether they are trying to match their gaming setup, home office or personality. The swappable top frame, bottom frame, rotary knob, badge, USB cable, keycaps and switch plate can all be changed independently and with ease, allowing users to craft their end game keyboard and to truly express themselves.
A Tailored And Tuned Typing Experience
Alongside the GMMK 3 aesthetic options, there are 3 ways to tailor the typing experience of GMMK
Users can choose from a range of Switches, Switch Plates and Gaskets to find their perfect sound and feel, whether they want soft and cushioned, loud and clacky or deep and thocky. There are 14 switch options launching alongside GMMK 3 to choose from in Linear, Tactile, Clicky and Silent varieties, all of which are available in both HE (Hall Effect) and Mechanical flavours. The swappable switch plates and Gasket Module System in GMMK 3, give users the ability to fine tune their typing experience for both sound and feel, with a range of switch plate materials (Plexi, FR4, Aluminium, Brass) and Module materials (Firm Silicone, Soft Silicone/Poron). GMMK 3 can become exactly what users need, whether they are gamers or typists.
Introducing Hall Effect Magnetic Switches
Gamer’s will not need to sacrifice style and aesthetics for performance with a GMMK 3 board. For the first time in a Glorious GMMK keyboard, Hall Effect technology will be taking centre stage to support gamers who need only the best performance. GMMK 3 HE boards paired with Hall Effect magnetic switches offer support for Rapid Trigger, Adjustable Actuation points and 4:1 Dynamic Keystrokes. All GMMK 3 HE boards are fully compatible with both 3 and 5 pin mechanical switches, and with the full suite of HE switches launching alongside GMMK 3, including our legendary Panda tactile, Fox Linear and Raptor clicky switches available for the first time in HE versions. GMMK 3 ensures gamers aren’t locked into the world of magnetic switches and can experience everything the world of keyboards has to offer.
A Full Ecosystem Of Accessories
The GMMK 3 family is backed by a full range of accessories to fully take advantage of the modularity of the GMMK 3. With a range of colour options for spanning Pink to Blue, Green to Red, and Black and White, GMMK 3 users will be able to find their perfect match.
With over 1 Billion Keyboards in One, which one is yours?
Launching alongside GMMK 3 is a new way to design and buy a dream keyboard, Boardsmith. Giving gamers the chance to fully customize their dream keyboard before it arrives.
