Razer has announced the Tartarus V2 Pro, an ergonomic gaming keypad with 31 programmable inputs, Gen-2 analog optical switches, a drift-proof TMR thumbstick, and 8000Hz HyperPolling, priced at $199.99 USD / £199.99 / €219.99.

Razer has announced the Tartarus V2 Pro, the latest version of its ergonomic MMO- and FPS-focused gaming keypad. According to KitGuru, the device features Razer's new Gen-2 Analog Optical Switches, which support an adjustable actuation point between 0.1mm and 4.0mm along with Rapid Trigger sensitivity as low as 0.1mm. Each switch includes internal lubrication, foam dampening, and a durability rating of 100 million keystrokes, with textured double-shot PBT keycaps for wear resistance.

The keypad packs 31 total programmable controls, according to Windows Central, alongside a full-sized, anti-drift TMR thumbstick with three dedicated buttons for radial menu navigation. Razer has also carried over the Snap Tap and Rapid Trigger technology from its Huntsman V3 Pro keyboard, and the Tartarus V2 Pro supports up to 8000Hz HyperPolling — positioning it as an option for competitive FPS players as well as MMO users. An integrated LED display array lets users adjust actuation and Rapid Trigger settings directly on the device without opening software.

For personalization, Razer redesigned the wrist rest to be sliding and rotating, allowing it to be adjusted for different hand sizes and desk setups. Through Razer Synapse, users can store up to 24 configurable keymaps across three onboard profiles, letting the same keypad be reconfigured for different genres, from World of Warcraft-style MMOs to shooters like Counter-Strike 2.

The Tartarus V2 Pro follows the original Tartarus Pro and earlier V2 model, continuing a lineage that traces back to Razer's Nostromo and Orbweaver keypads. It's available now for $199.99 USD, £199.99, and €219.99 through Razer's online store, physical stores, and partner retailers.
