Corsair's new 'Nightsword' gaming mouse has a dedicated Stream Deck button, and I'm deciding if I'd accidentally press it too much

Corsair's gaming keyboard, gaming headset, and gaming mouse on a white mousepad.

This may be hard for my colleagues and friends to believe, but I actually regularly use my Stream Deck. A little box with reprogrammable buttons that sits alongside your keyboard and mouse, I've found it a handy way of getting to certain tabs, to start and stop recording, and for generally being a bit more productive. Though the likes of the Corsair Scimitar Elite Wireless had buttons that could work like a Stream Deck, we hadn't received a mouse with a direct Stream Deck button…until now.

Corsair has announced the Nightsword v2 Wireless for Computex 2026, which is, in all other ways, a pretty standard gaming mouse. For $130, you get a 33K DPI sensor and 8,000 Hz polling (wired and wireless), though the 89 g weight is a little heavy. However, its standout feature is that dedicated Stream Deck button.
