Last year, Razer launched two products with haptic feedback being the front and centre of attention: the Freyja seat pad and the Kraken V4 Pro headset. We tested and reviewed both products and while the latter is very good, its steep price tag is a bit of a barrier. In the case of the Freyja, though, it's really about usage. After all, how many games are going to be better just because you can feel vibrations through your legs and back? Well, now that I've tried them together at GDC 2025, I know exactly what kind of gamer is going to love them.
To cut to the chase, it's sim racing. I sat on the Freyja and wore the Kraken V4 Pro headset while playing Assetto Corsa Competizione using a Razer/Fanatec direct-drive setup. After a few sighting laps in a Lambo, I set about trying to throw down some hot lap times, all while ignoring Razer's haptic gear rumbling away.
