Razer, has just announced the open beta release of Razer Comms, an all-in-one communications solution for gamers.
Applying feedback gleaned from a community-based closed beta program, Razer Comms is the company’s in-house designed VOIP client, which now combines VoIP, instant messaging and IRC-chat features, allowing gamers the world over to connect with one service, free of charge. It also features an in-game overlay much like Steam and EA Origin.
Razer says, “Comms uses complex audio algorithms and an ultra-fast server infrastructure to deliver precise, crisp and clear communication with no timeouts or lag spikes, and it features advanced noise reduction and echo cancelation.” Its unknown at this point if Comms will integrate imto Synapse 2.0, Razer’s software for it’s latest peripherals that saves settings and peripheral customisations to a profile stored in the cloud.
“As a gamer, it gets pretty annoying switching between multiple clients all the time when playing and talking with your friends,” said Min-Liang Tan, Razer co-founder, CEO and creative director. “Razer Comms offers a way around that challenge. By connecting gamers globally through a versatile software solution without any additional costs for the user, Razer Comms is a way for us to give back to our passionate fan base.”
