The Best Summer Gear for Hardcore Gamers

Summer's here, and that means it's time once more to upgrade the gear you're playing with.


The weather may be hot, but the games are exceedingly cool this summer. June and July are chock-full of some truly sizzling releases, like Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade, Neo: The World Ends with You, Monster Hunter Stories 2: Wings of Ruin, and The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword HD.

But that's not even including all of the games that came before what's still to release throughout the summer. There's a ton of hardcore gaming to be done instead of setting foot outside in the blazing hot weather, and that's why we've got some of the best gear for hardcore gamers right here for you.

Whether you need to bark orders to your squad in Call of Duty Warzone or you want to get in some raiding in World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade Classic, this equipment will get you going and make sure you're always good to go, from keyboards to mice and everything in between. Stay inside and stay cool with the SteelSeries gear built for hardcore gamers.

Arctis Prime

The SteelSeries Prime line is tailor-made for hardcore gamers, but if you need help deciding which product to pick up for all your summer gaming needs, the Arctis Prime headset is the way to go. It's extremely durable yet lightweight, features noise-isolating ear cushions, a Discord-certified ClearCast microphone, and the same hardware and tuning you get with the Arctis Pro. If you're going to be spending time hopping into Rainbow Six Siege's newest content with your crew or even strategizing in Call of Duty Warzone, you'll need this headset to facilitate it all.
