New in Roccat 8.0 (May 6, 2018)

  • Our most boring major update ever - sorry! Many software companies keep adding new feature to their software without ever optimizing and updating the code so these work better and more natively with the legacy code. This results in more bloated, buggier and slower software. We don't want to be like those other companies. So we've spend months and months recoding and reorganizing code. Fixing many bugs, increasing performance, this reduces resources which in theory also saves battery life too.
